I have been seeing ACLO productions for years and have never been disappointed. They do a high quality show for a very reasonable price. Just saw "Ragtime" and my rating holds -- A+++.

Alameda Civic Light Opera is one of the best live theater experiences available in the Bay Area. I have been to 5 different productions and all were as professional as any in San Francisco or Las Vegas. The singing and dancing is inspiring and the sets are well done. The Koffman Auditorium is a charming older theater. The only draw back is the older seats. The cost is very very reasonable for the quality of the shows. Parking is free!
