A very unique building with plenty of history to go with it. There was a farmers market inside in the auditorium with wonderful vendors from the surrounding area. I will be back for the next event.

Fun venue for a great Tom Petty tribute fundraiser for Habitat for Humanity tonight. Fred the Bear and friends played 22 awesome Tom Petty songs. Beverages available for purchase. Old time theater with a castle theme. Older type seats, but plenty comfortable. Great place, wonderful time!

Lovely place! Beautiful art work and amazing staff. The events are trendy and fun! Something for everyone!

We went to see my grandchildren in the a play! Its always wonderful when children can get involved in the Arts!

I saw...Looney Lutheran Ladies....It was so funny...so super fantastic...they were the BEST...Loved everything about them️️️

Went to see Leading Ladies it was a funny fun play. The actors did a wonderful job.

We just saw Disney Newsies and the talent was awesome, the actor Jacks voice was awesome too although the acoustics and/or microphones were terrible! We sat in 2nd row and could only hear every other word, the orchestra was off and choreography was jerky and too strobe like. I expected more at the professional price of $17/ticket on a Thursday night.The talent was there it was just too much work to hear them.

Great people .

I am a professional musician been entertaining for over 50 years, I traveled all over including Amsterdam and never relied on BLUE MATERIAL. On July 20th, I saw comedy acts at the Paradise Center that discussed me with foul language and subject matter that doesn’t deserve to be called comedy. As they say in show biz, “CLEAN UP YOUR ACT “!

Very welcoming place for artists and art enthusiasts alike! A variety of events, shows, and classes offered throughout the year. Membership is very affordable which can get you discounts on classes and shows.

Very clean, very well maintained. Cute little shop and art gallery attached to the lobby. Went to see Last Train to Nibroc. It has a nice big proscenium stage; the medieval castle theme of the house was very, very odd. It didnt detract from the performance once the show started though.

Enjoyed the movie, craft and dinner at the Paradise Center for the Arts. It was a great evening with the wife and five of our grandchildren.

Good shows. I have been there couple of times which is great for both young and old. Have lots of different variety shows throughout the year.

Great venue for a concert; especially when Over And Back is playing!

The Halloween event was amazing for the kids. For sure recommend for everyone

The Best play Ive seen in years!!! Great cast and great audience. Way worth my time and money!!!

Such a great little theater gem in the heart of Faribault! The Merlin Players production of The Full Monty was wonderful!! (IJS)

The Buddy Holly concert was excellent!

Sound and seating is fantastic not a bad seat in the house.

Love all the different shows my wife and I have seen there!

Beautiful building. The lady at the front desk was helpful. I took a class here that was more telling than teaching. So thats pretty much the only reason my review isnt better. They do have plenty of activies going on all the time so maybe Ill try something else in the future

Nice choice of art. Casual setting, but well displayed and lit.

Great selection of entertainment options and classes. Three galleries of art to browse and possibly purchase from.

A Liebenberg and Kaplan gem.

Outstanding entertainment! Laughed and cried! Christmas Wedding was an amazing play. Well done by all Cast members. Congratulations.

We attended the first comedian night and it was fantastic! It sold out and was worth the 2 1/2 hour drive to see it. Wish we lived closer to attend all of the events held there.

We always enjoy our evenings here. Whether its a play or musical act we always feel we are among friends.

Beautiful historic theatre. Even if youre not going to a show, Id encourage you to walk in and take a look around. The lobby area boasts a working art gallery (visitors can see works in progress as well as finished works), photography in the open meeting room, a nice little gift shop, more paintings on the memorial wall, and a little bar to satisfy your thirst. Staff members are friendly and they have a surprisingly exiting lineup for a smaller town.

Great place for the Arts

Having a series of bad luck with this place. Canceled classes due to medical reasons which is fine, but its ben about a month and I still have not received my refund.

Very neat atmosphere!

Really nice theater. Though the seats are a tight fit if your overweight. Relly nice staff and building is clean.

Great shows, excellent artwork.

Loved the play. It was great!!

Great place to learn a new artistic skill or admire someone elses

A gem in Downtown Faribault! Professional performances, welcoming atmosphere in a cozy setting.All this and free parking!

Amazing architecture - it is like stepping back in time. Wonderful that this grand old theater is still open and kept in tip-top shape!

Love the variety of events they do! Absolutely love Blue Collar BBQ the second Saturday of August

Great local arts center. Galleries, classes, live theater and local flavor. You can see first rate entertainment at reasonable prices. Galleries are free to walk through. Historic building in heart of downtown Faribault.

The plays are fun and the artwork is amazing and locally done.

Great way to see local talent. We saw the play Annie.

We work on and watch community theater productions here, we attend concerts and comedy acts, we take classes and take our kids to classes, and we get to see a regularly refreshing art gallery. You have got to check this place out.

Great place to go for live entertainment. However, their sound system could use some improvements
