I am indeed a fan of the Smith Center! It is a welcome addition to the Las Vegas cultural scene(cough - what scene- cough).  It's really beautifully designed and is pretty easy to navigate from parking to seating.  Parking is free in the lot, or they have valet for a fee ($8? maybe?).  The valet doesn't really help you avoid traffic and the lot is very close, so it's not really worth it unless you have difficulty walking.\n\nI've seen a couple of shows here, and I will say that it seems like the sound can be hit or miss, perhaps depending on where you sit.  I have been in the balcony both times, and even pretty high up, the view of the stage is good.  The quality of the performances was very high, and I look forward to attend more shows in the coming season.\n\nThey have a bar for pre-show drinks and snacks, and offer a limited variety of wine, beer, and liquors at high, but not insanely outrageous, prices.  Oh, and for all you boozers out there, they now offer collectible \"sippy cups\" so for $3 extra you can take your drink into the theatre with you.
