commonweal theatre company

It was a fantastic show. I've been going to Minneapolis shows for years and hadn't been to such a small theatre - but wow did it impress. I fully recommend seeing a show when you're in Lanesboro.

We had the opportunity to visit the Commonweal for their Christmas Show this year. It was performed by three actors, who did a tremendous job! The evening was very enjoyable, and we will definitely be back!

We saw "Around the World in 80 Days". This was our first time at the Commonweal and I hope to be a season ticket holder after seeing this performance. We live two hours away but this was definitely worth the trip. The acting was amazing and the fun fact was that there were five actors playing 34 different characters! The audience jumped out of their seats to give these performers a standing ovation. I am a season ticket holder for various shows in the St Paul - Mpls area and I was very pleased with this Commonweal Theater.

This was an off season production. It only had a cast of three, but they were great. This was the third production we saw this year. It was not as good as the other two but we had a fun time. The actors did a great job and so did the audience. We already have picked out the shows we want to see next season. I recommend anybody who enjoys theatre to visit Lanesboro.

We visited the Commonweal for our first time this weekend. We had no expectations, as we hadn't visited prior to this trip. The theater is clean, and decorated with a lot of interesting stuff. They have many items hanging from the ceiling. The children loved exploring the lobby area discovering all the different little hidden stuff. It was very interesting just to look around the theater lobby.The show was a christmas special, put on by three actors. We were so very glad we had booked the show once it started. The show was well performed. I was very surprised by the quality of the performance. It was on par with performances that cost up to $100/person. This show costs us $30/adult and $15/student. It was an outstanding value. We will be returning, with plans to purchase their season pass which is an even better value!

Commonweal...you did it again. My wife and I had a great time and enjoyed your world class presentation. We are looking forward to our next visit to the theatre. See you soon! -Rob and Paula Lentz

This professional company is a gem! I saw both summer shows done in rep and they were both excellent.

What a treat to experience such a special theater in a very small, but picturesque town. The production of Arcadia was well done and the theater itself, was very nice. We stopped by the box office early to pick up tickets and chatted with two of the actors and were given a hefty set of "Cliff Notes" that helped us understand a very complex play. I heartily recommend the theater, the town and play, Aecadia!

Six of us attended the Commonweal Theater production of Arcadia and we were all very impressed. The play is a real thinker and hard to pull off, but the actors all did a very good job. The theater itself is small and the acoustics are a little annoying, but in general it is well worth the $30 per person to attend.

We saw a preview production of a play at Commonweal. What a wonderful theater! They did a great job and we will definitely be back!

I really enjoyed their production of Arsenic and Old Lace. Not being an experienced theatre goer, I really didn't know what to expect but it was a fun experience. I'll do this again!

Very creative and professional troupe. Very versatile facility with a wide array of offerings. The productions are well done and always entertaining.
