I really like this little 1930s theater, which I've been to for live stand-up comedy and quirky movies. The design is cool (very 30s), the size is just right, and the staff are very friendly. The seats do not have cup holders (you've been warned!) but are comfortable, at least for me - a short woman. I appreciate the very varied selection of movies, from the Rocky Horror Picture Show to Tokyo Cowboy and Reagan. The live shows feel intimate because of the venue's relatively small size.

I love this place. The charm and ambiance are awesome. They do have some limited food options and even cocktails/beer. It's old and well maintained and a wonderful piece of local area history that we are lucky to still be able to enjoy.

I went there to see the Prince tribute concert w my family. It was my 1st time there and I really didn't know what to expect. But, overall i was pleasantly impressed and enjoyed myself there at the concert and the venue.

Upon arriving...the parking was fairly easy to find a parking space. We pretty much walked right up to the front entrance w a minor wait to get in while security checked bags. But, it was fast moving. And, ultimately we didn't mind bc it was for our safety.

We were then pointed towards our seats and were able to navigate ourselves without any problems. We had a total of 5 tickets purchased and we had the cluster of seats that are seated closest to the wall. It was nice and convenient for us to all be sitting comfortably together. I was however I brought in my jacket to wear inside. Had I not done so I would've been awfully cold and probably uncomfortable the entire show. So just keep that in mind to those of you that purchase those tickets near the wall. For some reason there is a chilly breeze that comes through somehow over there on the sides.

As for the concert...overall I thought the band was pretty good and I would recommend seeing them if you get the chance too! And if you never have been to the State Theatre of Modesto...do yourself a favor n check it out. I'm glad I did. Supposedly they have a pretty good restaurant next door to this theatre that is good & worth checking out if you have the opportunity to.

We went to see The Wizard of OZ recital by Steps Dance Arts Center. The theater was almost full and the recital and the two intermission when very well. During a few of the numbers Steps use the front row as part of the stage since the stage is not that big but It turned out really nice to see all the dancers like if it was in 3D. My family had a woderful experience and our ballerinas had an EXCELLENT performance .

We decided to take in a showing of Leonid and Friends at the State Theatre in Modesto (if you've not heard of Leonid and Friends, they are a Russian musical group who primarily plays covers of the band Chicago but also performs some EW&F tunes). It was a long drive for us but well worth it.
The theater is in downtown Modesto and holds about 550 guests in the main section. In addition to the regular seating, there are open areas for those with disabilities.
The theater had good acoustics and the seats were comfortable. In the foyer, the theater sold candy, popcorn, drinks and adult beverages. Restrooms were clean and the foyer was decorated for Christmas.
I liked the feel of the theater. It reminded of my younger days, attending our local theater for concerts, movies, and other shows.
My wife and I had a great time and really enjoyed the show and the theater.

I love older theaters, and this one did not disappoint. The staff are all friendly and we enjoyed ourselves at the concert. The acoustics are not perfect, but thatbis to be expected in an older place...BUT... it definitely didn't stop us from enjoying ourselves! We will go here again ?
