I attend as many performances as possible at this theater. There is not a bad seat in the house. The acoustics are amazing and the atmosphere is out of the world. The staff is outstanding. A must attend location if given the chance.
Was privileged to see Lee Greenwood in concert in August 2014. Awesome venue. One of the best concerts I've been to in a long time.
One of the most unexpected finds in Lincoln County is the fabulous Spencer Theater out on Highway 220 minutes from Ruidoso, New Mexico. We have gone to several broadway type shows at the theater and have enjoyed every single show. The theater is laid out in an awesome manner and I do not believe there is a bad seat in the house. Compared to other theaters that we frequent (the Smith Center in Las Vegas), all the shows are very reasonably priced. Occasionally, they host a dinner prior to the show which is reasonably priced. The bars have just about anything you might want to order.The Spencer Theater is truly a rare gem and we are so thankful that it is just minutes away. Unlike many theaters of its kind, parking is ample and free unless you want to valet park.
I took girlfriends who were visiting from out of state here for the behind the scene's tour. It was great! The tour guide was very knowledgeable. Lots of information and interesting facts. It's a beautiful theater and the Chihuly glass exhibit is beautiful. My husband and I have been to a few concerts here. Not a bad seat in the house. I highly recommend it! Tours are offered on Tuesday's and Thursday's at 10:00 a,m. Recommend you call ahead to make sure the tour if offered when you want to go. Free of charge. There is a donation box.
This is an outstanding theater to see concerts, etc. Every seat is just like you were on stage. There are no bad seats. It is a beautiful facility and they have professional ushers which leads a nice touch, with them dressed in black slacks, white shirts and bow ties.
Saw Broadway Tenors Oct 26, 2014. Gorgeous venue, not a bad seat in the house. Such a wonderful resource for this area of New Mexico, which is sparsely populated. Go there, and enjoy!
Great buffet before performance. This was something we had not tried before. The food was good, and it made the timing of dinner easy to coordinate with performance time. We were a little late calling for tickets, and sat in the balcony for the first time. This is such a well-designed and intimate theater that there are really no bad seats. If you have not seen or heard Ottmar Liebert and Casa Luna, you must seek them out. The wonderful Chiluly glass sculptures that decorate the theater, as well as its outstanding architecture make it worth a trip, even without the concert or the food.
Excellent show! Excellent fascility. This was our first trip to Spencer Theater and we were impressed by the grandeaur of the facility and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. A truly memorable experience.
We have been to a few shows at the Spencer Theater and we always enjoy them. It's a smallish theater so there really are no bad seats. If you are attending a show like West Side Story be sure to get a seat in the first row in the balcony. The view is spectacular. They have a fully stocked bar to get a drink before the show and you can pre-order your drinks for the intermission. Then, you just go to the bar and grab your drink without having to wait. The price of tickets is very reasonable and we are looking forward to attending more shows in the future.
The theater is a beautiful place on the hill for events. We attended during summer vacation in August of 2013. This trip will be attending two event for our 2014 trip. The sound and seating arrangement are good from all locations. Enjoy!!!!
