Every event I attend here, and have performed here, are always great. Its the perfect size.
Such a a great place to discover new theater!
Small, intimate setting without feeling crushed. No parking, but I love the fact that theres an all gender restroom.
I saw Measure for Measure there. Kind of small, but very intimate with the actors. Workers were nice. Bathrooms were clean. And it seems to draw in a classy crowd. Everyone was quiet during the acting...and not one cell phone rang!
Great theater to watch local talent. The plays Ive seen there have never disappointed me.
I enjoyed the play, and the players, and the fact that it was a church before!
Took a group to see the Little Foxesfox. Was very pleased with the size of the venue. Small intimate up close with the actors. The show was well produced and directed. Costumes were on point. Staging was excellent. A very enjoyable evening.
I love the local works of arr presented here.
Thank you Peter and Shannon for your constant and considerable support of the arts and the community at large. You two are very much appreciated!!!
The theatre seats was amazing, and so comfortable! Great customer service was too good!
Great space.
Interesting performance space, very intimate seats maybe 100 with comfortable seating going up stadium style. Have seen lots of interesting plays here some actors are more professional than others. Its a cross between community and professional theater
Good place to see an awesome Actors Bridge Ensemble play!
A grrrreat place for local talent & inovatitive theater. A Nashville treasure. Goooo
I do believe its mildly haunted. I love the history of the place. Hopefully it will stay and not get gentrified
Professional people and a great show. Would love to see more productions here.
My wife and I saw a production of the Henrik Ibsen play Hedda Gabler. The theater is converted from what used to be a Presbyterian church. From what we could tell, there are actually two venues here. The play we saw was played out in a large room on the main floor, probably where the congregation would have gathered when it was a church. As we entered by the side door, we could see stairs going up to a second floor and could hear a production going on rather loudly upstairs, and we were concerned that the sound from the other play would intrude on the play we were seeing. However, once seated and watching the play, it became apparent that the two venues were adequately soundproofed, as we heard no more from the other production.This is clearly a venue for amateur productions. There is no stage, no wings, no curtain, no place to hang backdrops nor any fixed seating. It is essentially a large almost empty room. The play is acted out in the middle of the room among whatever set decorations, furniture or props are arranged. For our play, which occurs mostly in the living room of a large house, the only set decorations were a couch with some pillows and an upright piano. At the back of the room was the sound and lighting equipment, with the sound and lighting engineer sitting at a table off to the side in front of a laptop to trigger the various light and sound effects as needed. The chairs for the audience were arranged three rows deep on two sides of the room, seating maybe 60 people. The audience was essentially on the same level as the actors, and the chairs in the front row were only inches away from the back of the couch. An audience member seated there could have easily reached out and touched the actors on the couch, giving the arrangement an intimate if somewhat unusual feel.As there is no stage nor any wings, the actors had to exit the stage using the doors to the room, one of which actually opened to the outside. The set was comprised almost entirely of the couch, pillows, and piano. There was no curtain, so any set change, such as moving the couch and piano to different locations in the room, essentially giving the audience another camera angle, occurred in full view of the audience and the furniture moving was accomplished hurriedly by the principal actors themselves for minimal interruption of the action.Given the sparseness and primitive nature of the venue, its the actors and actresses who really need to carry the full weight of the performance, with only minimal help from the set, props, costumes, lighting and effects. Even with the limitations of the venue, the actors were still able to give an enjoyable performance to the audience, and the audience got to experience some very raw, intimate theater that was almost pure performance. If you wanted a lavish or elaborate production, youll be very disappointed. But if you go in with the right set of expectations and can appreciate a minimalist production thats carried almost entirely by the acting, youll probably have a good evening.
Its a small theater house, but the productions that Ive seen (3 plays) there have been AMAZING!!!!! Great performances and content.
Last night, wednesday, three shorts were well worth experiencing. The three writers and directors plus their actors created a very enjoyable evening.
Very nice! The READ was Outstanding!
Go to the bathroom before you see a show. The restroom is difficult to get to.
Great productions and I love the old architecture of the space!
