City Stage Theatre is set in the heart of downtown Wilmington. Architecturally it is an interesting venue that could use some updates. The AC/heat, carpets, elevator and bathrooms are pretty run down. I have never seen a bad performance at City Stage. They put on great work.

But the only show I've seen there was Chicago and it was the most professional show we've seen here in 2 years. For movies don't go unless you can get a set in front of the rod... More
