Kodak Hall at Eastman Theatre

A beautiful theatre. I love coming here. Picking up tickets at will call or buying them on-​site is a relatively easy process; very smooth.
You proceed through a small hallway to a foyer to wait to be ‘checked’ in. Upon entrance, there is a small café at the theatre, and ushers are available to check your ticket and point you to your seat. I usually get orchestra seats, and prefer to sit mid-​way to the back. The seats are pretty standard theatre seats: close together and average, comfort-​wise. One thing that *could* be improved is that the seat rows are on the very bottom of the chairs and can be hard to read and easy to miss if you don’t know where to look. I’ve helped people find their rows on more than one occasion! The theatre itself is beautiful and grand yet intimate.
Mezzanine seats are ideal for shows if you can get them! I love this theatre, and I’m sure I’ll be back for more RPO showings.

Had a terrible experience here with the staff. We were treated very rudely and a concert that was advertised as free was actually $ 15.00 per ticket when we arrived. The woman at the ticket booth said «I guess it’s understandable you were confused as our website was a little misleading.» That is NOT misleading! That is straight-​up incorrect information. When that happens a business should own up to it and apologize.

A super venue that is centrally located — a real gem. I’ve been here for many RPO, Eastman School of Music and Jazz Fest Concerts — too many to count. I think we’ve even seen some comedians here — Seinfeld? If you can afford it avoid the balcony since the upper reaches are far from the stage, though acoustically fine, it feels too removed. I always like the Loge level since it feels more intimate given the smaller number of seats. But then again, there really is not a bad seat in this beautiful hall.

What an amazing venue for the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra!
Getting to the theatre is easy because I live downtown and can walk. For those who are Suburbites and afraid of parallel parking or not sure what a No Standing sign is… rest assured that there is plenty of open lots around, a parking garage, and the scary street parking. Plan time for travel, you are in the city so there are people, but the Kodak Hall is on East, Main, and off Chestnut and not right off any exit.
So the hall was beautiful. Laid out a little strange. There are many doors available for entry, but not all open to the box office. The entrance on Main, to the left is where the box office is.
Once you enter the Hall you will be amazed. A beautiful, huge chandelier. Ornamental stylings of some of the greatest composers. Comfortable seating. Huge velvet curtains and a great view from any seat.
So whether RPO or for another event, you definitely need to see this crown jewel of Rochester.

Kodak Hall is a beautiful theater that houses the RPO and the Eastman Concert Series among other performers.
I have been there a few times but, today as part of the Series Arturo Sandoval gave a magnificent concert with his band. Each one of the band members are virtuosos in their own right.
Sandoval mastery goes beyond his trumpet playing. He demonstrared his mastery at the piano, acoustic keyboard, timbales, capella acoustics, and even sang.
It was an afternoon to learn, enjoy and remember forever. He mesmerized the audience.
At the end he was mobbed by the adoring public that was demandong pictures, autographs and his attention.
Bravo Maestro!!!

I purchase a Hero 9.1 printer, and the first week using it, my printer broke. Kodak gave me a used replacement printer. During the first year warranty I had problems with the printhead. Printhead was replaced few times, and the problem keep coming back. Now that the warranty period was over, and I still have the same problem, Eastman Kodak do not want it to keep fixing the existing problem, and they told me that the warranty is over, and if I want it get it fixed, I have to pay for it, or buy a new printer at my own expenses. I don’t think this is right, because the problem I have was the same problem that I been having since day one. Beware if you thinking about on buying any Kodak product, as they do not comply with the warranty protocols, which instate that if the problem you having happens during the warranty period, the manufactory have to still cover the product. Beware for Kodak Eastman products.

Beautiful place to perform. Highly recommend attending a performance by the RPO or Eastman music students.

Gorgeous interior, any event here is an event. Especially a University of Rochester graduation.
