Bidra med feedbackWe had a function in the Great Hall that was fantastic. What a gem for such a small city. We have gone to concerts in the Krannert Center and the acoustics are more than acceptable.
The play was wonderful, the kids was so cute We really enjoy... staff members was very polite and helpful
There are 7 stages in the center, if you count the one in the lobby, the one in the basement, and the amphitheater outside. The best is the Foellinger Great Hall, which has fabulous acoustics that keep attracting some of the best symphonies to come and perform. Each year, I buy about 10 sets of tickets for performances at the center, and have seen many of the top 20 symphonies perform here.
We purchased 5 tickets in the second row BEFORE I broke my ankle and had to have surgery...so I am non weight bearing. You either have to navigate the stairs or are forced to sit in a tiny section at the TOP of the main seating area (a looooooong way from the stage). They have stairs down the middle of the auditorium and also stairs on both sides of the seating areas. The stairs on the sides need to be converted to wheelchair ramps. I ended up going down the stairs and then back up them on my rear end, which was neither convenient, comfortable nor dignified. If there had been an emergency, I would never have been able to make it out of the building in a timely manner. We saw the Nutcracker Production which I would rate a 5...but when I combine it with a 1 for the lack of accessibility, then it comes to a 3. Seriously, this is 2019...WAY past time for a wheelchair ramp!!!
I'm surprised by the lack of reviews for Intermezzo. Located inside the Krannert Center, it's a popular spot for students, staff, and faculty at UIUC. First off, they only serve breakfast and lunch. Their menu is pretty simple, but they have various offerings. I've only had lunch here, but their breakfast menu looks great as well. They have a regular lunch menu in addition to lunch specials that chance daily. Basically, you order food from the start, get a written piece of paper with what you ordered, and pay up front. Then, you're food is ready for pickup at the side. They have utensils, sauces, bags, and napkins right nearby. What I like the most about Intermezzo is how quick the process is with ordering and picking up food. Pricing is also relatively cheap as well. They have plenty of seating at Krannert and it can get pretty busy during peak weekday hours.
