Outstanding Performances

As others have indicated, this is an intimate setting. The staging is always interesting and the plays presented are usually thought provoking. The most recent production seen was Lungs. The title really gives no indication of what the play is. This play is intense at...More

A nice little theater - and the play was excellent

We had never been there before, but happened to walk by the theater a few minutes before their show started and thought, "why not?" We were given 2 seats behind a pillar ($30 for the two seats because of the "obstruction"). The theater is tiny,...More

A group of us went to see "The District Merchants" and what a marvelous play. It was so thought provoking and so well done. Unfortunately many of the things that were happening way back then are still going on today. The cast was marvelous. The...More

District Merchants is one of the best plays I have ever seen in one of my favorite playhouses

This theatre is so quaint and personable. The staff is fabulous and the small size of the theatre is perfect for an intimate experience. I live in Las Vegas and see shows on the strip weekly. This playhouse and the plays performed here can compete...More

Excellent performance, wonderful venue

Just saw District Merchants and cast was top drawer. Very intimate venue, great price and seats. Play was very relevant and provocative rework of Merchants of Venice. Incredible bargain.

Delightful childrens’ play

We took the kids to see Legend of Sleepy Hollow. The play was fun - the actors invited the kids in audience onstage several times to serve as extras. The acting was great and everyone had a good time. Childrens’ plays are about an hour...More

Cabaret

Good performance in a very small theater with 80% of the seats reserved for season holders only, and the only seats available are with obstructed views. To make things worst, the theater doesn't use A/C during the performance, and you feel suffocated in there. Although...More

All seating at Miners Alley playhouse is NOT general admission

The only seats available to the general public are a few obstructed view seats on the side. Seating is a last minute fiasco trying to get groups seats together. Ushers are not helpful. The majority of the seats (80%) are RESERVED BY SEAT for the...More

Excellent talent in an intimate setting

This was the first time we attended a show ("The Skulls of Connemara") but it won't be the last. This small theatre packs a punch. The acting was superb, the set was well-designed, and the production was great.

I believe A/C is a requirement in a closed space. Is there is a law to support that. Miners Ally Playhouse does not use A/C

AnswerShow all 2 answers

I checked with the attendant during intermission, and he stated that they shut down the A/C during the performance because it interfere with the sound system, even though it was 90 degrees outside.
