★★★★Kenneth AdelspergerGreat place to go for any activity or fun time
★★★★★Mayuri BhandariWhat a wonderful, welcoming, communal venue! I was invited to perform here by the Zero to Fierce Festival, and the team here has it going on! I worked with Jackie, Joyful, TL, Mobius, and so many other team members; I'm so grateful to have performed my show THE ANTI "YOGI": Liberation, Not Lululemon, at such a supportive space! I was impressed by the community engagement, hunger, and interest to listen/participate/share. The artwork presented inside is beautiful, the space hosts so many types of shows- and it can accommodate a lot of people! It is truly a communal space; hosting lunchbox sessions to discuss the topics with the artists coming in and the radio station is right next door. Everyone is very supportive toward artists and helping artists; they are engaged in supporting the artist however they may need. They display art work/exhibits in the common area and try to bring in diverse stories that need to be heard. I definitely will recommend this place and festival with others! Thank you all to the team, the viewers, and the community! My percussionist, Neel and I had a tremendous experience and very much wish to return again soon. Please check out what this space does!
★★★★★Eli BaumWhat an amazing venue! So beautiful and fun and amazing acoustics and energy. The staff was super helpful and friendly and made me feel truly at home. Definitely would return to this awesome theatre which has so many fun and family friendly shows, both theatrical and musical and everything in between.
