What a great space! I went to see a family friend perform a holiday improv and sketch comedy called "The Show" at the Alchemist Theatre last night, and heard toward the end of the night that this week was actually the rental theatre's debut.
Entering the lobby, there's a cute bar and small cafe area. We arrived straight after dinner and a few drinks, but I can imagine that eventually, this place will attract groups of friends to hang out and chat before and after their shows. The dimly lit seating was very inviting.
The theatre space itself is small, intimate, and dare I say, unique in Milwaukee. At least I have never been in a theatre like this here. The seats are ridiculously comfortable, and the stadium seating allows for a good view even toward the back of the narrow theatre.
I hope I have reason to return in the future - truly a unique entertainment experience!
And, if you read this today, you should go see "The Show" this weekend - it's hilarious!!!
