| - I came back when I was in the neighbourhood and the cleanliness is still an issue. Im not sure why they don't try to give a great experience in every aspect ... no one likes a gross bathroom.
I would have liked to award a 4 star for Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts but my recent attendance for an event left me puzzled on how it could let their facility fall into such mess. I'll explain more later but onto the positives...
I applaud how the different cities of the GTA try to bring in more culture and appreciation for the performance arts. You have Living Arts in Mississauga, Rose Theatre in Brampton, and the RHCPA is Richmond Hill. There are a lot of positives going for RHCPA and the residence seem to appreciate it. The parking lot (which is supposedly about 250 spots and free.. woo!) was completely filled up for the evening. So RH'ers definitely use the theatre.
I would first say that it's a cosy, intimate, and modern space in a quaint street in Richmond Hill. I wasn't expecting a venue jutting out of the cute historical looking area. I like how there's free parking... it's not easy to bring the masses to one spot without making it frustrating to find parking. RH does it well with the free large lot behind it. The space itself has big open vertical spaces which gives an airiness that can hide the smaller footprint. Though I was there in the evening, I can see easily how the large vast windows would being in lots of great natural light that brightens up the space. For the staffing of the venue, I appreciated how there was several of them placed in the hallways to help with any questions.
So here's the reason why I docked a star ... the women's washroom and for once, it wasn't about the wait. This is totally about the mess in there. Being in other spots, I know patrons are the reason for the insane mess left behind but I often see staff in there cleaning it up as it goes or right after an intermission. But this spot, before both a performance and an event starts up... it looks like a bathroom tissue bomb went off or a herd of kittens went in and terrorized every toilet tissue roll and shredded everything and left it on the ground. You could not walk a single spot without stepping on at least 2 pieces of tissue. Ew.
Hopefully they learn to clean more often so it doesnt leave a bad last impression on patrons. It's a simple basic offering ... a clean washroom while enjoying something beautiful as music, drama, or event a fun event with fellow GTAers.
