Absolutely delightful and intimate Blackbox theatre where you see and hear everything. Plenty of parking everywhere. The lobby boasts couches to sit on and wait, snacks to buy, and a certain feeling of being in a real hip theater.
Cool place. I saw the absolutely hilarious “Thank You For Being a Friend”, the Golden Girls parody. Enjoyed every moment of it, and I’m so glad I made it a part of my vacation.
Went to see THANK YOU FOR BEING A FRIEND with my husband and two friends and we all had a great time! Show was smart, funny, and very entertaining! A big THANK YOU to David at Empire Stage for being so accommodating with our last-minute tickets and for putting together shows we all want to see. Can’t wait for the next one!
This place was FABULOUS! We saw “The Golden Girls, thank u for being a friend” best and funniest show we ever saw. Owner could not have been nicer. We will definitely be back! Also location is terrific, so close to great restaurants, etc
