Beautiful historic property in the heart of the Mission District. Do not miss it on your visit as the architectural details are so evocative of the grand era of San Francisco. And definitely take a look at the Albers Flapjack Flour mural on the side --- sadly fewer and fewer historic painted beauties like this exist in the modern city. Then look up towards the roof of the neighboring building for a ghost advertisement in white paint!

This was our second year seeing the Golden Girls Live at the Victoria! Such a blast! I cant say enough about this show - so much fun from the sing-a-long to the show to the meet and greet at the end. The theater itself could use some updating - tiny bathrooms (with really long lines) and cramped seats - but it adds to the personality. Such a fun night!

I stumbled across this place a year ago. I was in town and saw they had Hedwig & the Angry Inch, a personal favourite, so I went blindly. I didnt realize it was a smaller, Indy, semi-professional troop, but let me tell you it was absolute perfection. Hedwig with that cast, venue and crowd was a perfect mix. This year (2019) I was back for a quick trip and saw they had the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I know the music but not familiar enough to call myself a fan. AGAIN! A perfect marriage: the script, actors, venue and crowd making for an unforgettable experience. I will be back!!!

I love the Victoria. Over the past twenty years, Ive had so many great experiences there. Its really an important part of my community. I do, however, think that maybe we can chip in and get them some better lights. Maybe Im getting blind in my elder years, but Im pretty sure a powerful spot light would liven up any show.

I went to see an incredible musical called Caroline or change. The singers voices were absolutely incredible. I did not expect this high level of production and performance at such a small theater but I am glad that I was happily surprised. This is my first performance that I attended but I will definitely attend more in the future. They also offer popcorn and apparently have a bar so you can have drinks before the performance afterward and during intermission. Five stars

The seats are a little cramped (Im a plus sized woman but I was still able to fit in between the armrests) and was very warm inside with all the other people. Staff was extremely friendly. Womans bathroom only had 2 stalls. While the theatre was alright, the production was fantastic.

I have seen several Ray of Light productions here and they have all been fantastic. This is an old theater, but plenty of room in seats and Im 64. The bathrooms are always an experience but, they are trying some new policies which may help.

Great, awesome shows. Ive if my favorite things to do in the bay area. The actors are amazing, the production value-very high. I buy the season pass which comes with a free drink every show. Love it

Expect a classic theater experience and you have a chance of leaving happy. Arrive early. Crowd control is tedious in vintage space upon entry. Bring cash for booze. Once in the theater all is great.

Golden Girls-Drag show! Best show I’ve ever been to hands down!

Ray of Light Theater did a fabulous performance of American Psycho. The subject is most definitely not my cup of tea, so I was way surprised to the upside. The gore was artfully understated, the focus was on the NYC of the early 80s as experienced by the Wall Street privileged. Great musical, talented local artists.

Such a fun place to visit for a rowdy show. The theater itself was kind of cramped but if i could describe any theatre as having character, it would be this one!

Its a nice, old-timey venue with a great staff. My only complaint is something in there sets off my allergies almost every time, but I still love it.

Gorgeous space. Has a lot of character and has amazing shows!

I went to see BAMSF “Hairspray” and it was amazing, the seats were comfortable and everyone there was so kind. I just wanted to say that BAMSF puts on a great show and everyone should go see “Gypsy”!

Full of CRIME and old Punk Rockers. Went to punk shows and wot not for about three decades now, born & raised in the mission like my father before me.

Overall great atmosphere. Its friendly and very interesting. Its in the mission, ideal for travel by either the 33, 55, 14, 49 or 22 lines. Have great shows and times are ideal if you work and dont want to rush back out.

I was here for the Spliff film festival. Its a small theater with just the basics but the staff was friendly, the location was near a lot of good food, and everybody had a good time. Not sure if this was just our show or because we sat in the front but the sound was cranked up crazy loud. Might want to move back a few rows.

Cool theater, went to see golden girls, great show! Stairs to balcony are way too steep though :-(

The Victoria Theatre is old. And unfortunately, it shows. Like most older venues, it has plenty of charm. And it is clean. But it definitely needs a little TLC (and maybe some new seats). Everyone who works there is extremely nice though.

Golden Girls production was marvelous! Seats in old theater very small.

Went here to see the Golden girls live. Fun night

It’s a cozy theatre which seems to retain its original charms.

The staff are wonderful. Play itself was engaging and enjoyable to experience. The theatre itself is a slice of San Francisco history!

Forward serve alcohol but you can bring your own if youre sneaky

Saw Golden Girls and it was just great and funny!

So much Fun..Golden Girls Live

The Seats are to Small for tall people that was my only issue.

I like the facility its cozy, friendly, no bad seat in the house for viewing. I recommend checking it out they do good live theater. The more support the better the production.

Nice cozy theater. Its in a seedier part of the Mission and thats my biggest issue. Parking is about a block away at the Hoff St. Garage, with very limited street parking.

Very AWESOME place!! I am so glad I checked it out!! I will be coming back and I may check out a season membership

Saw the Rocky Horror Show here, had a great time in an atmospheric theatre.

Nice small theater for movies and live performances. Oldest theater in San Francisco built in 1908. Could use a renovation to bring it back to its original glory. Convenient to public transportation. #livemusic #culture

Great theater in the mission - was able to see everything as the seating was close to the front- not bad view and seating for a $25 ticket!

Pretty nice small venue. I saw the all-female cast production of Jesus Christ Superstar and had a great time. They sold us beers/wines at the entrances and were very friendly. I had a great time.

Amazingly beautiful and classic theater. Be sure to check out a show here if you have the opportunity!

