Reviews
Visited to see “The Christmas Carol” opening night and I loved every second of it! The lightning, the sound, the intimacy of the crowd… this theatre is one of the good ones!
Parking was free for the show (not sure if it’s always like this), around a nice amount of food places in case you want to eat before or after the show, and they even have their own mini bar to get wine or beer during the show (I tried their red wine and it was nice for someone who doesn’t really drink wine!)
The Women’s Jazz Festival: Mary Halvorson Amaryllis Project & Alexis Lombre performed at Metropolis. They were fantastic and the space is terrific. Parking was plentiful. Had a wonderful time.

A great theatre that puts on amazing shows. Most of the shows we see are great and the staff are always fantastic.
I just wish their seats were a smidge wider. I am a bit of a bigger sized theatre patreon the seats are just not super comfy for people of a certain body size.
We usually have like everything here for years but Addams was worse than irritating. Would have left in beginning but didn't want to disturb others by going all way down to front & back to get around the full length fence.
Addams was awful. Music so loud couldn't hear words instead of quiet background. Voices screechy & quavering used more yelling than any emotion of the moment.
Not funny at all, and repetitious.
Many left at intermission, or sat in car to wait for rest of party.
Have never left a play downtown or suburbs no matter how bad to see what the point might be, but we also left this one, it's not redeemable. You need to tap into high schools for some fabulous talent, as well as Loyola's actors. Never bad no matter the type or difficulty of theme.
Strangely, others said was bad don't go. We figured how bad could a comedy be...
Very nice intimate venue for live performances! Was so cool to see Ayodele!
Had a great time at Xanadu. So much fun. It was my first time at this theatre. Small, cozy, and all the seats are good.
Xanadu, what a fun show! Our first visit to this venue. Parking was easy and free, plenty of restaurants, with indoor/outdoor seating and places just to get a drink. Steps from Metra also.
My husband and I recently watched the christmas carol play here and loved it. Wonderful actors and actresses and overall nice clean theater and atmosphere. Would recommend!
