★★★★★Leo CollasThis has got to be one of the best regional theaters in the country. From costumes to cutting edge tech, everything about Zach is first rate. Everyone there seems happy, and even the performers rave about the place. I’m proud to have been a season ticket holder, a supporter, and a big fan for many years!
★★★★★Laurel StarkThis was our first show at The Zach and it was spectacular!! I'm so incredibly impressed with the quality of talent in the show. Truly Broadway worthy. I love that the theater is small, all seats are good, and my dad raved about the sound system. We had a great time. There was live music in the lobby before the show and fun on-theme cocktails available for purchase. We are looking forward to more shows in the future. If you haven't seen their version of A Christmas Carol, GO!
★★★★★Umeko VanDuzeeI’ve gone to several shows here over the years and it’s always been a great experience. A Christmas Carol is our family tradition since 2014. Love the intimate seating - there’s not a bad seat in the house. Parking is never an issue for us either.
★★★★★Tim PWhat a great venue and a really fantastic production of a Christmas Carol! Amazingly good cast and singing, nice little reasonably priced bar. Did walk there from downtown Austin so it was a bit sketchy along the river better to go one block across by seaport better lit. If you are visiting and something is on I really recommend it.
★★★★★Matthew HughesWe went to the Zach Theater for the first time to see the musical Waitress. Excellent experience. Easy pick up of tickets at will call. Fast service at the bars. The theater space is beautiful and it looks like all seat have clear sight lines. For Waitress, the space was set up for a 360⁰ show. Can't wait for the next play!
