The Armory is a beautiful place in general. Outside they permit smoking and have a little thing to put the cigarette buts in, although its kind of hidden but I dont really blame them for that. you walk in and there is a room that people are allowed to go to during an intermission when they are having a play that night. The Armory isnt just an area for plays, they host comedy nights, rent it out for graduation parties and the photos I added was when they hosted the yearly sign up for section 8 housing! They say this was actually the biggest turnout they have had in a long time. The line was out the door, almost to the parking lot when we got there. We arrived around 8:30-8:45 ish and the whole thing started at 8am, my experience was not bad, it was what i was expecting knowing they only do this 1x a year.While I was there waiting in line I tried to appreciate that it was a place of many things, even a place for art. Local art for that matter and it was beautiful and unique and I wish I could have gotten so many more photos to share with you all! but if you want to see what I saw you have to go there! All in all, its a great place with a great vibe and lots of local culture.

Me and my daughter went for a kids performance of willy Wonka and the chocolate factory. It was as her 7 year old self said. The best thing she has done, thank you for the shows.

Brighton on Broadway...the talent is outstanding. Best vocalists around! I thoroughly enjoyed myself. When you hear of this annual event, do yourself a favor and get tickets! ♡

We attended the Anythink Cleo Parker Robinson dance workshop - it was a blast! My daughter had so much fun. The Armory itself is a well-maintained, elegant space that would be great for conferences or parties.

An awesome venue for my party, and not too expensive. The DJ didnt show up, however. Luckily I had set up a playlist beforehand. Overall, I would recommend this place to others.

A surprisingly good place for a metal show. Except for the bar line, they didnt have the capabilities for the crowd size.

We saw something happened on the way to the forum and it was a wonderful night.I love going to the buell and even as far as Broadway to see our favorites but this was truly a great. The Armory is a small local theater that doesnt know its suppose to be quaint. Instead it is truly lovely inside with the wood rafters design it was a beautiful building to see a show with great acoustic. The folks at the front of the house were as nice as can be and again the center is clean and new looking yet full of character. The show was very professional and truly a delightful night at the theater and only 3 miles from home=)cant wait to see more shows here. The only downside has to be again the size of space that effects seating. Chairs are folding chair design and placed with no room to exit a row without making everyone stand, even more so an issue accommodating larger folks. My husband is 62 and we needed a row he could move his seat around. The floor is level and the lack of rise means shorter folks or children in the back might miss out. So get there early for the right seat for you=)

We had my daughters graduation party at the Armory. It is a really nice venue. They have all the table and chairs, the bathrooms are very nice. There is a lot of parking in both the front and the back of the building. We had the facility provide DJ services. They played music from a flash drive we provided. We had about 100 people at the party and there was plenty of room for dancing and moving around. The pricing is absolutely amazing at $85 an hour. The staff at the Armory was very easy to work with.

Blues express, Eef and Shack are great. Too many of the other women do not play any instrument, scream instead of singing, yet are very fixated on themselves as if they had actual ability. The venue was good -- clean bathrooms.

Beautiful venue! We attended a friends graduation and it was beautiful and the sound system was great. We will probably be booking this place for future events. The only thing I didnt like was how they had a second event going on at the same time upstairs. I dont know if thats a usual thing but other than that then it was a nice place.

Went to see Fiddler on the Roof. Old fashioned narrow auditorium. Modern lights and sound. Performers were great and had fun doing this. Props and scenery were the low point. I plan on going back.
