What parents say
"Excellent location for an orchestra concert. The acoustics of this theater was vibrant, any seat would be enjoyable. The details of the walls, ceilings, and entire interior alone is enough to make an event enjoyable. The staff is friendly, including the box office and bars. They sell beer, mixed and soft drinks and light snacks. I feel truly lucky to have visited this place. Seating was comfortable and arranged well for viewing. The ushers were very kind and helpful. The Fox is an experience everyone in STL should experience. Plenty of parking options. The traffic to the site could be congest"

"The venue is top notch. I wasn't here for the horrible show as I was just the designated driver. I honestly wore earbuds for the entire show. I can definitely be persuaded to come to other shows in the future. The food looks amazing, but I'm dieting and can't have anything pretty much."

"Great experience for the show we saw. The seats were comfortable and not too close so I felt like I had personal space. The angle for the side was still a good view. There were aisles for the cast to come out into the crowd and that was great to see. The house lights were well lit while not being harsh and the atmosphere was awesome. The ladies bathroom was clean, spacious and well lit. The window decor with the main characters outside was a nice touch and a book photo opportunity. This was a great experience for us. We saw Sailor Moon: The Super Live"
