    Treat yourself to a delightful and nostalgic trip down memory lane with Supreme Reflections, an elegant and cheerful tribute to the music of the most famous female singing group of all time, Diana Ross and The Supremes. The trilling performance of the artists made me feel like I was back in time listening to the actual Supremes, singing and dancing on stage with sensational gowns and hip moves. As a back drop to the show, the audience was treated to a photo history of the Supremes with songs such as “I’m gonna make you love me” as well as “Stop in the name of Love” and hits too numerous to mention. The setting for this wonderful production could not have been better than Center Stage Theatre in Fontana. Built in 1937 by one of the best know architects of that time, the theatre has been renovated and technically upgraded to the tune of 6.5 million dollars. In additional to all this, Center Stage serves dinner with its shows. I ordered the Citrus Salmon which was absolutely scrumptious. Collapse

    The ornately elegant California theatre is a treat unto itself. The Theatre was built in 1928 as a vaudeville movie palace and still houses the Wurlitzer style 216 pipe organ. Despite opening just before the great depression, the theatre has never been closed in 83 years. The elaborative craftsmanship of the building is a feast for the eyes, while the fantastic musical line up is a feast for the ears. The theatre in managed by Theatrical Arts International, the largest theatre company in the Inland Empire. If you missed hearing Amy Grant, don't make the same mistake twice, be sure to purchase tickets to see the theatre's next exciting performance, Rock Legend Chuck Berry in Concert Collapse

    Saw this AMAZING production of CATS at Music Theater West, and I WAS TOTALLY- BLOWN-AWAY! I saw this musical six other times, but this production of CATS was THE BEST!!! This production was a "well-put-together show" from start to finish. The lighting design was OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD! The actors were ALL AMAZING!!! Clent Bowers, was wonderful as Old Deuteronomy. He sang so clearly and I understood every word. Colette Peters was so funny and entertaining as Jennyanydots and I loved the way she sang her songs. I didn't know that cats could tap-dance, but she made all the cats look so great tapping with her. Wow! Kelli Provart has a power-house of a voice, and she portrayed Grizabella like none other! Wish the show hadn't ended so soon. I wanted to return back with my mother who is 88 years young, and who LOVES CATS! Collapse

    Five Guys named Moe is a must see production by Center Stage Theater in Fontana. A lively, feel good show revolving around a guy on the path of self destruction who is helped by five “Moes” in a kickin’ performance that’s guaranteed to get you out of your seat and dancing with the crew. Enjoy the well choreographed adventure with fluid movements. The delightful cast and talented live jazz band received a well deserved standing ovation as the truly hilarious and fun skit carried an important message about life. Collapse

    Treat yourself to the Inland Empire's Hidden Gem, Tibbies Center Stage in Fontana. Built in 1937 by one of the best known architects of that time, the theater has recently been renovated and technically upgraded to the tune of 6.5 million dollars. The result is the most elegant and delightful dinner theater anywhere in Southern California. The food is absolutely scrumptious. My Date easily cut his steak with a butter knife. I enjoyed the vegetarian penne pasta, with a savory marinara sauce. The molten chocolate cake with homemade vanilla bean ice cream was out of this world. The entertainment venue chosen by Tibbies Center Stage in Fontana is both witty and captivating. Do yourself a favor, purchase tickets for the next show at Tibbies. You will be glad you did.

    No one better captures the energy and all-encompassing fun of the 70's and 80's better than Tibbies Center Stage in Fontana. The cast's high spirited and remarkable performance was electrifying. The show was outrageously witty. The entire audience was in stitches over the hilarious "guest appearance" of none other than... well, you'll have to see the show. I am still in awe at how the cast packed so much fun into one evening, all while serving a delectable dinner. Dancing on the Ceiling is the most enjoyable performance I have seen in years! Collapse

    It was very dreamlike, even though I don't think I've had any dreams quite like this. I found that it was not easy to make sense of the whole, but each part seemed very powerful. The space was small and the stage was very close. The room got hot from all the energy that seemed to gradually build up. Koyote the Blind is a Shaman, a man of knowledge. A Toltec. His performance was very trance like. His eyes don't look like they are seeing anything in this world. There was an emotional charge that seemed to last long after the event was over. The staff at the Tequihua Foundation were very nice. Koyote came out afterward an talked to the people who stayed. That talk was at least as good as the performance. This man gave amazing answers to questions I have wondered about my whole life. I thought it was cool that he talked to the kids who asked questions with the same care and respect that he used when talking to adults. I think maybe the kids understood him best. Collapse
