This is always a five to ten star gala event. And the proceeds go to needy charities. Whatever the entertainment; it is always first cabin.
Event was wonderful and for such a great cause. The performers couldn't have been better!!!!! Will go again next year.
The show was fine and then changed gears when Carol Cook got going!!?? Send that Texan back to live with the Bushes!!!!!!!!!!! A bit "coarse" and she could barely stand up. Almost ruined the great mood that had been set before she came on!
Loved Tyne Daly and Wesla and Mike are always great!
A great charity and they need money with all the cuts from the Republicans in Sacramento!!

The Herbst is small by most performing-arts standards (only 928 seats). So despite its stately appearance, it provides a refreshingly intimate atmosphere.
Wine, beer, soda and coffee are often available in the Main Veterans marbled lobby for shows with intermissions (not lectures).
