I love this place! So beautiful on the inside. Some great productions. Dress in layers, it's usually quite cold also.

Melinda Wilson

Great venue! They use a lot of local talent which Seattle has some very talented performers living here. Their productions are top notch. Go see a show!

Marilyn Welniak

Probably my favorite theatre in Seattle. They always put on amazing plays and the atmosphere is wonderful.

Sandra Fan

There’s a bar on every level so don’t wait at the main level one like a chump. Lines are shorter upstairs . There’s also multiple restrooms . Pick the shortest line .

Second Sunday is "Talkback" with the cast after the show. Stay after and ask questions of the actors, musicians , stage crew, and producers.

Ricardo Hernandez

Nice Chinese themed theatre . Good views from all locations. Seats are a bit uncomfortable for 2+hr functions.

Sundays are a great night. Not as crazy as Thur. Fri.

Head upstairs at Intermission - bigger bathroom facilities and fewer people in line .

Diana Diaz

Ladies, don't bother lining up at the restrooms near the entrance while getting in everyone's way when there are tons of stalls upstairs .

The restrooms upstairs have WAY more capacity and there's a far shorter line as a result.
