We went to see Mid summers night dream, the story was pretty good, the acting was professional and fun. The stage however felt like it was high school level with a $70 price attached… Unimpressed by the stage set up. It needs more props, more bang, more animation and more uniqueness. Beautiful facility though with good actors and a lot of potential if they improve the stage sets.
I had the honor of photographing this beautiful wedding at the Guthrie theater and it was such an awesome spot to host a wedding! The location has so many nearby spots for photos and also the staff is truly amazing, I couldn’t recommend them more! I look forward to photographing there again!
I had not been to the Guthrie theater in 15+ years. We had some family pictures taken there as well as we went to A Christmas Carol. This is a beautiful venue. Access and parking are plenty. Elevators for those who need them. The theater is a perfect size. There are bathrooms all around the theater and a bar that is easy to get to for a drink if you are so inclined (during shows only)
The gift shop has some neat items and fun Minnesota things.
Excellent venue for pictures; however the transparent floor triggered my fear of heights and that was a no go for me. I can’t believe people walk on that!

Didn’t get to attend a show but it’s great that the building is open to the public to explore. The architecture is one of a kind and I love the well-curated gift shop. I spent about an hour poking around – well worth it.
We went to A Midsummer Night’s Dream. It was a wonderful production and there aren’t any bad seats at the Guthrie. This is world class theatre!
Exceptional. One of the best interpretations of A Christmas Carol that I’d ever seen. The lighting, sound design, sets, costumes, singing/acting, transitions between scenes, etc. – just fantastic. Bravo.
The Guthrie Theatre is a performing arts theater, but we went there for the view.
It is free to walk in and take the elevator to the 5th floor Blue Room and then outside to the lookout where there are spectacular views of the Stone Arch Bridge and the city. Then you take a different elevator up to the 9th floor yellow room where there are even more spectacular and higher views of the city.
I recently went to the Guthrie for the first time and wow what an experience! I saw the show Little Shop of Horrors and it was an absolutely phenomenal experience!! I can’t wait to go back. And aside from the theater, the building itself is nice to explore. The endless bridge, the amber room, all the windows showcasing downtown Minneapolis, the cute giftshop, etc. Highly, highly recommend!!
