My experience here was fun. I enjoyed the ambiance. Its located walking distance from a few bars, so once you park you can have a few drinks and watch a movie. Ill definitely be going back soon.

Best Damm show ive ever seen. Kimbra was amazing. This place is Kool. I just want to know what those big rocks out side are from. I came early and waited for hours. No one showed up till about 530 and Kimbra passed right in front of me. I didnt have my glasses so I didnt see it was her till she was right in front. Missed opportunity to say hello. :(

Secretly

This venue hosts the United States Weight Category Kyokushin Karate Championships every year the last Sunday in January. It is located in the Little Tokyo area and is a wonderful venue to watch knockdown Karate action live. There are nice places to eat nearby and within walking distance of Union Station if you dont mind walking a little.

We came to watch the Green Band from Japan perform. They are amazing! The theatre had a nice design and the acoustics were great!

Ive visited this theatre several times for different events. Its small, but nice.

Really enjoyed Live Talks with Flea - only prob was it was very warm in the balcony section

I loved the theater it was fun performing there along with a felow group of performers.everyone was so nice and respectful

Seats are very narrow even for someone who is wearing medium size clothes. Limited capacity bathrooms with long lines. It was disorganized at the entry. You are supposed to exchange your printed at home ticket with their ticket. There was a very long line outside. No mention by the staff that everyone in this line had already exchanged their tickets. Instead, staff came to the line and asked whether any of us had priority tickets.

Amazing venue that always has great programming.

Great medium size theatre with cool shows. Saw madama Butterfly. Great production but really Pinkerton needs to be beaten to death!

Very nice intimate theatre. Production of Madame Butterfly was excellent. Will be looking forward to upcoming productions.

Nice mid size auditorium in the middle of downtown perfect for a small graduation or performance..

The seating was miserable. There is no middle aisle, so to get to the middle seats you have to scoot past umpteen people.

Love it nice place highly recommend

This is a great venue named after a great Japanese American. George AratanI

Venue is good. But never park in the next door garage. Took half hour to get out as paying when you leave and slow exit cause much delay. Theater is comfortable.

Saw Allegiance with George Takei. Enjoyed it immensely. The theater is very nice, not too big, and the acoustics were fine. Highly recommend it.

Great venue for live events and a very good screening room for the LA Asian Pacific Film Festival.

This is a nice theatre. Pretty comfortable. Not enough bathrooms though. The line at intermission is ginormous! I tried using the assisted listening device and it didnt seem to be working. Luckily, I didnt really need it for this musical.

Wonderful programming! Comfortable space that feels intimate. The acoustics are ok - better than Pantages, not as great as the Disney lol so you may want to take that into consideration when you select seats. Views are consistently good.

Needs more restrooms, and the seats themselves were a bit of a tight fit (and Ill not a large person), but the aisles were wide enough that people could pass by without everyone having to stand up. Which is important because in the balcony, there was no center aisle, so all 50 ppl had to get in one side or the other. Nice size venue to watch a live performance. Full orchestra pit to boot!

Great auditorium. Went to hear Bernie Sanders.

Awesome theatre. Saw my daughter perform.

This theater is a hidden little gem. Every seat has a good view and good sound. Parking was right next to theater.

Great venue, adjacent parking $10 cheap for LA, and by adjacent I mean exit onto the plaza across which is the theater. Great accoustics, comfortable seats. Friendly staff. We saw Allegiance. Very powerful, very timely, very thought provoking.

The Theater: Mid-size theater. I was sitting on the mezzanine, still good view. They do sell drinks (including alcohol but cant bring into the theater)The Show: Allegiance is AWESOME!! George Takei is fantastic. He is really in the show from the beginning to the end. The story is amazing... I got really emotional at the last scene. Highly recommended!!!The Parking: Parking structure with theater validation pre-paid $9. Street metered parking (some side streets, free after 6pm)

Place is very clean.lots of seating although sitting in the center is best.

The theaters located next to the Japanese Buddhist Temple (exact name escapes me at the moment), and the entrance of the theater faces the quad.People collecting tickets are right at the door (one entrance), this is pretty much a 1 show/screen large theater of a semi-sphere. There are multiple doors into the theater based on where your seats are located.Overall, comfy seats, good audio, large stage and screen. To my knowledge, a lot of independent films are shown here, especially during the film festival, and the cast/crew will come up on stage afterwards for Q&A. I also understand that there are live performances as well.

My Wife and I, & my 18 year old son really enjoyed the show. The only problem, we felt was the seats are so small.Im not a big person and my who only a 140 lbs .other than seat it a Great Show.

Great venue for acoustic performances. Not a bad seat in the house

The location is great and the acoustics is half decent for a community theatre. Unfortunately, the parking is horrible. It took us over 50 minutes to get out of the lot after our concert.

Very nice facility. Easy to get to. Finding parking is difficult and pricey.

Loved the event, the staff where friendly. I will be back for more events in the future

The best in little tokyo

Had a wonderful time seeing Allegiance here. The garden was wonderful for hanging out during intermission.

The centerpiece of Little Tokyo (along with the Community Center). A pro venue in every way.

A great gem of a theater put the parking really sucks

Always has great shows to watch

Saw Allegiance. Great show. Convenient parking.

This is the home to many great live shows in Little Tokyo. From the New Years Kotohajime to Traditional Noh, Kabuki Dance, and Taiko Shows. Check with the theater or the JACCC for events.

Very nice, intimate theater.

A decent auditorium

Love the theatre & community !

Excellent space for performance.

Great theater

Fun excursion in Los Angeles

Slow process overall.

Very clean facility .

Watched Allegiance! Bravo!

Nice theater
