Theatre is well kept and shows its age well. Seats are for the below average in height and weight. Our mezzanine seats gave us ample view and our fellow opera goers were reasonable in their use of cell phone lights. Yale opera presented Evgeny Onegin. Found the choice to play Onegin curious. If you make it a day or night in town with tickets and a restaurant you will be out $400 dollars easy. Parking is great.

Shubert Theater is a treasure of New Haven. It is a theater that seats 1600 people that was opened in 1914. Back in the day, shows would debut here as a proving ground on its way to Broadway. The seats are comfortable and the staff is very helpful and knowledgeable. A great place to see any genre of show, be it a Broadway musical, a comedy show, even concerts. I recommend it highly.
