Great for shows, well-thought out logistics
The Benedum Center is a nicely maintained events venue with great decor. Good shows and logistics taken into consideration better than at neighboring Heinz Hall. For example, it can be easy to get lost, and also the nearest restrooms during intermission get very crowded. However, Benedum had solved this problem by having an attendant direct visitors to bigger (and cleaner) restrooms when lines started to form (something that Heinz Hall could also benefit from). Although we didn't test it out, Benedum also has an app you can use to order your refreshments for intermission, and allegedly it's faster than standing in line. One thing I wish they had was a year-round coat check, because especially in the more affordable seats, storing your outerwear is tricky and it gets crowded and hot. They do have lockers, but we didn't have any coins on us at the time of our visit, which are required to operate the lockers. Overall we had a good time here and members of our group enjoyed the show. Everything was rolling smoothly and it was a nice experience.

We just love the Benedum Center. Not only does the CLO put on amazing performances, but the building is a museum in itself. Each time we go, we take in the architectural beauty maintained in this beautiful theater and its halls. The lighting..so many different wall sconces and chandeliers throughout. The wallpaper adds a modern vintage feel. The hand rails going down the stairs have gorgeous designs as well. We always love our seats. A good time is sure to be had by all when attending a performance!

Beautiful theater
Enjoy the beauty of this impressive theater as you get ready for your show. Even with a packed house, the theater never felt crowded.
