Great view from any seat, very clean space, kind staff, easy to get in and out of the theater (my personal experience was walking and taking stairs from the mezzanine, so I cannot speak to the experience of mobility device users).

Never a bad seat in the house. Peter Pan Gone Wrong was phenomenal. Hilarious from 10 minutes before the play officially started to the last curtain. Absolutely a must see if you can.

This time we saw Hadestown and the cast was spectacular!! The ushers and staff at the theater were helpful and polite, and parking underground was easy to access. Parking was $10 for a Wednesday night after 5.
The Ahmanson Theatre opened in 1967, three years after the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, with a state-of-the-art configuration to provide variable seating capacity and accommodating a diverse selection of performances, from the intimate to the spectacular.
The countless productions by Center Theatre Group have included Hollywood giants such as Katharine Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Charlton Heston, among many others. It has been the host of theatrical world premieres, award-winning shows and the ideal stage for musicals and direct-from-Broadway productions.
The Ahmanson Theatre’s proscenium was recently renovated with state-of-the-art staging and sound equipment.
