I went to see Beauty and the beast ballet last night with a dancer friend. If you were expecting the same story line as the movie, you would be disappointed. I came into the ballet with an open mind and enjoyed the story line! Very different yet appealing! We went to the Thursday night showing which also meant a different cast. I did feel the main soloist lacked the flexibility of some of the other dancers, however her lines were for days. I was still entranced by the story line and movement of the lead. The very flexible left stage sister did a remarkable performance! Her flexibility and lines were well received. From a former dancer I understand the hard work and dedication this piece took for everyone involved. It was a wonderful performance.

I really like the Marcus. The cheap seats are definitely in the nosebleed section, but the sound system is good. Drinks are available at concessions on each level,at reasonable-ish prices. Parking is a bit of a hassle, so allow yourself a bit of extra time.

A fabulous experience at the Milwaukee Ballet. The seating is good for everyone. Helpful staff to assist you to find it if needed. Snacks and drinks can be purchased and brought into the theater.
And then there is the performance. It is difficult to find the words to express the enjoyment, from the talented dancers, to the costume designers, to the choreographers, to the stage setting. All talented individuals that come together to ensure an evening of awe and enjoyment.

It was a last minute decision to go to the symphony. I used to have season tickets, so I know the seating layout. However, the seating chart can be accessed on Google. The ticket office opens at noon on Saturday and I requested center orchestra. I ended up in row Y, second to the last row, in the center. The ticket was under $30 with fees and the view and sound were amazing! Drew Petersen's, piano, dynamic performance of Rhapsody in Blue was flawless.
I arrived at the parking structure on State Street at 7:30 pm for an 8 pm concert. There's a $10 fee. Got a terrific spot in a corner. There are elevators and a sky walk over to the PAC. There should be a meet and greet after the concert to slow down departures. As traffic from the upper levels zipper in, it seems to take forever to leave the structure onto a busy downtown street. And, there's no one directing traffic. PATIENCE required. Headed east only to find most street under construction.
Tony Desare, piano and voice, performs Ray Charles, Billy Joel, Elton John, and Jerry Lee Lewis in GREAT BALLS of FIRE March 23 - 25. Sounds like a fun evening!
