Description
This compact venue packs a lot into a tiny island: a roughly 200-seat theater with an intimate vibe and good sound, and a kids' spray park for downtime. The setting is walkable to food and drinks, with parking right there—though you'll need to pay by phone or QR code before entering, which has caused some confusion. Inside, the seats are school-auditorium style, so don't expect plush comfort. It's a charming spot for a premiere or a live show when you're okay with a few quirks.
