Haugh Performing Arts Center

Top notch, professional grade theater with a variety of excellent shows every season. And helpful staff, to boot.

The HPAC is one of the best performing arts facilities at any community college. They have shows that appeal to all ages including their Saturday series for kids.
One downside that I’ve found is that the only available bathrooms are outside which are mediocre at best since the students use them as well.
The best part about this theater is their staff, including the ushers that will guide you down the steps. Since food and drinks are not allowed inside the theater, it is usually much cleaner than other theaters I’ve been to.

So many years ago I attended Citrus as a music major. We had an old, small but acoustically great auditorium. It was hot in summer and rarely comfortably warm in winter. I remember the chair of the music department showing some of us plans for the new auditorium that would be built on the west side of the campus.
I am not sure how many decades now the Haugh PAC has been open but it has been everything Dr. Magliocco said it would be – and more!
I have performed on the stage with orchestras and directed high school bands and jazz bands. It is a great venue for performers.
For members of the audience it is one of the finest in SoCal, bar none. Sight lines from any seat are excellent. The seats are comfortable and there is ample leg room for even the tallest NBA player. The ample legroom makes it easy to enter or exit your seating row. The sound is as well done as any venue you can name. I have attended and/​or performed in most of the «Big Name» theaters in the greater Los Angeles county and given a choice I would have all the events I attend be at the Haugh PAC. A bonus is the cost of parking, free!
Do not be afraid to attend a performance of any kind because it is at a community college, this is a top professional level venue.

I love this venue! The plays run just long enough that the children can handle them and the stories they feature are always interesting. I have been here with my daughter and other family members at least half a dozen times. You can’t beat the price and the package deals they offer are a bargain too for the entire season. Great way to introduce the little ones to the world of performance arts!

I attended the Sound of Music — Sing-​a-​Long at the Haugh Performing Arts Center in Glendora, CA on 4÷19÷2014. I’ve been to the Center several times before. For this event the cost was $ 16.00 and the parking was free. It is a nice venue with comfortable seats and a good sound system. On this day they played the 1965 Movie of the Year — The Sound of Music — and turned it into a Sing-​a-​Long. It was fun. Especially getting to hiss the Baroness and the Nazis.

Saw the Glenn Miller Orchestra here a few weeks ago – great show and a great value at this venue! There is a whole season of wonderful shows happening here. Nice to have a local venue and skip the drive into one of the big cities. And free parking! Definitely coming back!

Music! Light! Dance!
A phenomenal Españoll experience in an inviting performing art theater at Citrus College.
Paco Peña: Flamenco Vivo!
Mr. Peña is a well known flamenco guitarist, a respectful composer and recording artist. His music is brilliant and wonderful. He has played in Royal Hall in London, New York’s Carnegie Hall and the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam besides in his native country Spain. He is also the world’s first Professor of Flamenco Guitar at Rotterdam Conservatory in the Netherlands.
Mr. Peña leads his hand-​picked guitarists, singers, flamenco dancers and a drummer of total 9 for this performance.
The arrangement for the show was entirely on southern Spain flamenco music and dancing in simply yet rich theatrical lighting. Very powerful — there were times I got goose bumps just by listening the passionate sound of guitar and watching the marvelouse flamenco dancers dancing.
Ticket price $ 26.00 free parking! Vivo!

The Saturday series for kids is a great family outing and it is only 6 dollars. The theater is nice and elegant when the «grown up» shows are being featured. I’m glad to live close by.

Very very inexpensive for the kids Saturday Series for Kids. The cost is per person $ 6 or $ 5 per person for Group of 10+. Everyone must have a ticket to enter including infants. Parking is FREE.
I took my 2 year old to his first play here for The Little Train that Could. I was so nervous thinking is he going to last or are people going to look at us while he is being loud (a toddler).
This was a great experience and I can’t wait for the 2010 – 2011 season to begin in November.
If your kid acts up or is loud he/​she is not the only one and everybody there understands. The theater is gorgeous too.

The Haugh Performing Arts Center located on the campus of Citrus College is a great theatre that showcases many kinds of live acts. The theatre which is pronounced «ha» as in hahaha! just finished a weekend showing of Chicago. There are great shows to match every kind of personality. The parking is free, the box office is open before most shows, and the theatre is very nice. It’s definitely worth it to see a show here!
