My husband, my sisters and I had the pleasure of attending two shows this past March at the Savannah Theatre. We all enjoyed both shows immensely. The Beat Goes On and Southern Nights consisted of musical numbers from the 50's, 60's up to the present and were over way too soon. The cast is excellent and very outgoing. The best... More

"The Beat Goes On" was a hit with our entire family! The music was fantastic and our little guy was bouncing in his seat with excitement. Between the lights, live music and dancing, there was soo much to hold his attention. We thoroughly enjoyed every second of the night. Such a talented group of performers. Also, I am happy to...

If you're over 50, it seems like you'll love this show. If you're white and from Appalachia, it seems like you'll love this show. If you're none of those things, it'll depend on how cheesey and/or country you're feeling that day. (Jingoism at end of Southern Nights was creepy.) (And these guys are actively promoting Trip Advisor during the show,... More

Visiting my grandparents in Savannah. Spotted this place on Trip Advisor. Grandmother confirmed that the shows here are incredible. I did not anticipate how amazing it would be. We laughed, sang along and danced for 2+ hours. Such a talented group. They also made a point of thanking our military men and women, which was really neat. Do not miss... More

We decided at the last minute to see the show Southern Nights. It was a very well done and the theatre was intimate.

Friends had recommended this theatre to us when they heard we were visiting Savannah. We’re so glad they did. We saw the show, "The Beat Goes On", which is a musical revue of hit songs from the 60's, 70's and 80's. Not only is the playlist excellent, but the presentation was great and the 8 or so performers were wonderful.... More

We saw "The Beat Goes On." WOW. The costumes, the dancing, the music and singing is top notch. This cast is incredibly talented and professional. It's obvious that they love what they do and their goal is to make the audience smile. We'll be back!

My family and I attended both The Beat Goes On and Southern Nights. Over the years we have been to over 200 plays and musicals. We have seen it all. These 2 productions were among the absolute best we have ever seen. For pure entertainment value it was probably the best. The singing and dancing were great, the ladies beautiful,... More
