Nutcracker Ballet, Always a Magical way to begin Christmas. Was great as always, even though only 50-60 people attended.Problem: Signs say Mask wear is mandatory. Not enforced. We wont be back until it is.

Wonderful performance of A Soldiers Tale during this difficult time of Covid; however, Reilly did everything they could to adhere, still, to all Covid safety precautions. I felt totally safe while enjoying this magnificent performance.

Went and saw a acoustic country concert there and it was fantastic. The sound was fantastic and you didnt walk out with your ears ringing as you do at other concerts. Great seating and comfortable.

Great facility! Seems to be very new, with not a bad seat in the house. Also really clear sound. Loud enough for sure, without blowing your eardrums out. We saw Leo kottke and it was a delightful evening. The seats are comfortable with lots of legroom.

I saw Marty Stuart at the Reilly in October. I had seen him in concert, so I knew I would love the show.But the best part was that the Reilly had replaced the tiny airline-size seats with normal size seats, so I saw a great concert without suffocating to death!Although Marty Stuart would almost be worth holding my breath for 2 hours.

My granddaughter and I went to the Nutcracker at the center. It was worth every penny. We were close to the stage. We almost felt like we were part of the production. My only complaint is the seats were a little narrow. But Im a fatty so you cant go by me. Im so glad this building was preserved.

Beautiful remodel of an old building. Clean and inviting. Every seat has a wonderful view. The sounds was on pitch, crisp, and loud enough to feel the music. I can’t wait to return for more concerts.

Make sure you’re staffed enough when doing a production. we paid for balcony seats and were told when we arrived we had to placed else where because they didn’t have enough ushers. production was alright but food is extremely overpriced.

Amazingly positive experience with the assistance of the person in the box office (Ms.Pamela?). I had problem with using valletini website to transfer my ticket to a friend. It did not work, I left message and promptly received a call from the box office and problem was solved . Bravo!

My first visit. Nice little auditorium. Odd looking ceiling, looked like a barrel vault made of wood slabs. Sound system could be improved. And I couldnt figure out what they were trying to accomplish with the continuous bass thumping.

Center was great , very clean and respectful. Prices on drinks both alcoholic and non-alcoholic (sodas) were too high for what you get. $2 for small cup of soda and dont even get to keep the can.

Jo
Review №40

This was an amazing show. I just wish the audience would be more respectful of the singers. Theres always a few drunks scattered in every crowd, who try to yell conversations over the music. Go to the lobby if you want to talk. Shut up and listen to the music, these guys played their hearts out, and the the audience paid to hear the performance. Talk about who you laid in High School after the show, ya Morons. Loved the band, well done!

This small indoor concert hall offers great views of the stage from any seat, comfy chairs and wide aisles between seating rows. Acoustics are good so performers need to turn down the volume in this small space for the enjoyment of the audience

This is a very nice, medium-sized venue with comfortable seating and excellent sight lines. Plenty of free parking, modern amenities, and easy access. Sound is pretty good, but a high, unfinished, warehouse-style ceiling makes for some odd acoustics. But overall, a great place to see a play or concert.

Review №83

Attended the Johnny Cash Tribute Tribune show, Cash Unchained, last night at the Reilly Theatre. The instrumentals were very well done. Unfortunately the sound system was too loud, and produced a muddy, garbled, unintelligible mess of the vocals. Since the lyrics are the quintessential component of Cashs music, we missed what could have been a fantastic performance. We left at intermission as Cashs music without the lyrics was not what we went to hear.Weve attended and enjoyed a number of performances at the Reilly. This is the second show for which the sound system was unacceptable. I had to wear earplugs for the Judy Garland performance.High volume from the sound system does not improve, nor is it a substitute for, quality. This is unworthy of the excellent calibre of the productions at the Reilly.

Reilly Arts Center is my second home . I love it so much, I volunteer every chance I can. No matter what kind of music you enjoy,, The Reilly has itMy favorite is The Ocala Symphony Orchestra with conductor Matt Wardell. As an added treat the chorus under Josh Mazur will be performing Godzilla Eats Las Vegas. I am really looking forward to it. Hope to see you thereThe Reilly Arts is right next to the park with the gay pride fest so you can attend both.
