Harris Center - Folsom, California

This was our first time attending the Harris Center. So impressed. Staff was polite and helpful. Not sure if they were paid or volunteers but they were awesome. I brought in a light sweatshirt and was glad I did. The AC was working very well. Parking was provided, it requires a dashboard pass. I believe it is provided with ticket purchase. Since my wife bought the Tix, not sure if it cost extra. This is not a huge auditorium. In fact for the band we saw, Piano Men: Generations it was just right. The band seemed to really be enjoying themselves, audience interaction was high, a very intimate setting. We are planning to attend more events at this venue.

Came here to see Shen Yun, plenty of parking, parking was cheap. The tickets were average $140 PP, perfect for folks who enjoys performing arts, ballet and folk tales. The seats were small, with worn cushions,
And not meant for sitting for long periods and this show was over 2 hours long. They serve water, coffee and sparkling water during pre-show and intermission. There were no other drink options: No cocktails or wine. Overall it was a cool experience. The Harris center appears to be under construction so hopefully they will update the seats as everything looks outdated. Easy access to restaurants and freeway near by. They feature many different shows here. I hope they would update their menu with more snacks and drinks to include alcohol and better variety.

I enjoyed a lovely performance of Dear Evan Hansen. The house is lovely. The layout outside if the house is unique and the lines for drinks and concessions interesting. Everyone was very friendly. The cast did a great job as well. I would go back to this theatre for another show.

Great seats, questionable show. Parents thought it would be funny to send my wife and I to see "Menopause 2 the musical". Music is all parody of pop music, starting off with "I need a vino" based off "I need a hero". As one of 24 males at the show (the ticket taker was keeping count) out of a full house (over 700), i may not have been the target audience. Fun show, but we're still a little "young" for the content.

This is a beautiful venue. All the seats are great, there's a wonderful mix of shows and the volunteer ushers have a smile for everyone. It's SO much easier to see a performance here than driving into Sacramento and paying a high parking fee.

We just went the other day to see the Guardians of the Galaxy concert and it was superb. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

Everything about the band I saw and the people running venue were in perfect sync. For the musicians it was tribute band called “Zeppelin-Live.” And for the venue was Spinal Tap. Between thunderous cacophony emanating from stage and the people in the audience yelling at the sound man, it was all a blur. Image going to see Led Zeppelin songs but unable to hear the guitar because all you can hear is overwhelming echoing bass and drums and the guitar mixed so far back in the mix it seemed like a memory. I walked out after 5th song. Yeah, it was that bad. Quite laughable. The bassist was about 80 years old dressed like a 20-year old JP Jones with a full 60's beatle bang -cut wig. Absolutely preposterous. Nothing bad about his playing but the get-up was so distracting it was visually alarming. But that was only undone by the lead singer. OMG, is all I can say. This guy was high as a kite staring down at the audience grinning ear -to-ear at a gaggle of 70-year old men with their wives in the first three rows with creepy intentions. Most distracting was the ill-fitting blonde wig and the mid-cut shirt buttoned at the bottom showing what appeared to be a fake set of weigh-lifting pecks Talk about weird… Just in the 5 songs I hung around for there was on-stage bickering going on stage between the drummer, guitarist obviously pointed at the lead singer. The drummer never smiled once and had an expression on his face of disgust as hit the drums in anger. The guitarist just kept his head down not to give away any facial expressions regarding his embarrassment of the lead singer. At $60 a show you would think the Harris Center would not a high school AV guy working the sound board plus find a band that doesn’t have a lead singer in need a drug rehab. Though kudos to the guitarist as he was top rate. But, how can you enjoy a band when the band themselves are not enjoying themselves. This is a major Harris Center fail. They should supply a partial refund to any paying customer that complains for supplying a non-professional performance by the band and the venue itself (sound). .

So much fun! Beautiful theater. It is in a really nice location in Folsom. We saw C.S. Lewis Further Up and Further In. Great play.
