Go early to figure out parking. It is horrible downtown

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

The facility is beautiful. But, the wonderful new seats that were recently installed are awful. I thoroughly enjoyed the performance, but the physical discomfort was not pleasant. The chair seats are too short and the space allowed per person is not sufficient,
