★★★★★Roman RomeoOne of most comfy, cozy, intimate theateres in LA.. 🫶
★★★★★Elizabeth LascheidWe have been to the Santa Monica Playhouse now at least 20 times. We take our special needs grandson and he loves it. He is 19 now and loves the kid's play as much as he did when he was 3. The Playhouse is located in a great area in Santa Monica and there are a lot of eateries and places to walk. The 3rfd St. Promenade is just a block away. Parking is easy in the public parking lot right across the street, it is for a small fee. All of the kid's plays are great and our grandson has not missed one yet. They also do holiday themed plays. The prices are great, this is one of the last places you can take a kid and not spend more than 18$ a ticket and often less. The staff is the nicest. It is not for profit and the entire staff and actors work for free. They also have Birthday parties. The place is small and adorable you will love it.
★★★★★Lisa ViscaSanta Monica Playhouse is like coming home. The shows, theaters, employees, and the co owners & artistic directors: Chris & Evelyn are incomparable. Live theater is a blessing in the world we live in. Thanks for making a difference!
★★★★★Brooke LynnLove drunk theatre here! They’re so amazing. The staff is really kind too and made accommodations for my wheelchair which I really appreciated.
★★★Melanie CarlsonThe Drunken Improv here is an enjoyable show for the most part but there were some less than stellar observations: The show advertises that a member of the cast will take 5 shots prior to the show's start but they actually only end up taking 3. I thought I had heard wrong until within the audience I heard someone say "Did you see that? They switched the glasses." And the crowd only verbally shouted for 3 shots. So, false advertising but they did slide in a magic show. They did add an additional shot after intermission but still..... The show was fun enough that there was one woman who was literally shrieking with laughter but the cast called her out towards the end of the show. Not cool. Right after, you could tell she quieted down, as did the crowd. Way to humiliate your paying crowd. Then to conclude, they jokingly say, if you didn't like anything about the show, don't tell anybody. Cheers.
