So, an act of vandalism and assault was enacted on a member of the public outside the club, who was behaving within the law and doing nothing aggressive or out of order. The Bouncers witnessed this act, witnessed the victim call the police, then proceeded to allow the perpertrator into the club, ( ahead of the que, as the perp was on the curb and not in line ). A police report was filed, but the cops couldnt continue as the Security had aided and abetted the criminal by allowing access to the club, with full knowledge of the crime and the impending arrival of the law. The victim asked for the manager, and as he was waiting the police were forced to leave. The head of security came out and proceeded to agressively mock the victim, making micro aggressions and accusing the victim of racism when trying to point out the doormen who assisted in the perps evasion of the law. The other doormen also mocked the victim. Then the GM came out.( Twitter/ somegirlnamedm. Aka Molly Hanson.) She was very abusive to the victim, mocked him also, and outright stated she didnt care that a crime had occured and would have, and would do the same in future if able. She then proceeded to assault the victim by making aggressive and unwarranted physical contact with the victim with aims to intimidate and embarrass him. So the crime went unpunished, 1000 dollars worth of vandalism to a persons property, and the victim intimidated, slandered, mocked and abused by security and management. Unfortunately for the club, the whole incident was caught on film, and will be posted online and hopefully used as evidence in a lawsuit against the club. As someone who manages nightclubs and security i find this behaviour and attitude unbelievable, that a manager and security would purposfully obstruct justice and then revel in the criminal behaviour. I would seriously consider terminating contracts with all employees participating in this abhorrent behaviour. The whole world is able to see these actions, and im sure the owners and shareholders are going to be very embarrassed by the flood of negativity about to hit them. I would highly recommend never giving your patronage to such a corrupt and abusive establishment.

This club was terrible.... After being in downtown LA until around 1 a.m., we decided to head over to Playhouse exclusively because of the late closing time. This was a mistake. This club is extremely low end and dirty; which unfortunately also describes the patron demographic. Especially in areas such as Hollywood where hot spots are so recognizable, a clubs lifespan is very apparent. It was very clear that this club had passed its glory days and now attracts the lower end of society. The most irritating part of the night happens to be one of the clubs trademark events (according to frequent guests I have spoke with), all of the waitresses climb onto the bar in front of the DJ booth, and make it rain on their guests with napkins!!! (the raining money effect) having napkins all over me and stuck to my shoes was not appreciated. I know that its hard to believe at this point in my review that there were any pros of this club but there were a few. First off, the waitresses were unbelievably beautiful! Made the patrons of the club look like trolls. Second, the DJ, music selection, and quality of the sound system was very good. These things made the night tolerable but I wont be returning or recommending this place to anyone.

Where do I even begin with this club? Smh. If I could give it no stars I would. I came out Saturday night because I heard it was a popular hip hop club. It opens at 11 so I arrived around midnight. Waited in line for over an hour and the line barely moved. The bouncers were offering an "express line" aka you pay me money and entry fee I ll walk you to the front of the line. For men the fee was 65 on top of the 40 dollar entry fee and for women it was 40 on top of the 40 dollar entry fee. If you bought a ticket for the event you still had to wait in line which I wasnt sure how people were able to do so because on their website it says tickets are only sold at the door. I ended up leaving that night and tried again Sunday for the pre Fourth of July bash and it was the same bullshit from the previous night. Mind you I arrived earlier around 1130. The bouncers and the club are a joke. I give it another year before its shut down. Charging Vegas prices for a hole in the wall no thanks. I wouldnt recommend this club to anyone.

This place sucks in terms of services from its employees, especially the man in charge of the entrance place. His name is Kevin. He is such a greedy and disgusting axxhole. He can keep poeple outside and waiting in the line for over an hour and half even though there are no guests or prepaied people to enter and there are plenty of room to allow more people in. A hour and half is just what I and my friends waited and eventually we left. He kept implying us that we need to pay an extra $100 plus tickets to enter, otherwise we shall wait for another hour. The worst part was that when another employee allowed us to enter, he rushed over and pushed all us out and said again, without $100, we got to wait. At that point, we left. With this guy at the gate, I would never go there. He is just such greedy and disgusting. Event Avalon security just ask for $10 to $20 to enter immediately. If you dont want to pay, then wait for 15 to 20 minutes, you can still get it. Playhouse suck.

I wish I could give negative stars.... just a little background about myself... I travel Im completely aware of how the nightlife works in major cities and honestly its to be expected major city=highly superficial.... I have never had an issue because they do go based on looks which again expected but please be prepared to wait in a extra long line for no reason... also be prepared for whites and lighter complexion women to be catered to... if you are a darker women like myself forget about unless you came on your A game !! I didnt have a problem getting in but the basically had my friends step out of line to see if they could come with me analyzed them and said no mind you my friends were beautiful and Im not just saying that but they were black colorism is very real. If you dont have a table or connections Be prepared to wait over an hour in line Skipped over Analyzed Etc. This could be a great club but the entry process knocks its potential down to below subpar.

Bought tickets in advance for a show Sat night. Bought 5 tickets and was told the doors opened at 10:30....we got there at 11 and there was a short line. We waited in this line even though we had tickets for about an hour and a half. It didnt move, however I watched bouncers walk up to girls in the line talk to them for a few and then walk them in the door, I was told if I wanted to get in I could throw them $40 to get past the line, mind you, I had TICKETS. We left after another half hour because it was almost last call and this wasnt going anywhere. When i attempted to get a refund from the ticket company I was told they dont give refunds. Shouldve expected that since this place is clearly a scam. So out about 188 for tickets to a show I never saw. I would NEVER send anyone here.
