| About: | This National historic landmark was built in 1929 as a Shriners temple, but through most of its storied history it has served as Atlanta's premier theatrical venue. A marvel of Middle Eastern Revival architecture that spans a full city block, it is one of the largest theaters built in America during the golden age of the movies. Today, the theater maintains a steady schedule of Broadway shows, operas, symphonic performances and rock concerts. Tours are available, but the best way to experience the Fox is through a night on the town. |

Saturday night, May 31, 2008, Sweeney Todd at The Fox was the worst theater experience I have ever had. Not only was the staging too small for this venue, not one intelligible word was heard in the mezzanine. We saw people moving about onstage, and heard singing, but could not figure out Word One of what they were saying or doing. The mass exodus at intermission speaks volumes. The lady I was next to on my run for the exit came from Row 5 and said she thought she could hear what they were saying, but really didnât care after 20 minutes or so. I really think The Fox should refund my $110 for 2 tickets, because of their logistic errors. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!
While venue is fantastic, its management isn't. I have been in two event's lately (both spectacular performers Aretha Franklin and Alvin Ailey Dance Company), sadly both performances started late.
Even worst for seated live performance event and top theater venue in Atlanta, latecomers were allowed in AFTER show starts and throughout whole performance. Needles to say, I MISSED very beginning of 2 dancing acts in Alvin Ailey because of late comers that were allowed in and disturbed my view to the stage. During Aretha Franklin's concert it was even worst (it was also seated event, 85$ per ticket). I didn't have even 10 minutes clear view of stage due to late arrivals throughout whole concert.
I have contacted management and they are not planning to do anything about, mostly they were giving me excuses. Make an informed decision for the shows you want to see, and what kind of policy they have for late arrivals.
If you don't mind people all the time lifting you and people in front of you up, this is the place for you. I have been at prime venues all around the world and have never seen that in live theater you would let people in. It is disrespectful to patrons of art that came on time, pay premium tickets and performers as well.
Absolutely great place!: Attended a soiree sponsored by Courvoisier at the end of September and the entire facility was great! Spacious. Expect this place to be used for reception!
