Plaza del Sol Performance Hall

The theater was much larger on the inside than I thought it would be. I got to watch the CSUN orchestra perform, and the acoustics were great. During the first half the lighting seemed a little too bright and it almost washed out the players, but they lowered the level during the second half. The seats were almost too comfortable. I was super tired and had a hard time not falling asleep, but that’s not the venue’s fault, that was my fault. The guys at the ticket booth were really fast and efficient.
I liked how everyone was very formal and proper. It was an orchestra performance, so all of the players were wearing tuxes and black dresses. Even all the ushers and people collecting tickets were dressed very clean. My favorite person there was the double bass player that had an afro. He looked so clean with a fro and a tux. During the intermission, it’s really nice to be able to walk just outside the theater and grab a snack at the Mercantile Exchange. There is no food allowed in the theater by the way, but that’s expected.
This is a great theater. I’m sure it isn’t as jaw-​dropping as the Valley Performing Arts Theater, but there was absolutely nothing wrong with the Plaza del Sol Theater. I am a trumpet player at CSUN and I’m looking forward to playing here next month! I will definitely come here again to hear other ensembles perform.

I’ve been attending concerts at this great venue for years. The name may have changed but the venue is still superb.
There are no bad seats in this state-​of-​the-​art 500-​seat theatre, located on the campus of CSUN.
From concerts to dance recitals to special events, I always look forward to visiting Plaza del Sol.
