this is a local theater and its mostly the community involved with the shows. Some university students come 'over' and be in plays also. they are current with a lot of shows. its homey theater, been a theater for years, and is registered as a national treasure. IT has won numerous awards both state, national and even international competitions. Go and just have a good time.

THE TOYMAKER was on stage this past Saturday to Muncie Civic Theater. The format was very unusual and very enjoyable. I always enjoy an evening at Muncie Civic.

Muncie Civic provides a tremendous atmosphere for our local actors/singers/directors as well as pulling some students from Ball State for year round productions. The Historic Building has been restored in many areas, and is beautifully maintained with great oak features. More is needed to be done, like seats need to be replaced (but that takes $$$).We recently saw My Son Picciochio and it was WONDERFUL show. The actors and kids did an unbelievable job. We took our grand daughters and they loved the show.

We saw the musical Cabaret, and enjoyed the music, the singing, the acting, the sets, costumes very much. The old theater has a great ambience.

Muncie Civic Theatre is a downtown landmark. It isn't a fancy venue. You can expect a small theatre with balcony, showing signs of its age, but with productions of excellent quality. Last night we went to see Cabaret. The cast included experienced Civic performers, as well as young talent from the theater department at Ball State University. This is typical of other Civic performances I have attended.As a hearing-impaired person, I appreciate the fact that new speakers have been installed that allow me to catch all the dialogue. The music between acts was a too loud for conversation, but we were in the front row, directly in front of the speakers. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. Student discounts are available.

The Muncie Civic Theatre is a great place to experience local talent and spend an evening enlightening ones mind whilst supporting local actors, their dreams and the arts. Is it Broadway? Is it Professional? Even Local "for-profit"? No. But, it IS an outlet for local people to explore the arts... they try hard and they make up for lack of grants, money and funds.Some.... much wealthier theatres have had poorer productions that I have seen. I have seen first hand that hard work and innovative creative minds have led to very well done productions in this community. Bravo and well done. However, many renovations and technical issues could be resolved. Still for an affordable live show this is a must when living or traveling in Muncie.

Muncie Civic Theater provides a great value with fine entertainment featuring local actors/singers/directors year round in a historic building. Restoration has been done in several areas in the building (and more is needed) but the last few years have shown an upsurge in the quality of the shows, the appearance of the building, and the excitement in the community. It is truly a place where family entertainment is prevalent (but more edgy material is also staged).

Pulling a local talent base and students from area universities like Ball State, the shows are pretty good. They are not all broadway quality, but I have seen some stellar performances. If you're debating about attending a show - go ahead and give it a try. For the price, you'll enjoy the experience.

I have been to many shows at Civic Theater and I have enjoyed every one of the shows. The arts in Muncie, IN are great and I would take a date, family, or friends. A great way to show your support in the community as well as see a great show.

Very old Building, lacking in accomadations for the eldery and handicapped. Not comfortable seating either.

Old theater that has a following in a middle America town. You'll love the decor and the people. Ball State University students as well as local citizens perform drama, plays, and musicals. Well worth season tickets. Come and enjoy!

My little girls had a blast at the Blue's Clues show. It was a cute performance put on by children and adults. They got to draw the three clues in the note books we brought and felt like they were a part of the show. The architecture in the theatre is absolutely beautiful. The seats are a little small as it's an older theatre, but the overall experience was fun.
