Fun local playhouse. Tickets are cheap and the productions are cute and local. Most of the attendees are from nearby. Condiment/food selection is limited and a bit random. Seating is dinner table style. Have fun, dont expect Broadway, and youll have a fun night.

Saw Cabaret which was different than the movie or the Broadway play but I felt gave an excellent depiction of the current resurgence of racism, bigotry and general intolerance towards people of different gender persuasion or socio-economic background than our own. It did so with a snappy soundtrack and some genuinely lighthearted moments but the message was not lost on me. The cast was fabulous!

Loved the performance of Matilda, I highly recommend the play to all ages.The venue was not what I expected. Its essentially a room, attached to the Coronado community center, which fits about 24 small round tables, with barely elbow room with the table next to you if all 4 people are at your table. The seats were padded, and comfortable, but because the seating was all at one level, it was hard to see over peoples heads.Already having paid for tickets, they have the child performers stand at the door with buckets extended, asking for donations, which is uncomfortable. This was in addition to the slices of cake they sold for $5 each and their refreshment stand.I understand that theyre a small company, and I applaud them for their efforts, but if youre getting tickets, make sure its at the front of the room.

Ive both attended as well as appeared in performed at the Coronado Playhouse. This theater offers a quaint, charming, and inviting atmosphere. The cabaret seating is a bit unusual, but still allows you a very good view of the stage. You wont be disappointed.

Great shows to be seen here. Highly recommend. Raised stage. Seats about 150, guessing. Nice restrooms. Talented casts perform here.

Its a very Cabaret Boutique Style of a theater. They have tables that seat 4 (really 3 is comfortable) it is a very small space that when at full capacity it seats about 75 to 100 at max.The stage is half the size of industry set standards, however, it makes it feel very quaint and cozy.Theres really not a bad seat in the house, but, if you have physical or physiological issues, DO NOT SIT in the middle; very difficult to navigate between your seating and you will bump into every patron if you need to dart to the restroom or hit the bar; your best bet is seating at either sides of the house.As for the productions...it all depends on who is the producer and director.Just because a show is know in popularity, doesnt mean the cast, lighting, set design will be top notch.But, hey, theater is dynamic and each show is always a unique experience.

Its a community playhouse that can afford to hire some decent acting talent, but its still basically a community playhouse. Its a small intimate venue with tables. They have basic snacks, beer and wine. We saw Cabaret and it was pretty darn good.

The cast gave 100% of themselves, in their very gifted presentation!!!

Very good cast and production. Free Shakespeare presentations every year!

Intimate venue. All good views of the stage. The concession stand is reasonable and some of the seats where at small tables, which was really nice. We also like the adaptation of the play we saw.

Hated nothing. Saw a production from students..very nicely done.

Very nice setting, parking available on street, inexpensive and good productions. Support this community theater.

Great little theatre. Parking is a bit tight, but easy to walk into town for a bite and drink.

This was a wonderful experience in a modern well maintained community theater. Its Coronado- of course its good!

Very intimate table seating with good view of the play throughout. Acoustics could have been better if the players wore mics or if a sound system was provided on stage. However, the ticket prices are very good and most plays are well done and interesting for an amateur production.

Worth the drive excellent Plays

The show was a knock out. Very well directed and performed. It made for a wonder evening out and well worth the trip from Carlsbad.

Not a bad seat in the house! Very personal and friendly with inexpensive options at the snack bar. We really enjoyed our experience and will be seeing another play here again very soon.

Great art.. must watch show about USS midway

Lovely venue with bistro tables and wine and beer available, right by the bay. But parking is horrible on a Sunday afternoon! I recommend another day or getting there very early.

We have been season ticket holders here for many years. A strong theater company. This particular performance was a delight

The Playhouse is a comfortable place for viewing events. However, the seats could be more cushioned for two-hour viewing. Also, the aucoustics seemed lacking for the low-speaking ADAMS FAMILY yesterday. At times, I would have liked the music to be louder, although perhaps it was purposely low? The Playhouse itself is a beautiful building inside with its attractive walls adorned in a classic fashion. I like taking time to admire the surroundings each time I enter and leave the Playhouse.

Intimate beautiful venue

Weve seen several shows at this venue. Intimate, casual, fun! The shows have been great! They do a free Shakespeare once a year, with donations if possible. This years Shakespeare pick is Much Ado About Nothing, and it was phenomenal.

Fantastic for a big event like a wedding

Great production values; excellent play. Terrible space; sat in back tables and could barely hear. Whole areas of stage barely visible. Wont be back!

They are one of the best community theatres in San Diego County. They consistently win awards for their productions.

Pleasant theater. Great show, we just watched sugar. Loved that the orchestra was part of the backdrop. Cant decide if I liked the seating though. One hand, sitting around a small table makes you feel more apart of the theater. Yet I couldnt always see all the action on stage from my seat.

I love this theatre. There are no bad seats since its a small theatre. The staff is very friendly, the actors are very talented and the producer is amazing. Its a joy from beginning to end. I look forward to many more visits.

Such a great little venue, every seat there has a great view! It was nice to have a small table for our drinks/belongings. The Snack Bar has great snacks for purchase, also beverages and alcohol. My 1.5 year old niece loved the show and the fountain and grassy area outside is great for intermission. All the staff is very helpful and kind, we will be back!

Best place ever

Have seen several shows and always come away with feeling as if I was part of the show

Never visited as a patron-- my business was either as an actor or a director. However, Ive observed their treatment of their guests, which is always top notch, with deference. Their productions are much of the same, high quality that one could hope for from an intimate venue.

We enjoyed seeing the play Joseph and the amazing Technicolor dream coat

Enjoyable afternoon! Very good entertainment!

Intimate space. Very charming. Play was great

Lovely theatre for a fun community play. Glad we stopped in on vacation. Very professional

Fantastic community theater and stage.

Great place ,, clean open , friendly people just an all around great place to go and have fun

We saw the Adams Family musical. Very well done intimate theater.

Great theatre, and a great atmosphere.

Watched cabaret, awesome show.

Incredible acting, fabulous setting, wonderful experience

Fantastic show!! Wonderful

Good production quality. Good choice of plays. The venue is shared with a ballroom so there can be some noise from next door occasionally.

I have always had a great time at any production!

Attended The Addams Family musical here a few weeks back and it was fantastic

The Adams family was fabulous... Best date night in a long time!!

Great/intimate venue. I love it here.

Good little theater - saw Nutcracker performed by SD Ballet - one of the best productions I have seen!

Great little place to see a play

So much fun! I joined as a member

Their shows are so good you wouldnt think it is community theater!

Ive never been to a better playhouse in my life including more formal shows like the nutcracker. The staff is all volunteers and ran by an elite group of performance superstars. If you havent been then get there for their next show!

Fun shows for relatively cheap. Lots of talent in the acting although the tech is a little light.

Cozy and intimate. Very nice staff.

It is such a beautiful location.

Tonight Show was Little Shop of Horrors done is a musical it was great

Wonderful newer cabaret space part of community civic center

Cute intimate venue with fun plays and a nice staff.

Great little venue to catch a show.

Ive seen four productions here and each of them have been wonderfully memorable experiences. I look forward to going again as soon as I can.
