"*** This review is for the Jim 3 House of Performing Arts ***\n\nI've been to Bishop Gorman several times to see shows in the Jim 3 House of performing Arts. The Jim 3 entrance is directly across from the stadium entrance. The performing arts center has both an auditorium for large productions and a smaller black box theatre.\n\nThe seating in the main theatre is classic high school auditorium. There is a proscenium stage and the seating is arranged in three sections, left, center, and right--standard seating for many theatres. Seating is comfortable. If I had any quibble with the auditorium it would be that I think the pitch of the seating should be a greater degree to ensure better viewing when you have a tall, big hair person, or inconsiderate jerk who sits there with a hat (oh there are more jerks than you think, male and female).\n\nLast night, I attended a production of Stephen Sondheim's \"Into the Woods.\" The lighting in the theatre was well designed. Most of it is above the first few rows in a ceiling area, and it's very much out of the way and unseen. Sound in the theatre is great! Actors could be heard easily whether speaking in low volume or above. \n\nI really like the theatre and hope to see many more productions here."^^ . "1"^^ . .
