power center for the performing arts

This 1970's landmark is still a good place to see a play or concert. The nice walk to the center through a very pretty part of UofM campus is worth savoring. Plan to allow for time parking and walking.

Fantastic performance. Kaila Medieros is one to watch ... she played the innkeepers wife and stole the show. As adorable as young Cossette was, that was hard to do! Wonderful theater space, as good or better as any on Broadway.

This is always a place to see great theater and dance performances with some big name entertainers as well as productions by university departments.

Lots of different artists and productions. Pretty much, all good seats. Close parking. Easy walk to good restaurants and shopping on UM campus.

This theater give some great performances. They always seem to have something good going on there and the prices are very reasonable.

Great venue for wide variety of performing arts. We raised our daughter in A2, and throughout her childhood she had the opportunity to see Broadway stars in concert, the Royal Shakespeare Company in residence, Baryshnikov in solo dance tour, various bands, you name it. Along with Rackham Auditorium, U of M has the best performance venues in the Midwest, and attracts the widest possible range of international performers, symphonic orchestras, touring productions, the whole panoply of the performing arts.

This venue is a great place to see any concert of performance. I like the wide range of entertainment available year round.

There really isn't a bad seat here. The place is small enough to feel close to the performers but big enough for larger productions.

We were invited to attend a concert of Pink Martini and found the theatre excellent. All of the seats are good and the way it was built gives everyone a clear view of the stage. The sound is great and the seats comfortable. We were very impressed with the theatre, and if you ever get a chance to hear Pink Martini, don't miss it.

The stadium-style high rise seating with no visual obstructions affords a good view of the stage for the entire audience. Great for dance and multi-media shows. Hill Auditorium a block away is better for acoustic music like the symphony or an capella group.

As a long time Ann Arbor resident I've had enough bad seats at the Power Center to make me groan when I see that an upcoming event is being presented there. I'm certainly not complaining about any of the performances brought to the Power Center - they're top-notch. But as someone who can't afford the posh middle seats, or buys last-minute student discount tickets, I've often been relegated to the far sides where you can literally only see half the stage. The sound system seems pretty sub-par for the quality of performances that cross the stage too: tinny and bright. Ann Arbor has a wealth of performance opportunities, I really wish there was a better place to see them.

Truly...not a bad seat in the house for any performance.my only complaint are the number of bathrooms and the need to them to be updated.

This relatively new venue for the performing arts is able to host dance groups, orchestras, plays, operas and musical comedies. Seating is quite comfortable especially on the main floor, and acoustics are great throughout. Parking is next door.Culture in a city the size of Ann Arbor is amazing, usually at one third to half the price of Washington DC or New York.

The setting is intimate and the acoustics are very good. Having an attached parking structure is wonderful in inclement weather!

smaller size auditorium with good acoustics. Part of the Ann Arbor Top of the Park (the part that is Not free).
