I’m very happy I got to see a show at the Riverside Theater. I can’t believe how well maintained this place is. It is absolutely beautiful. Every part of it is so well taken care of, and it’s just a fantastic theater. The only negative thing I’ll say is that I’m older and probably should have sat farther back. If you’re in any of the first four rows of the grandstand, you are right there. So if you’ve got bad ears like I do, you might want to sit farther back or bring some earplugs. But that’s just old man problems, not the theater’s. It’s a really nice theater, and I’m glad I finally got to see it.

I just love this theatre! It's like a walk back in time..... And we had a great view, even at 22 rows back. Seats were fairly comfortable And lighting and sound right on point. It is wheelchair accessible and the bathrooms are fine. Be sure to plan ahead and know where you will park.

Such a great show, we saw the Derek Hough Encore tour show and it was phenomenal! Prompt start, beautiful theater, not a bad seat in the house, and there were so many courteous assistants helping us find our way in and out!

Beautiful venue. Staff was awesome; getting everyone in and out in an orderly fashion. Didn't seem like there was a bad seat in the house. Downtown Milwaukee is such a chill place to hang for a weekend away (from Chicago). 10/10 would return for other shows.

Staff is efficient and friendly. I felt safe while I was there. It's an absolutely beautiful venue and I don't think there's a bad view of the stage from any seat. I did subtract one star because the seats are pretty narrow. I think larger people would find them to be very uncomfortable. Included is a view from my seat in section 2L, Row D, Seat 14. Great view despite being pretty far away.
