As I said earlier, my enjoyment of this theater has been long standing.and I am looking forward to many, many more performances in this “Grand Old Lady” of this South.The Lucas Theatre has been open in the heart of Savannah, GA since 1921. The staff of the Lucas were so gracious and caring to and for me. So his name did not stick with me.And for that, I am so very sorry I didn’t get all of my “ducks in a row” ! The house lights were down and the intro to the music and introductions of the featured sololists had begun. And, after my “wounds” were taken care of and I was seated, the director of the Lucas(or at least I think he was) came upstairs to check on me.MUCH to my embarrassment, I did not catch his name. They provided first aid.but more importantly to me, the care and concern was SO generous and so real/authentic. Truly an accident, with no one at fault!!!! But, the immediate attention provided me by multiple staff members of the Lucas was outstanding. The architectural trappings, the wonderful acoustics, the grace and beauty of an old building that has survived and actually blossomed into a place which is and should be loved.īUT, aside from the obvious, the wonderful music and performances, and the wonderful setting.this isn’t the foremost, the most important aspect of my review.Īs my friend and I were making our way upstairs to our balcony seats, I slipped on the marble steps and became to center of attention with abrasions, the prolific oozing and bloody kind, from my elbow to wrist on my arm. The point I’m making is that this venue is truly amazing.

many, many was truly great.BUT, we have also enjoyed multiple performances in balcony seats “way beyond” the front row.

My husband and I had fortunately, front row seats in the balcony. In fairness, over the last 30+ years, I/ we have enjoyed “box seats”.raised/elevated along the right and left sides of the theater.and on numerous occasions, the balcony seats. The Lucas is a wonderful theater which has been renovated.I think, to it’s original grandeur.the decor was brought back to its initial design, the seating is quite comfortable and there really doesn’t seem to be a bad seat in the theater. The concert was outstanding and the venue, once again, was absolutely wonderful. I joined a friend for an evening of “dinner and a concert”.a performance featuring brothers who are outstanding musicians of “ stringed” instruments and performing with the Savannah Philharmonic.
