LutherVanDross Review

Attucks Theatre - Norfolk

This show was outstanding! I thought for sure that the person who walked on stage was Luther Van Dross. When he began singing, OMG! His voice did not disappoint. I would encourage everyone to see this show. It was more than worth it! Simply Outstanding!

Harrison opera house is unsafe in the upper levels

Harrison Opera House - Norfolk

Harrison opera house is unsafe in the upper levels. The is no room if you're sitting in the middle of the row. it's dangerous for the elderly or someone that may have balance issues. It's very steep which is fine so you can see the stage, but the rows are too close and there is no room to pass by people. Time to renovate for safety purposes

The Sound of Music

Harrison Opera House - Norfolk

I grew up watching this movie & can sing the soundtrack in my sleep. I was so excited to see that the show would be in my neck of the woods the week after Mother’s Day so I gifted mine with tickets to see the show. We had a BALL!! It was so nostalgic because she taught me many of those songs. **The Diverse Cast stood out to me the most & I was able to appreciate the show even more than what I was expecting. Thank You for bringing diversity to this show. I look forward to seeing it even MORE in the future

I have enjoyed the Sound of Mysic film and score since I was a child. Live with an orchestra exceeded all my expectations!

Enjoyable evening at the Opera House

Attended the first night of the Sound of Music at the Harrison Opera House in Norfolk, Virginia on May 13, 2022. The venue is old and could use some painting evident by some peeling paint on the ceiling. The acoustics were reasonable but an opening in the ceiling right above the stage probably does not do good since the orchestra pit is right in front of the stage. The Virginia Symphony Orchestra did a superb job and so did the cast. Mikaela Bennett (Maria) has a beautiful voice. The production followed roughly the movie story. The cast is just incredible. Gretl (Stormie Trevino) was just very funny and even as a six year old captured the heart of the audience. Captain Von Trapp (Edward Watts) performance was solid and convincing. While I am partial and biased to the Chesapeake Soprano singer Aundi Marie Moore who played Mother Abbess, her voice was indeed powerful and beautiful. While this venue is labeled an Opera House there were things that would be detrimental for an opera. The seats are not comfortable and the seats in front of you were too close. I sat at the Right Mezzanine front and after three hours my legs were killing me. My biggest complaint if I am watching a real Opera is that unless you are seated at the Mezzanine, you will not be able to see the orchestra. The orchestra pit is also too small for a full production orchestra. All in all, I enjoyed the performance.
