This is the most goth place I have ever been. The vibe is really on point with smoke and people dressed as ghosts. It is cash only so keep that in minfld. There is a US bank in walking distance. The people who work there are deticated to the place and it shows. I saw three bands and a spoken word poet. I highly recommend.
Halloween night was pretty fun here. Small space, but the vibe is great. The performers were delightful and had a good goth night of dancing. Plus tasty absinthe drinks!
This is an awesome small space that does a little of everything. Follow them on FB to see upcoming events and to RSVP. Bar is cash only and it is an artist space run by artists. Definitely worth checking out some of the weird and unique things coming out of here.
Great place to rehearse for underground performance arts!
Saw Monica Richards here and loved it. A smaller space but a nice crowd and artisan cocktails.
Amazing little venue with delicious drinks, great performers, and excellent hosts/staff who volunteer to make it all possible. Everything is cash only so come prepared and tip well if possible to help these guys continue putting on great events! We had so much fun and cant wait for the next #Nightcarnival!
Nice place to watch certain dance performances
Theres nowhere in Portland (or on Earth) like Steep and Thorny. Such a wondrous, imaginative, welcoming, magical space, run by generous, intelligent, visionary, intensely creative humans who possess more integrity and heart than most people Ive ever met. So much love for this venue.
This is Portlands best kept secret treasure.
One of the bright spots in the Portland underground art scene. The genuine article, a bohemian gem hidden among the bridges and warehouses of the eastside industrial district. Beautiful, intimate, heartfelt performances on stage, an audience of costumed misfits and mad artists, a cocktail bar with an ever-changing menu... I cant recommend it enough. Theres still room for you on the dance floor. Come join the fun.
Small venue but great for seeing the underground scene. Lots of performing talent and yummy cocktails.
A inclusive space of creativity and art. They put on quality shows of high caliber. They are involved with and support the local community. The place is intimate and comfortable and the drinks are just as interesting and good as the shows.
You have to see a play here if you are at all interested in the cultural offerings of Portland. Regardless of your interest in theater, if you are wondering how Portland was before it was cool, if youre claiming to have moved here for the culture, or if you just need something to do tonight - go to this theater company. Pro tip, arrive early to get a good seat.
I had such a great time here! The staff are open and friendly and the performers put on some jaw dropping acts. Venue is intimate, drinks delicious.
The owners work hard to bring Portland something interesting. And Ive always liked the special cocktails. Theyre creative and thematic. I have no idea whats wrong with that previous haters taste buds.
This is a very cool intimate venue. We stumbled upon a show there on Facebook and checked it out. You definitely feel like you found a hidden little secret when you walk through the doors.
A truly unique venue tucked away in the best city. I’ve never had a bad time at an event here and wish I could go to all of them!
A wonderfully curated space with entirely unique and inspiring events. A dark yet inviting atmosphere. Excellent cocktails.
This is one of the gems of the Portland arts scene. The plays, parties, performances, and variety shows here are one-of-a-kind, and you won’t find kinder, more dedicated management anywhere. Plus, the drinks are often clever and always good.
I always love the shows and gatherings here! Truly a showcase for Portland arts.
A wonderfully intimate space chock full of character. Tucked away in the SE industrial district, this a great place to have a drink and enjoy a truly unique experience.
Amazing venue doing the good work of making great art available to us. If youre choosing where to go, you want to spend your time and money here - its super fun, and its also the kind of place we need to make an effort to keep around.
Super cool and intimate setting.
Hauntingly beautiful venue hosting diverse avant-garde acts: music, movement artists, contemporary vaudeville, etc., as well as absolutely innovative and engrossing theater. I loved, loved, loved their Halloween carnival. Open, safe, and respectful space, too.
Amazing venue, great people, unbelievably enjoyable performance. Drove all the way from Seattle just to see the show, not disappointed.
Great drinks, wonderful atmosphere; this is a space dedicated to making art of all kinds, and a space full of the bravery needed to put that dedication into action.
Avant garde underground theater.
An amazing place with dedicated actors and top notch artistic leadership.
Overpriced, cash only drinks and you could only pick from a half dozen gross house specials. Tiny room, no seating, and while I have no problems with the sexual nature of the performances, they were disappointingly lacking that sexy diversity that I, personally, crave. Typical white male dom and white, skinny submissive girl. Maybe their other performances are less boring and bland, but I was hoping for something a little spicier. At once trying too hard and not enough. No one working the crowd to bring up the atmosphere, awkward, jerking it in the corner vibe. Not a friendly, open environment at all. Very disappointed that I spent so much on a ticket for so lackluster an experience. Its just a grimy hole in the wall for mining money from horny drunks.
Underground goth scene. Cash only bar. Standing room only. Good people!
I saw a string of live art performances here and they were top notch for a warehouse Halloween party.
Intimate venue with unique shows, support local artists!
Really unique and awesome place for immersive theatre, late-nite dancing and performances, and some of the truest heart-spilling Ive ever seen. A portland treasure!
Intimate venue with a lot of heart. when you come here, you can tell you are part of something bigger than yourself.
Authentic, intimate, haven of underground and darker arts of all sorts.
A golden hole in the wall for unusual, different, bizarre, awesome theater and social events
Fun show!
Great people, amazing live performances, cool space.
Beautifully decorated, lovingly curated and cared for.
Very interesting venue with really cool performances
Death
Hard knock life
Very enjoyable!
