Thomas Jefferson Community Center Theater

My family and I came here to see a production of the nutcracker that ballet nova did. So it was packed when we came. They had decent parking, I believe this is near a middle school? The lobby is not that big so a person can get claustrophobic.

A friend of a friend snagged a part in the chorus of «Thoroughly Modern Millie.» I so love that musical, a bunch of us girlie girls went to check it out.
The theater is actually part of TJ Middle School. It seats about 700 or so people. One of the ushers told me the makeup of the theater is called «proscenium» which means that it has a half shell arch at the front of the stage. In TJ’s case, the arch is actually on the celing.
The stage itself is raised above where we, the audience sat. We literally had front and center seats (second row). The orchestra pit was right in the middle of the stage. If you go to a show here, park near the Community Center which is to the left of the basketball court and all the way behind the school.
The performance was great for an amateur filled show.
