fox cities performing arts center

Easy in and easy out. Ample parking aright across the street. Top notch entertainment. We will do this again.

Went to the Colin and Brad 2 man show last night. We did upper level seats and had no problems seeing or hearing the show. Parking is cheap and convenient. If you visit one of the many drinking establishments after the show for one, the parking garage will be empty when you are ready to leave. It is always organized and well staffed for all types of event. Buy your tickets and enjoy top of the line events!

It looks nice on the outside, bit inside it looks old and poorly constructed (cheap looking). I can't speak for the 'better' seating area, but the seats were way too small and crowded together. I'm not a larger person, but the people I was with are-they were very uncomfortable crammed in the seats. The seat rows are very long with the only way out being either end of the row making it difficult to get up to get a drink or use the restroom, everyone has to stand up to let you squeeze past.The staff/ volunteers were very friendly and helpful.

You might think Appleton is a small city with small time entertainment. Not so. The PAC bring the best of what Broadway has to offer. The theater is beautiful!! The shows are top notch! There are no bad seats. The volunteers are very friendly and helpful with any questions you might have. Within a 100 mile radius this definitely is the place to go for concerts or theater. Parking gets a little congested (not horrible) so give yourself extra time. You will not leave the PAC disappointed!

We always go to shows at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center. We have seen Wicked, Annie, Le Mis, and so many more. From the moment you walk in the door you are treated like royalty. Volunteers greet you, and help you with any questions. Food is a little pricey so eat pefor hand.

The Fox Cities PAC is a wonder venu for all arts, every show is just wonderful. The theater is absoutely beautiful! From the moment you walk in the door, the experience is over the top. Volunteers open the doors and greet you, wishing you a wonderful evening and 'enjoy the show'. The concessions are convient, the lobby very nice and the theater very comfortable.We have been season ticket holders since the place opened for both the arts alive season and the broadway season, and LOVE the entire experience.

I always have good time seeing the shows at The Appleton PAC. The seats are all good, I don't thing there is a bad one in the house. I love that they sell "sippy cups" for your beverage, so you don't have to slam your drink when the show begins! I also like the valet parking, it takes the worry out of trying to find a spot in downtown Appleton...which is notorious for No Parking Areas!

There is not a bad seat in this place. I have been to many performances here and have had a great time! Wonderful statf, great food and drinks.

We have had season tickets to the PAC for years so we visit about 10 times a year. I've also been going to the Weidner Center in Green Bay for 20 yrs so I feel I have a solid experiential comparison. What I love about the PAC is the variety of shows. They do a great job of bringing in a lot of different entertainment. I truly appreciate that. I do have a few things that would not rate a 10 in my book. The sound system for the musicals can best be described as having a "tinny" output. It's not the beautiful sound you would expect to hear at a theater of this quality. I am regularly disappointed with the seating. The designer/architect put too shallow of a slope on the main stage floor. That means you are bobbing left and right throughout the show to see around people's heads. It can be very frustrating, especially for kids. Get the booster seat for sure. We do not have that same problem at the Weidner Center.The other concern is the length of the rows in the upper tiers. There are no middle aisles. If you are in the center of the row, do not plan on getting out during intermission to hit the restroom or catch a drink. You will not have enough time. Think about getting closer to the aisle, but be prepared to get up and down a lot while a dozen people have to get past you to be seated.All this being said, it's still a great place to see a good show,

It is a small theatre, but don't equate small with poor quality. All the seats in this venue have a great view of the stage, and I could hear the performers clearly. The PAC also has a lot of great Broadway shows that stop here on tour. I saw Phantom of the Opera, and I have seen this show at other venues. The PAC definitely matched my experience in Milwaukee.

I remember well the days before the PAC was built, so appreciate that we now have such a fine facility for Broadway-caliber shows and entertainment. The seats are comfortable, but I usually spend time shifting my head from right to left to see over heads, especially if I am in the orchestra (main floor) seating area. I wish they had put more of a slope to the seating or a little more spacing between seats. The interior is still in like-new condition and is spotlessly maintained.

I have seen multiple shows here. Most seats are good but avoid the sides if possible. My favorite spot is second row in the middle of the dress circle. Shorter people may not like the main floor as the rise is not steep enough to see over the person in front of you. My only disappointment was leaving at intermission when the concert band was way too loud and I was afraid of damaging my ears. I learned after the fact that ear plugs would have. Even available.

I have seen several shows at the PAC and I have yet to get a bad seat. Parking is convenient right across the street and they have valet parking. Lots of restaurants and bars near by to make it a complete night both before and after.

Recently moved to Appleton from Arizona. Bought tickets to Book of Mormon and attended the production. Seats were comfortable but a bit tight (not much personal space).

The Fox Cities PAC is an excellent venue for a multitude of Broadway and community shows and concerts. We are season subscribers to the Fox Valley Symphony as well as the Broadway series of shows. We appreciate having the PAC in our community to bring the fine arts to Appleton. The facility is lovely and all the seats are very good. We highly recommend the PAC!
