Raleigh Little Theatre is such a gem. It is always a joy to experience live performances in this intimate setting, it really allows you to connect with the story and the actors in a special way. The productions are consistently well done, and it is great to see such talent and creativity in a local space. It is a wonderful place to support the arts and enjoy a memorable night out even for the kids.

Such a great venue! We went to the Wheels on the Bus show this morning. It was perfect for my toddler. Really nice to have an interactive show so she doesn’t have to sit still. She is a little young (15 months) to understand the entire show but she was engaged throughout. Afterwards we walked around the rose garden (which appears to be in full bloom in the middle of November). Due to thorns, it wasn’t quite as conducive to a toddler! But a great space.

I attended the Color Purple Musical this evening during opening weekend. I arrived an hour before showtime to enjoy the Rose Garden after the rain showers. What an added bonus ! Parking in the Permit lot was fairly easy, however it is a One Way, and you must bring your patience when exiting after the show. Try to find nearby street parking to avoid a traffic jam. I was lucky to score an Orchestra seat front row in A6. The best seat in the house! Plenty of leg room, comfortable and the best view of the stage. I've never sat behind the Orchestra booth, so this was a treat ! This was my first visit to Little Raleigh Theatre and I am very impressed. This production was impeccable. Tia James did a phenomenal job directing. The cast was perfectly tailored to each character and I appreciated that. What a talented cast ! The music was beautiful and the set design blew me away !!! The acting was stellar ! This was in my honest opinion, better than the 2024 Warner Brothers film. By far! I am planning to return again soon. We laughed. We cried. We danced. We sang ! Much thanks to the staff who run a tight ship. Very organized and excellent customer service.

I recently discovered that they also offer acting/ vocal / dance classes for adults at any level. I am excited to enroll this fall and I’m happy to hear that they are bringing classes to convenient city park community centers. A dream come true for me to tap back into my talents and childhood interests.
