Fun little venue with great music and theater

Beautiful service

Gorgeous and well equipped theatre with amazing acoustics

All day long and twice on Sundays fabulous masterpiece. What a way to get back to the community excellent excellent excellent

Absolutely great show about Billie holiday. This place had plenty of parking but would not let the VERY FEW guest park in their parking lot. There was on street parking on the very busy cottage grove. Next to a large embankment hard to climb. Next to a viaduct, train overpass. Not cool at all at night. But, I will be back, the show was awesome.

Last night saw the play IN THE BLOOD is a phenomenal play . I truly enjoyed it. The last showings are today 3/31@ 3:00pm & 8:00.

I love the work that they do with children!!

Offers excellent opportunities for development of the craft.

It is an established place in the community where one can foster youth programs for aspiring novice.

Wonderful place and location to see a play. Parking is free, easy and convenient.

Neighborhood theater,excellent plays, low costs.

Nice community theater, great for actors and residents. Saw The Tiger Who Wore White Gloves, and enjoyed it!

The summer program was awesome and the plays are always excellent.

Awesome venue for plays & events

I had a great time. I took my whole family. I will taken them again this fall.

Plays at the ETA are usually enjoyable at the least, soul touching at its best. We went and saw If Scrooge was a Brother. This play was neither soul touching or enjoyable. Scrooge is updated to be running several low income housing projects in Chicago. We all know the tale, we see Ebeneezer going through the motions of seeing each ghosts and blah blah blah. What is strange is that in every other remake of this classic, even Bill Murrays interpretation, Scrooge comments on what is taking place before him, he shows regret and empathy. In this version he just stands idly but the past and present take place before him. One interesting change was having the Cratchit daughter be the ghost of Christmas future. She had become a gang banger and blamed Scrooge for it. The Cratchits never blamed anyone, let alone Scrooge for any of their hardships, they were actually thankful for whatever they had. So should we applaud this change, this whining and blaming others for our hardship? Sounds like something a conservative might change the play into, not a Black American. The play was also too long, it went over 2 hours, and there were several audience members who fell asleep, including two who were in our party. Basically the play was too long, not compelling and had a few more songs than it needed.

Amazing platform for theater!!!

An excellent venue and institution for Black culture. Rest In Pride, Abena!
