Eisenhower Auditorium

My most recent visit to the Eisenhower was my first visit, and it was a pleasant experience.
I went to the Eisenhower to see the touring production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. The show was great, but that’s besides the point.
All the staff at the theatre was very polite and more than willing to assist me, along with the rest of my group, to our seats. I felt the restrooms could have been more centrally located. Walking down all the steps to the basement level to get to the restroom was a bit of a nuisance. My other complaint was how the seats are set up inside the theatre. There are no center aisles. So, if you have a seat in the center, you have to walk in front of a whole bunch of chairs… Or you have to say «excuse me» 10,000 times as you walk in front of people.
Overall, I’d return to the Eisenhower, but I’ll probably try to get a seat near the end of the row.

I’ve been to the Eisenhower Auditorium a few times, most recently for the Distinguished Speaker Series featuring Tim Gunn. I’ve also seen the Alton Brown presentation (and met him!) and David Coperfield. During each of these events I sat on the lower level somewhere between the front and the middle. The sound at the venue could be better as it gives the illusion that the performer is father away from you than where they are standing. It sounds kind of weird, but that’s what it felt like to me.
Overall, it’s an average venue that is close to us, so I really can’t complain.
