Description

The venue's layout ensures a great view from every seat, though the seats are narrow and snug. Beyond the stage, which showcases multicultural programming, the theater features a bar on the first floor and a snack stand on the second. It sits near the vibrant restaurants of 14th Street, offering a classic performance experience with a few physical compromises, like small, poorly ventilated restrooms.
