We decided at the last minute to see the show Southern Nights. It was a very well done and the theatre was intimate. More

Friends had recommended this theatre to us when they heard we were visiting Savannah. We’re so glad they did. We saw the show, "The Beat Goes On", which is a musical revue of hit songs from the 60's, 70's and 80's. Not only is the playlist excellent, but the presentation was great and the 8 or so performers were wonderful.... More

We saw "The Beat Goes On." WOW. The costumes, the dancing, the music and singing is top notch. This cast is incredibly talented and professional. It's obvious that they love what they do and their goal is to make the audience smile. We'll be back! More

My family and I attended both The Beat Goes On and Southern Nights. Over the years we have been to over 200 plays and musicals. We have seen it all. These 2 productions were among the absolute best we have ever seen. For pure entertainment value it was probably the best. The singing and dancing were great, the ladies beautiful,... More

Begin with an irresistibly funny janitor named Maynard, who opens the evening by involving the audience in his plight to be "part of the show", add an incredibly talented cast of young folks who sing and dance their way into your hearts and have you singing and clapping right along with them, accompanied by a group of extraordinary musicians who...

Went to show Southern Nights on May 18th with husband and three other couples. Everyone of us enjoyed this show very much! There was so much talent on that stage - it was awesome! I loved the entire show, but I think my favorite part was the 'trash band' segment. The drummer was something else during this. And the piano... More

Southern Nights was one of the best musicals I've ever seen. Awesome talent, especially the piano and sax players. The singers and dancers were all "top notch" and the comedian, "Maynard," was quite a hoot.This show was the highlight of our trip. More

You must absolutely see this show if you visit Savannah. It is simply awesome! So much talent -it is amazing. Beware of some audience participation that will have you in complete stitches. Make sure to sit on the aisle and have your camera ready! They don't want you to film the entire show but they will let you snap some... More
