Having seen many shows in this venue, Not a bad seat in the house. They have a diverse menu of programs. Well placed and formatted to enhance the university and neighborhood community.

This theater provides excellent sound and sight lines but make sure to meet your friends outside, it's hard to get cell reception once you go through the entrance.

Hosted John Kerry and Al Gore, and the recording of The Apprentice's third season finale. The only performing arts center of its kind south of the Lincoln Center. Construction cost = $40 million.

Theater itself is clean and almost every seat has a good view (even the balcony), but my seat felt really cramped after about an hour. Also, mild bummer that we couldn't bring drinks to our seats.

Ticket central is located right next to the main entrance. You can get discounted broadway, opera and sports tickets if u are an nyu student. They also have amc movie pases that are 8.50

This is an excellent, modern venue with exciting acts from all over the world. Skirball's stadium style seating and small-moderate size provide fantastic sightlines no matter where you sit.

Great performance space - spacious, not too big. Hope to see another production here in the future.

I desperately want "skirball" to be a sport, an ultra-violent, stomach-churning, sport in which people regularly lose limbs but gain respect.
Avi MuchnickMarch 4, 2014
Contrary to popular belief and questionable marketing methods, there are no skeeball games available here AT ALL.
