I have been to The Arena Stage 4 times already this season & have enjoyed every single experience. The venue is amazingly beautiful. The plays are top-notch, priced well. If you have a chance to catch a show here, do it! More

Arena Stage may not be on the radar screen of the average tourist visitor to DC, but that's a shame. My husband and I have been subscribers for 35 years, and we can't say enough about the place - especially since it's renovations. It is a most impressive building on the waterfront, truly an architectural work of art. Yes, occasionally... More

From its experimental and daring beginnings, Arena has grown into a major, established and beloved DC institution. Generally high quality presentations of good to magnificent drama. The new theaters are excellent: lighting, acoustics, seating...you couldn't ask for better. The restaurant has a cold & clattery feel and the food is better than highway rest stop but considerably short of gourmet.... More

I used to have season tickets to Arena's productions, all of which were well done and originally produced, employing mostly local talent, but my work pressures caused me to drop the tickets. I keep hearing good things about Arena. More

We've been subscribers at the new Arena Stage in SW Washington DC for several years. The facilities are fantastic. 3 separate theaters under a single roof. Lots of willing staff. Great performances (not always the most uplifting pieces, but always well played and great sets). The one major disappointment is the restaurant. Go elsewhere - seriously! Limited selection, over salted,... More

What an amazing theatre. You will be wowed as much by the building as you will by the actors on the stage! More

Arena Stage started with in the 1960s with an innovative theater-in-the-round. Years later they added a stadium-seating theater in a new building on the same property. In 2011, they enclosed both theaters with a marvelous glass building with graceful curves evoking the Potomac River across Maine Avenue. The complex now includes a third stage, a bar, and a restaurant. Last... More

We went to see The Elephant Room ( A magic/concert/comedy show). t was very entertaining, and the building's architecture was a show on its own. The staff was friendly and helpful. The Catwalk Cafe, leaves up to its name, complete with fabulous costumes from shows past. The food was not bad either. The reasons why I don't give it an... More

We've seen two different productions at Arena over the past eleven months: "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (March, 2011) and "Elephant Room" (February, 2012). Diverse shows, but both were masterfully performed and thoroughly enteraining from start to finish. We love the intimacy of the Kreeger and Kogod Cradle spaces--of course, having second row center aisle seats helps with that. If... More
