I went here with my 3rd-grader on a field trip to see a short play. The theater is well set up, the seats comfortable enough for the length of play we saw, and the lighting and acoustics were good.The only real complaint I have is centers around the situation with restrooms here. There are a number of signs letting patrons know that the theater has no public restrooms, and while this was not a problem for us during this play, if one of the kids had needed to use the restroom, I'm uncertain what would have happened. There are public restrooms in an attached location, and it is unclear why the theater hasn't made arrangements for their use, if needed.

Kathryn Severing Fox’s performance was stellar!! Everyone should experience her! The Weary Ramblers r one of my favs. The Temple is wonderful w the exception of the chairs at the tables. Several patrons complained of sore bones! Regardless, i would highly recommend this historic venue!!!

Quaint little theater. Perfect for a cozy performance. I sat in the very front row, but the seats behind me looked comfortable and seemed like everyone would have an unobstructed view. Good enough sound and acoustics. It's connected to Centro, but there are other restaurants nearby. I would have no problem returning.
