Patricia Corbett Theater

This is such a gem that nobody talks about. CCM puts on such an amazing performance.
I saw Don Pasquale performed by CCM grad students and they did such a good job. Shout out to the lead, Don Pasquale, as well as Norina and The Doctor. They were hilarious. The entire crowd was laughing, it felt more like a comedy show than the opera.
Mark Gibson, the conductor was also superb. He’s a show in himself, just watch him, it’s great. He really gets the best from the orchestra which was also very good. I can’t really say enough good things, best money I’ve spent in a long time.
I’d recommend sitting in the back if you don’t speak the language. They always have subtitles, but if you sit in the front you’ll have a kink in your neck from looking up at the screen.
Can’t wait to go back, too bad the shows are almost over for the season.

Friday night (1÷20÷12) was my first time at the Patricia Corbett Theater, I won tickets to a Moveable Feast from Unilocal.I was very impressed with the theater the seats had enough leg room for me and I am 6ft 3 inches tall, usually in older theaters the seats are packed with very little leg room.
The acoustics were also wonderful and what an atmosphere.
I will def return to the CCM for performances.

Now, I may be a bit bias, but the University of Cincinnati College-​Conservatory of Music offers numerous shows and performances through out the year. With two large performing spaces for concerts, plays, and productions of both musical theater and opera, there is always something going on.
Productions in PCT are much more intimate due to the proximity of the performers and steepness of the stadium seating. Personally I enjoy performances here more than in its bigger companion Corbett Theater. (I know confusing right?)
No matter what is being put on, I guarantee it will be enjoyable.

The Patricia Corbett Auditorium stands out like a sore thumb against the College Conservatory of Music’s cement landscape. The green angled roof suggests a beautiful auditorium on the inside, and it is.
Built in 1971 this 380 seat auditorium offers a more versatile space than the Corbett Theatre to CCM students and local performing groups. The stage is a thrust stage which means it juts out into the audience a bit. The seating is around the stage in a semi-​circle. On each side of the wall are very interesting architectural designs on the walls made up of squares and other shapes. The theater also contains a large Casavant Tracker organ.
I saw a wonderful production here of The Wild Party that was presented by the musical theater majors at CCM. The show was tight, wild, and entertaining!
