An excellent theatre! The design of the venue allows the audience to view any production with ease and comfort. All the seats are great seats! A Dayton gem!

Weve been series ticket holders for 15+ years. We like the intimate atmosphere and the great selection of shows. Great seats all around. We park off Jefferson Street behind the theater in the garage. They serve drinks that may be brought into the show. There are a few nice places to eat in the area prior to shows. The last show, Around the World in 80 Days, was superb.

We saw Lizzie Borden the musical, not my cup of tea but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The human race always does a good job. Ive never seen a show there that I didnt like. I recommend then highly.

This is my favorite thing about Dayton. It seems to have a long history of embracing both the fine and performing arts and The Human Race is one its true treasures.Theyre primary performing venue is in the Loft Theatre and its a gem in and of itself.The Human Race theatre company is a professional company that produces its plays from beginning to end.The sets, lighting, sound and all that thats needed to put on a truly professional play are wonderful. The sets in particular are always so interesting.The plays for each season cover a wide range of themes, genres and source material.Additionally the company holds classes, special practices, many other things that allow patrons and the public to have a more interactive experience.It was founded and is still operated by Daytonians who are all active in the community. They are also a supporter of Muse Machine.This seasons theme is Women of Influence. So far Ive seen Lady Day and the star of that production was amazing.Then I saw Cake. This is such an influential play. It has so many important thoughts woven throughout. It has some hilarious moments for sure and not all of lifes situations get tied up in a nice bow.But not only is the dialogue impactful, and as usual the sets are great but the acting in this was absolutely outstanding. The subtlety of facial expressions to convey conflict affected me deeply and inspired a lot of thought.My husband and 2 of my 20+ year old kids attended and we had lots of good conversation afterwards. Everyone was just enthralled with this production.I also happened to see the movie Harriet the same weekend. So suffice it to say I was truly impacted by women of influence. This season still has more plays to present, there are no bad seats at the Loft (I promise), everything is completely handicapped accessable, and The Human Race always has plenty of offerings going on.Go to their website and then call Ticket Center Stage and give a genuinely professional and locally produced theater (the only one in Dayton) offering by the The Human Race a chance to entertain you!!!!!!

The Human Race is a gem in Daytons crown. The company produces fantastic, diverse theatre and helms a variety of community outreach projects. The company also fosters the growth of new works. Dont miss your chance to see a show here!

Went to see The SantaLand Diaries, a one man show, done extremely well, and quite quite fun, humorous, and entertaining. This gem of a theater is well done in an older building, great seating, nice atmosphere, with nice shops and a nice snack bar to enjoy if you arrive a few minutes early.
