    I love this place! So beautiful on the inside. Some great productions. Dress in layers, it's usually quite cold also.

    Great venue! They use a lot of local talent which Seattle has some very talented performers living here. Their productions are top notch. Go see a show!

    There’s a bar on every level so don’t wait at the main level one like a chump. Lines are shorter upstairs. There’s also multiple restrooms. Pick the shortest line.

    Second Sunday is "Talkback" with the cast after the show. Stay after and ask questions of the actors, musicians, stage crew, and producers.

    Head upstairs at Intermission - bigger bathroom facilities and fewer people in line.

    Ladies, don't bother lining up at the restrooms near the entrance while getting in everyone's way when there are tons of stalls upstairs.

    Do not come here if you have a fear of dragons. Otherwise, it's an awesome place to see a show!

    The restrooms upstairs have WAY more capacity and there's a far shorter line as a result.
