The Theatre was a Beautiful old but well taken care of and/or renovated theatre. There are some nice local restaurants within walking distance and we stayed at the Lancaster Marriott at Penn, also...

I have attended numerous productions. Dream Girls was great. Parking is normal downtown hassle. But the theater does a great job on their productions and I totally enjoy going here

Show was great - parking deplorable. Half an hour to get out of parking lot after the show. Theatre very crowded - convention of some kind when we were there.

Excellent show with an outstanding cast. This is a wonderful old theater with very good acoustics and not a bad seat in the house.

We love to attend local productions in landmark theatres. This is a gem. Comfortable seats, graduated heights so you don't have "head blocking" great elevated mezzanine seating, open second floor view to first floor lounge area. We saw a production of Dreamgirls which was loaded with great talent. Well worth a visit.

Nice intimate theatre; stage is not very large so it would be difficult to do a lavish production when comparing it to Walnut St theatre or Academy of Music in Phila. Show was well done, acoustics are good and not a bad seat in the house.

The Fulton Theatre consistently creates excellent productions of musicals and dramas with professional actors, many of whom are affiliated with Actors Equity. The theater building itself is a historic gem that's been refurbished. And, it's located in the midst of a large artistic community in downtown Lancaster. Season information at www.thefulton.org

Always enjoy going to this theater for concerts, and even the off beat Debbie Reynolds was here not so long ago. You really feel like you're a part of history when you sit in this place for any program.
