I love coming to this theater. Every Concert of the ISO is spectacular. The seats are great and there is a great audio, no matter where you are sitting. I love to come for the Christmas “Yuletide” , it is just magical and also for OPERA and for other events and concerts. I feel so grateful we have this amazing place to enjoy and live art and music! The 4 stagioni of Vivaldi Concert was one of a kind!!! A beautiful jump into Baroque era!!!
Came here for Beethoven's 7th symphony and it was an awesome experience. The symphony was professional and I could not detect any mistakes. The maestro Jun Märkl conducted the symphony by heart and did not use any sheets. Beautiful theater with amazing acoustics. The screen was not full stage width and could be larger, they have Star Wars a new hope in February and I would be more interested if the screen is double or triple the current size. The lounge feels very cozy but could use more seating and felt cramped. Long line for restrooms at intermission with only ~4 urinals and ~3 stalls so try to get there early and use it before and after the concert if possible. Water and soda for $5. Alcohol for $12. The parking structure attached has event parking for $10 + $0.75 fee on Spothero. Try to arrive early to park on lower levels, we were on level 5 and we had to wait 20 minutes before the traffic moved at all. They have monthly free chats then an ISO performance. Tickets at Indianapolissymphony.org. They also have a 3 for $99 package. This is a great place to gain some culture and cleanse the soul.
This evening was an incredible experience. First, the staff is exceptional, every face had a smile, and they treated guests with respect. Second, the theater is beautiful! Third, do not pass up the opportunity to see the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra play the score of your favorite movie!
There really isn’t a bad seat in the house! The venue feels intimate. I prefer sitting in an upper level as I can see the entire stage.
Amazing show and amazing place!
