Virginia Samford Theater was wonderful. We saw Legally Blond the Musical. High energy and very entertaining. The Theater itself was comfortable and had great acoustics.

Whether they are seasoned actors or new to the theater, this a wonderful place for kids and teens to to participate in musicals. great productions! parking is scarce so that can be a pain if you have to park further away and walk.. particularly when the weather is bad. but for the experiences, its worth it. the staff that helps make these productions come to life really do a fantastic job!

The musical we saw was so fun. It really was the perfect thing to get you in the holiday spirit. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever was funny and heart-warming. The kids did an excellent job! The theater was built in 1927. Its so cool inside. Loved the whole experience! No seat is a bad seat.

We love this venue! It is quaint enough to feel intimate, yet large enough to provide a proper Birmingham theatre experience.

For some reason this theatre blocks the avenue behind it with people after a show. It is located in between apartment buildings where parking is already limited. While trying to get home It took ten minutes to get 75 feet to park. While navigating through the large group of several hundred one guy was trying to fight me because I was trying to drive down the ave that is allotted for my buildings parking. Seriously need to have someone navigating people out of the street to prevent injuries and not subject locals to threats simply for trying to park.

Very nice perfomance. Theater is of course very old. Seating is close. Parking is a big challenge. Done a nice job on making lobby, rest rooms and other public areas look nice.

Did not actually go inside.Just check to see if they took regular talent off the street but usually closed and locked up when I do go by.
