Our whole family just watched Murder On the Orient Express. It was a great performance, with an extremely clever modular transforming set for the train. Everyone loved it including adults, kids, and teens. Great seats up in the front row of the balcony!

Always good shows. Saw 2018 season opener - Pride and Prejudice and loved it, of course. Any seat in the house is great and you cant go wrong!

Ive seen nearly every production offered in the nearly year and a half Ive lived here and have never been disappointed. Moreover, the production quality, acting, directing, and venue are all superb. ALT does a diverse season of shows, there is not a bad seat in the house, (check out the beautifully renovated lobby and bathrooms), and the prices are very reasonable for such professional quality theatre.

My boyfriend and I saw Murder on the Orient Express this past weekend and loved it! Im a big Agatha Christie fan and this regional premier did not disappoint in the slightest. The entire cast was fantastic. The guy who played Poirot was spot on for what you would imagine a real life Poirot to be. And the guy who played Bouc was an audience favorite. He was hysterical and great in that role! This was our first time at this theater since moving here so I dont know what they bathrooms were like before, but they are beautiful. (Everyone seems to mention the bathrooms in the reviews, lol.) We will definitely be back!

OMG, what an amazing performance. We just saw Mama Mia and it blew me away; youd have thought the cast and crew we high paid NYC professionals. This is a must see performance. Plus, the Albuquerque Little Theater is a terrific venue ... WOW

Great fun! Never been disappointed! It will be even better as soon add the new bathrooms are installed. Its not super fancy, but has great charm. Be sure to come on time, as its no fun to be that late person who has to crawl over others to get to your seat.

This venue is a gem. It is an intimate and comfortable venue for 7-8 local theater productions with a mixture of dramas, comedies and musicals. They are working on many improvements to the venue. The talent is surprisingly good.

ALT is simply awesome. This small, local, live theater/stage play venue impresses with its dedication to keeping its audiences captivated with great entertainment. There isnt a bad seat in the place... and the staff and team are constantly making improvements. Plenty of easy parking and moments away from great local restaurants... its a perfect way to top off an evening. From casual to formal, everyone is welcome... ALT is just good, clean entertainment. Go! Enjoy!

I had SUCH a great time here watching The Addams Family Musical (it was great, btw) The space is very large and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of parking that was present. They have tables for sitting before and after the show which I thought was perfect for theater goers...the only thing that was lacking was the amount of bathrooms in the place. For such a big space, there were not very many stalls. I had to run for the bathroom while the play was still going on, just to avoid the lines. Overall, great place though! Cant wait to see Annie!!

Albuquerque Little Theatre, located in Old Town has been in operation for almost 90 years. They offer about 7 plays throughout the year and do a nice job. The play now being performed, Its a Wonderful Life, was a fine production with everyone, especially the lead, making all of us believe that we do have a wonderful life. The next production, Shrek The Musical, should also be fun for the family, but ALT sometimes produces adult themed dramas so check with the box office when buying tickets.ALT has survived over the years despite its age. Old theatres are in constant need of repairs and improvements. In the last few years a new stage floor, much-needed new drapes on the stage and a new sound system have greatly improved the viewing experience. Theyre currently in the process raising money to redo the bathrooms on the main level and build new bathrooms on the balcony level. Regular theater goers, especially the ladies, will appreciate that.ALT consistently offers a wide range of theatre experiences, so if you dont see one you like now, there very well be several others you will enjoy.

Alt has been a mainstay of community theater for nearly 90 years. As fresh today as it has always been, my wife and I regularly enjoy great mysteries, musical, & comedy. Highly recommended!

Saw Shrek, The Musical at the ALT. Pretty good performance in an great historical theater. They are working their way through upgrades but the building is still 90+ years old so it has some expected problems (can get warm if you have a full house).

Ever wanted to sit in orchestra but could not afford it ? This place is for everyone. I enjoyed high class theatre experience in the second row. The expressions are so clear from here. We watched pride and prejudice. You can come down in casual clothes. No one cares. The business is theater and entertainment and not what you wear or do. Do give it a try and feel proud of this community of artists as they keep this theater alive with their nominally priced amazing performances. Thank you so much alt!!!!!!

Always reasonably priced. Leg room tight if you have leg problems definitely get isle seat. They are finally working on bathrooms. One 2 stall bathroom for women is inadequate. Intermission mile long line so you have to miss some of the play in order to get in bathroom.

Heres a lovely gem! This is the third oldest continuously operational theater this side of the Mississippi. Thats 89 years! The seats are comfy and Im usually worried about that at 2m (63). Theres ample room for knees and the armroom is generous. Nearby dining makes a show into an entire evening. Ticket prices are far too low and the quality of the productions are comparably above average. Bring your friends to a fabulous time that everyone will thoroughly enjoy.

This is a community gem, entering its 80th season or something around that. They put on so many shows every year, with community members, young and old. Its always so much fun to spend an evening or afternoon at the ABQ Little Theatre!

I never knew this place even existed, but was excited when given the chance to see a play there. The rendition of A Christmas Carol I thought was going to be cheesy turned into an unexpected miracle of joy and was fun. I love live theater and have loved it for many years ever since high school when I got to be a set person. The set was one piece and I never expected to see clowns in A Christmas Carol but was pleasantly surprised to do so. Thank you Albuquerque Little Theatre for an unexpected glorious time.

By far the Best theatre company in town. The acting is always phenomenal, the singing is heavenly and the costumes and set are always seamlessly gorgeous. I have seen many shows here and have yet to see one I do not like or one that disappoints. Although I do wish they would involve the community youth more in casting of shows. This is the company to which I compare all other theatre to. Long live ALT!!!

Review №83

This is a delightful theater for stage productions. It has a very intimate feel, in spite of seating about 500 people. There isnt much of a lobby, but the seats are comfortable and well situated. The last production I saw did have less than ideal audio production, making it difficult at times to understand the dialog, but overall, this is a great place to see stage productions.

Watching Shrek The Music here made me wonder what Shreks [Outskirts O Burque] family would say about his newfound ogre love at the next family reunion.[TIA SHREK]: Mi hitoo, ju know that I love you no matta what, and I will aalways love you. But ssitoo... You gotta realize that thaaat seenging n daansing cheecks your Somehow Cousin..! Shhttshht -- dont ask me how I know these thing, I cannot -- *belch* -- but I know she ss by hher lookings you! Hahh haa! Dont worryy, mi hito man.. Ogre wants what orge antss... Tio knowss...[TIO SHREK crushes and eats his odd smelling cigarette, adjusts his oxygen tank valve, and manages a breathless cackle before returning his distant gaze to the horizon or something else melancholy enough to make you stop reading this drollery and potentially incestious fanfic. Shame on you... And shame on me... Shame... ].

We saw Its a wonderful Life. Great performance! However if anyone has seen the the movie, theyd know that the play would not be a great pmace to bring small children. I know even my 9 year old wouldnt be the best audience. Fortunatly, the patrons with small children quickly learned and left the audience. But, what a waste of money, seats and time. FYI....
