    Spectacular old theatre. Check out the sculpted ceiling and the opera boxes on the sides. Amazing workmanship long gone from newer theatres. Well organized with plenty of help showing you to your seat

    Great show! I loved the music and the moving sets. But be sure to bring a sweater if you go the theater gets chilly, I am talking training in a meat locker realness 💪😉

    The show was great! I wasn't expecting it to be much, but they did a great job. Get the Gold Circle seats and you get to go on stage for the final Rocky/Apollo Creed fight!

    I have seen Rocky - The Musical in Winter Garden. The set up was very nice. Not much possibility to enjoy the break as the bars are crowded and there are no tables to enjoy the break.

    OMG - The second Act is amazing! After a sleeper of an opener and a languishing story-line leadup to the intermission, I was amazed by the fight scene! They turn the entire theater into a boxing ring!

    Rocky was one of the best musical's I have seen!! If you sit in the 1st 20 rows of the orchestra section you get to go on stage to see the fight with Apollo Creed- well worth it:-)!

    If you sit in the center orchestra section, you will be brought up on stage to watch the title fight with Apollo Creed. Center orchestra will then be replaced by a large, rotating boxing ring. Enjoy!

    Nice theatre.. Good legroom while seated compared to many Broadway show houses. School of Rock is a fun and energetic show... Highly recommended.

    The show "Cats" ran here for 18 years, followed by "Mamma Mia!" which has been running for 11 yrs. We'd personally love to see the two shows combined into one. "Cat Mammas!" Just us?

    Did you know? Angela Lansbury opened the show Mame on the stage of the Winter Garden in the 1960’s and credits that production with her first real introduction to stardom.

    This is a very nice, small theatre. There doesn't appear to be a bad seat in the house.

    Before it was converted to a theater in 1911, the Winter Garden Theatre served as a horse exchange. Photo credit: Northfoto / Shutterstock.com

    If you sit in the first few rows you will feel as if you are part of the performance.

    The security folks all seem to have anger & patience issues, so expect to be yelled at if you're in the wrong line or don't fill the gaps in a line quickly enough or if hold your umbrella funny...

    Great shows (we just saw "School of Rock") but the space is kind of shabby and cramped.
