From the reviews
I went to an elementary school production of Peter pan Jr., at the Sullivan performing arts center, and I thought the theater itself was great. There were roughly 600 seats in the main floor area, and behind that a large walkway, then a low wall and a low balcony, which had probably another 150 to 200 seats.
We were there for a dance competition and so far has been the easiest to get to and from backstage, security guards were very friendly, nice open seating

Nice place for performances. Went to see my 5 year old great-niece and got to see a whole show of ballet and tap acts from local kids. The seats are good and the sound is great.
Your first ballet class at Sullivan Performing Arts Center
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
