Five stars! I went to the Providence Performing Arts Center to see Thorn and it was an unforgettable night. The theater is absolutely stunning — from the architecture to the lighting and sound. Staff was friendly and everything felt smooth and well-organized. Can’t wait to come back for another show!

A truly beautiful venue, and it's so well run. They moved a full house of 3000 people through that space with ease! Entry, concessions, merchandise, restrooms, and exiting. I was truly impressed.

Amazing theater! Staff was polite, seating was great and the show was out of this world. Saw Riverdance in April 2025 and would recommend anyone that has a chance to see the show, not to pass up the opportunity.
Parking and traffic is horrible. The garage across the street is over $50 for a couple of hours of show time. It was pouring out so we took this option but there is no sign of the cost until you park and go to the kiosk to pay. By that time your going to pay it but it was a shock.
