    This theater is big gorgeous and amazing. You will not regret going here to see a show. Skip Bourbon Street and do something in New Orleans with real culture. Looooove the Sanger so much!!!! The design artwork and attention to detail by the people that made it is truly impressive.

    security wouldn't let us in because my fiancé had his camera in his bag, which is fair, we just missed that they weren't allowed. a few people behind us in line was a white couple, one of whom was wearing a camera around their neck, and we watched them be let in as we were trying to decide what to do. absolutely disgusted. we did not end up seeing our show.

    This is a historic theatre you should definitely include on a New Orleans visit. They don’t build them like this anymore. Both interior and exterior finishes are gorgeous. The star like ceilings are a sight to see. The acoustics for concerts is perfect. There is no echo or hollowness. The staff are kind and efficient. Our wait in security line was less than five minutes. There are adequate food and drink locations. Be prepared to pay premium prices for food or drink.