Saw Ray of Lights Hedwig and the Angry Inch. Great performance, but its the second time now that I have a hard time hearing the performers over the music. Still a lovely show and Ill still be back for more for great programming

Great place small inside. Not a lot of bathrooms but its great. Be aware of leg room and asking people to get up to use the bathroom.

I liked the entrance and esthetic of the interior of the theater, my only complaint though is the size of the seats. I felt them a little small and uncomfortable.

Fabulous show.Golden girls tonight.

Hairspray was awesome. Seats could use some repairs.

Saw Hairspray here. Excellent production!

Charming and cozy venue!

Convenience transportation via BART plenty of restaurants

Working AC would be a plus in an otherwise great theater.

Nice theater - oldest in San Francisco. Not ornate like Castro.

Youd think I would have been here as a San Franciscan. Finally went inside and saw how beautiful this theater is and its historic! Attended last night to see a film part of the San Francisco International Film Festival. High high ceilings, semi-cozy seats, super tight seating! Overall, popcorn was great, film was terrific and hope the seating would be revised.

Great plays, good sound setup and multimedia capability.

Saw the stage production of the TV show, Golden Girls during holiday season. It was hilarious. The Blanche character was the best! During quick scene changes, there was a live organ playing and we sang Christmas carols. Very historic theatre in Mission District. If you have trouble going up and down stairs, opt for a orchestra seat. It was a fun afternoon in beautiful San Francisco!

This is a great older theater. Its really just the right size - not a bad seat in the house! There are several theater troupes that do shows here. Always a great time!

The Victoria Theatre is a lovely, classical venue, serving as a fine old hostess or hostess for both motion pictures and live performances. While the Vic is not as elegant or classy as the capacious and historic Castro Theatre, it serves as an ideal cinema house for films on the repertoire of various film festivals.

Older theater with a lot of style and an intimate feel. I havent seen a live show here, but its a very pleasant place to watch a movie. The seats arent the most comfortable, but that doesnt detract from the experience and I have zero other complaints.

Lovely historic theater. The seats are old but comfortable. Decently stocked concessions. Im here this weekend working Next to Normal and really enjoy the experience.

The Ray of Lights all female production of Jesus Christ Superstar was one of a kind. It was awe inspiring

Awards ceremony for the Bay Area Theatre Critics - sweet theatre lovely fun

Best production of HairSpray ever!

Ceiling needs painting but cute theatreBetter popcorn than amc.

Nice little theater

We saw Hairspray and it was excellent!

Great performance! Theater is old but charming.

Nice place and nice staff. But they need some amendments at the place.

I love supporting this theater but it is drafty inside. Cold weather outside means it will be chilly inside.

Cool place near Bart

Jammed and cramped and needing a major facelift but fun as heck. Saw #goldengirls and loved it

The resident group, Ray of Light, stages fun and funny productions with very talented casts.

Great theater. Just caught some favorite you tubers. Close to Bart. Free parking in the area.

Love this place, and they house some of the hippest theatrical events in town. My main complaint is that everything about it, from the lobby to the seats, feels so cramped. Even so, seeing Rocky Horror or drag recreations of the Golden Girls at this venue is pretty exciting.

Amazing production of JCSS by this all female cast. The staging, choreography and vocals are superb. Ifou get a chance get your tickets now for this limited run!

If you want to see relevant quality shows, come here!

Beautiful theater. Great place to catch a show!

Fun, nonprofit community theater, but a little bit decrepit and uncomfortable. Good overall atmosphere though. Right next to 16th Street BART.

Beautiful old theater put too good use

I love our Victoria theater, great productions with good amount of grunge.

Saw Silence! The Musical. Well staged and acted. Relatively easy to find a parking spot at the structure they recommended.

Cute old theater. Needs more bathrooms.

Nice place even though sits werent too comfortable

Love the balcony seats--always a nice group of folks to see movies with!

A beautiful little theater where I saw the all female cast of Jesus Christ Superstar.

Saw a musical here with friends and really enjoyed it. Great production, cozy little venue. They even sell beer and snacks at the front desk (I had Junior Mints!) Its also right next to 16th st. BART to easily get there or make a quick getaway.

Its rough around these areas because there are a lot of homeless roaming the streets and some were on their bicycles with a stereo boom box but its convenient enough if you dont want be bothered nor bullied. So you better realize where you are ppl and where you stand!

Went here for a magic show. Cool little spot. Id recommend they run some AC or vents. It got pretty warm in there.Depending on the event, it van be harder to see things from the balcony.

Its a small theater thats rough around the edges. Its probably seen better days and it needs some upgrades to make it comfortable. We saw Carrie the Musical here and the sound, lighting, and setting seemed to work well for the space.

Great performance of Hairspray

Small quaint theater.

Wonderfully adapted musical. THE WEDDING SINGER!

An old style movie theater that is mostly used for special occasion. Very inadequate mens room.

An oldie but goodie. Surprisingly good acoustics. Seats could use an upgrade.

The Premier of My House was Red Carpet worthy

Love this theater and the wonderful events they have

Watched Silence! The Musical here. Good show, old theater. Seats are just crammed together.

This is a great little theater. Saw Pushing Daisies here and loved the venue and the staff.

Its ok

Loved the golden girls live!

It was very nice

Cute little theater. We had the worst seats in the house and still had a good time.

I just wish management would update the bathrooms...

I love the theater except it is in a dumpy part of the city and the seats need to be replaced.

Quaint theatre. Its not the nicest theatre in SF but its pretty good.

Always a fun time and great theatre at the Victoria !

Venerable theatre for film and live performances.
