I drove 3 hours to this theatre to see a fantastic show that I had been waiting months to see. There was plenty of convenient parking across the street and the restrooms were surprisingly clean. But this is were anything good in this review ends. In front of paying ticket holders waiting in line outside, the owner made a big fuss with a work crew about street parking when they showed up to mark what few spaces there were - again, plenty across the street. That put out a bad vibe before I ever stepped inside. The performance space is very cramped and there is no elevated stage, so visibility is a big problem. Then I later learned through the fan club of the act I went to see that the owner was unwilling to assist the performers in any way during an emergency situation. Cue the Beatles "I, Me, Mine!" I wont be back.

NOT A REAL THEATRE The show was amazing that I saw but this is no theatre. It was obviously built to be a posh store not a place for art and expression. There is no stage so we could hardly see the show as it is all one flat plain. I heard that the owner gave the performers trouble too! No respect for the performers makes a tense show. Warn your friends away from performing here as the owner has no interest in helping the people who have rented the space. It is also small and cramped and obviously half heartedly decorated.
