One of the best places to see theater in NYC as it should be presented - intimate, simple and pure in an amazing venue that speaks to the collective experience and history.- Andrew CJuly 23, 2014This is hands down one the city's best theatres! Don't miss the chance to see a classic film here!
Buy a reusable BAM cup for $5 so you can bring your wine or beer into the theater - remember to bring it back the next time, though!
suzanne 🌶May 2, 2018Arrived a bit late for King Lear, and had to wait a while to be seated. Missed the beginning of the show. Don’t be late!
Marc SNovember 12, 2018Try to arrive early and enjoy the bar area: as though carved right into a very old building.
The Corcoran GroupJanuary 23, 2012This state of the art theater draws some of the biggest stars in some of the most avant-garde productions around! Come early to enjoy a drink and the awesome atmosphere.
Hunter TauFebruary 3, 2012One of those theaters that is so unique that it almsot rivals the show you're seeing. Love how they decided to purposely let it fall apart.
- If you're trying to decide between the left & right side of the upper orchestra, buy the left. You're more likely to be moved if they need to shift people to the lower orchestra.
Ryan MatznerOctober 6, 2018Fun fact: before BAM acquired this building, it was, among other incarnations, a porn theater.
Christen DuongAugust 27, 2011Make a night of it and try out the Brooklyn food scene. Anywhere but right around the theater (take the subway a stop or two away).
Rebecca AtwoodJanuary 4, 2015Go have dinner somewhere on Fort Greene park after seeing a movie. Walter's or Martha are great spots nearby.
You can pre-order drinks for intermission before the show. This way you can actually have time to consume the drink rather than spend the whole intermission on line.
BAM's off-campus venue for premiere programming: theater, big-screen movies, dance, music.
AriZona Iced TeaJanuary 18, 2011Great film festival for kids and one of the only places in NYC to catch a classic film on the big screen!
Time Out New YorkSeptember 10, 2010See a top-notch lineup of established and experimental dance troupes, talks, film and art events during BAM's Next Wave Festival.
Ben CombeeApril 29, 2010If you have gallery seats, show up early and you might get upgraded to orchestra.
