The Corcoran GroupJanuary 23, 2012What better way to enjoy an evening with singing naked men (if that’s your thing) than with a drink or two at your seat! You can do that here!
James StressMay 26, 2013Songs at the new world on Monday nights is delightful, entertaining and showcases some of new yorks most talented voices in a smaller, more comfortable and kitschy setting. Amazing 2dollar shots
Come Monday nights for musical theatre karaoke. There's a bar and a live piano player, and the host Colleen and her sexy librarian are very welcoming to newcomers and regulars alike.
Andrew CNovember 28, 2019Great venue for off-Broadway shows... small theatres with so many great show options!!!! Same drink/snack prices as Broadway tho
loran jonakJuly 4, 2017We saw Imbible in the green room. Wonderful little musical inside the bar that usually serves the main stages.
Brian ButlerOctober 12, 2018Not a bad seat in the house... saw Desperate Measures which was awesome. Talented voices and well written funny show
Andres ElizondoMarch 16, 2019Fantastic theatre! I saw the Avenue Q production and The Play That Goes Wrong, which were masterfully done.
Cole KennedySeptember 29, 2016Cool, contemporary performing arts and event space that's entirely underground. Needs more outlets for conferences though.
Breanne StoreyOctober 8, 2012Avenue Q is a hilarious musical, think adult Sesame Street! Plus they serve you drinks in your seat @ this theatre ( no waiting in long intermission lines)
CarlaAugust 23, 2013Cool show! Music wasn't bad but could have been better. The dancers and illusions are awesome :)
Louis MattaFebruary 2, 2015Pretty large and well kept venue for off-Broadway shows; cool bar areas and nice staff
Lia WrennJanuary 18, 2013Avenue Q was amazing! Definitely worth it to go see!!! Couldn't stop laughing during the entire show
Come on Thursdays between 830 and 10pm for the Kitty Glitter Cabaret. Great performers and cheap drinks!
Renae MasonSeptember 5, 2015Avenue Q was hilarious, go get some life lessons from messed up Muppets, you won't regret it.
Patrick SalviDecember 17, 2017Brilliant place. Looks tiny outside but loads of space and room inside with some cosy theatres.
- went there for an off-broadway show, didn't order drinks but they have waiters serving drinks in the intermission.
Nate BeattyMarch 13, 2016Fine event space. They manage to have good internet support for conferences, which is impressive
Victoria WeinsteinApril 27, 2013What a gorgeous new theatre space!! I can't say much for "Peter And the Starcatcher," which was lots clever staging + wockadoo-wockadoo physical humor but HORRIBLE script. Terrible Brit accents, too.
Justin LukeApril 17, 2012Come by the Time Out NY Lounge for cheap drinks, cute boys, and Broadway open mic EVERY Monday!
- Madhumanti SarkarJanuary 29, 2013Avenue Q is super entertaining, super hilarious, an awesome show. Must watch!
Mack ElderSeptember 14, 2011This used to be an absurdly cheap movie theater. Now it's a rather inexpensive legit house. Go and take your pick of the always-great shows.
TeamInTraining NYCJune 6, 2011Tues., June 7 @ 6:30pm. Team In Training hosts their season Kick Off event. Anyone can come learn about training for a full or half marathon or triathlon. tnt.rsvpnyc@lls.org for info or to RSVP.
Adam CurtisDecember 29, 2011Saw Rent here. Best live performance I have seen. Amazingly classy, yet relaxed venue.
Yani ImanJuly 10, 2014Everything was great even though my first encounter was with the extremely rude bartender at The Green Room. Weird how he didn't see me right in front of his face? Is it because I'm Asian?😉
- StageBuddyFebruary 12, 2013Did you know "Avenue Q" opened here only 2 weeks after closing on Broadway? Read more
"Artist if Light is amazing! I'm still trying to comprehend if what I just say was real.
Christine WeiSeptember 5, 2011Caught one of the last shows of Avenue Q at this theater. The casual space is small, so any seat you nab will be pretty close to the stage. Read more
Isa ChuNovember 16, 2010you can bring your drink into the theater!? awesome... or you can order from your seat, and they'll bring it to you!
Rob WilkDecember 22, 2013Take the kids to see the bubble show...it's awesome and not torture for the parents either!
Come and see "Forever Dusty" such a great story with fantastic music!

"So awesome! First time at this type of show. Really fun and interesting. Be ready to move around a lot and it be very windy, looking up most of the time. Also, naked girls (well, almost)."
