I booked tickets for a BFF bday getaway in Gilbert Arizona. I choose this after reading reviews here and looking at their website. I admit we had a slight concern when we saw the sea of grey hair in the audience, but it was a 5 star performance. I almost didn't buy tickets ahead assuming there would be seats in a community theater, but I'm glad I did get them ahead as it was a full house. I Would do will call if I go to Gilbert again. I actually forgot my tickets ( I live in Canada) There was no problem looking it up. I haven't been to a round theater before and it's a must try. While the seats were a very slightly old style squished, ( & air freshener In the bathroom would be a good idea) it did appear that every seat had a good view. It was neat to see how the director placed everyone so no one feels like they missed out on any action. I didn't take a star off for being squishy as it was a great night and it was a nice temperature. The price point is fine. All the staff were friendly and appeared happy. The drinks & snacks were reasonable priced which I truly appreciate. I loathe price gouging at theaters. There was free water as well. No problems with parking and there are several restaurants around. The cast for John Loves Mary surprised me with their talent and pulled me right in. They stayed outside to thank people and came together for our picture- that I will share if my friend ever emails it to me. ( hint hint ????????) There was wheelchair seating available. I was I, pressed with all of the actors, director and behind the scene staff. I will send a short out to the actors and recommend any future shows they may participate in. From the program they were Kim Stephenson Smith, Matthew r. Harris, David Michael Paul, Laura Soldan, Justin Howell, Juli Gore, Joey Morrison, Tom Endicott & Bobby Jean Owensby. Bravo!

St. Anne's Roman Catholic Church

Reviewed By ucetay

One of the few, conservative churches left in AZ! I love the priest here, they know what true reverence and serving in example of holiness means! The Latin mass is beautiful and the way I wish it would be everywhere! If you are looking for the REAL thing, St. Anne is the parish to be celebrating the REAL Presences!

Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch

Reviewed By dianneg45 - Las Vegas, United States

We spent 2 hours walking the paths around the 7 small lakes in the Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch. We saw a very wide variety of bird life including many snowy egrets and all kinds of ducks. We also enjoyed two large logs where about 10 turtles were sunning on each log. Every few minutes the logs would start rolling and the turtles would either scramble to stay on the logs or fall off and scramble to get back on. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and plan to return. The parking at the library nearby is very easy.
