Seems like I visited this location years ago, when I was a college student at the old Concordia University campus. Now it seems to host musicals and Broadway Across America productions and events. I'm told by the concessions staff that "Lindsay is the best manager ever!" Overall the staff is good: Easy e-ticket check in, plentiful seating in multiple balconies, but the actual seats seem cramped an...

We had a great experience at Bass. We chose to valet park, which allowed us plenty of time to relax in the lounge areas. Don’t come hungry, though, the food is way overpriced. Some upcharge is always expected at these venues, but it was beyond here. One glass of wine was $35 after a small tip. Live and learn. The venue is well fashioned and clean. The staff was kind and helpful.

Great concert hall. Went to see a Broadway Musical here and this venue is excellent and inviting. Not a bad seat really anywhere in this concert hall. Pre-show, the drink and food offerings are nice with varieties of beers, wines, and specialty cocktails to choose from. Would go back to this venue again if given the chance.

The Broadway lineups are always fantastic, mixing in new must-see shows with timeless classics that never get old....

I have been to a few events here and they have all been great. Parking is always the challenge because so much of the nearby parking is UT permit stuff but you can usually find something not too far away for $20 or less. I have always been able to locate a person with the venue to ask any questions I had about seating etc. They wanted to charge me $3 to get an actual ticket printed as a keepsake w...
