" RDC team- i just wanted to drop a quick note to say that this years' recital was truly so so special. i volunteered backstage last year so this was my first experience in the audience. my own daughter danced only twice, near the end (i exploded inside), even still i was all but weeping the entire show. the energy that everyone brought was beyond beautiful. the joy was palpable, & it was very apparent that everybody on that stage was truly in their magic, from the teachers to students. which, as a patron, was to say the very least, is uplifting & impressive. as the mother of a dancer who is quite dedicated & passionate about the art, it was exciting & encouraging witnessing the progression through classes, & hear the graduates' testimonials. i was blown away at the level of dedicated production you brought to the entire event. 'sign of the times' had me so emotional. you deserve all your flowers!"

After our party, all we heard was "EPIC" - and a large margin of that was EKP!

They were all super easy to work with and if I ever have the opportunity to do so again it would be a pleasure. I would definitely recommend your theater to others should anyone ask me for a great place to put on a show. Beautiful theater, great stage and back of house amenities. The dressing rooms are some of the nicest I've experienced in 30 + years of events. Great Green Room. Tech, set up & tear down were efficient and quick. And multiple restrooms for back of house use!

Very relatable. Love me some train action. Didn't love the borrowed Catholic HS theater, but it'll do in a pinch. Enjoyed another fun play this past summer performed outdoors in a beautiful botanical garden on a warm evening sharing a picnic. That production, The Guardsman, was definitely entertaining & enjoyable, but less professionally polished, in a word, silly. For sure do recommend BAT in general for affordable, engaging productions. A plus that it's in the SW neighborhood!

I love the fact that just down the street you can go to a live show in a theater house that has that "this building has some stories it could tell' kinda smell to it. If you keep an eye out for them they often do a dinner and a show special with a neighborhood restaurant and you can get a really good deal for a date night.

Such an awesome evening!!…read more I had be looking for something different to do and realized it's been forever since I've gone to a play. I went to all of the local theaters and found that Accomplice by Rupert Holmes sounded delightfully entertaining! Getting tickets was super easy through Renton Civic's website and they gave me multiple ways to retrieving my tickets. I was happy to see the bar! AND you're allowed to take your goodies into the theater with you! This was an extra bonus because they've decided that masks are still required. Theater itself is super small and pretty retro, but it was well maintained and clean. Bathrooms are upstairs and the ladies room only had 2 stalls with one sink, so if you don't get there early you're probably not going before intermission is over! Overall a really great way to spend an evening; I know I'm looking forward to going to another show!

Way over due for another review, however, its been that long since my last visit when I originally…read morereviewed =D I'm happy to report my visit this summer 2019 was an improvement. My friend and I visited on a weekend afternoon amongst a fairly large crowd... I'm glad we purchased our tkts in advance, although, I heard while waiting to get in there were tkts available at the boxoffice. The big selling point for me continues to be its local community theater, good entertainment with variety of ages and interests catering to their audience and a pleasant surprise REMODELING! I enjoyed the sprucing up features to the theater especially the seats I'll be back and bringing more of my peeps!

Ok this place is super cool. I can't believe I only found out about this venue recently!…read more To get to the theater, you go around the corner from the bar entrance and through this back alleyway door. It feels very covert, like you need to know a guy who knows a guy with a password to get in. You can also enter through the bar (I think). We initially went through the side door to get our tickets scanned in and then went in and out of the bar between acts to grab a drink. We weren't able to bring drinks into the actual theater, but not a huge deal. If anything, keeps the venue cleaner. There aren't any seats, just tiered standing platforms. Honestly, even with it being packed, I felt like we had a pretty good view of ~80% of the stage. The one thing I will say is that with everyone standing, you would think there'd be more movement/dancing. But alas, this is still Seattle and most people were bopping their heads to the music while I just wanted to swing around and feel it in my soul.

There is available street parking however it can be tricky and limited due to the narrow streets. The theater shares an entrance with a jazz bar which provides a comfortable seating area to enjoy a drink while waiting for a show. We came to see the Rocky Horror Burlesque Pastie Show and was impressed at the capacity of this small theater. Beyond the hallway, patrons are immediately welcomed to second bar and a sea of padded chairs. The theater was packed with Rocky Horror Picture fans with some proudly wearing costumes of their favorite characters. The show started a little later than advertised however we were kept entertained during the slight delay. The seats were comfortable and we had an unobstructed view of the stage. This was our first time seeing a Rocky Horror Show in burlesque and we didn't know what to expect. Audience participation was encouraged and specific names (which I will not repeat) were yelled out when either Brad or Janet took the stage. Overall, a wonderful group adventure night full of sing-a-longs, heckling, and cocktails. Drink prices and show tickets were cheap compared to other venues.

The space isn't overly large, but that actually works in its favor--it comfortably fits a good-sized audience while still feeling intimate, which makes performances more engaging. One of the things we liked most is the setting. It's located right in front of a park and open lawn, which makes it easy to turn the evening into more of an experience. You could easily do a picnic outside and then head in for a show. We came here to see Ablaye Cissoko & Cyrille Brotto, and the venue really complemented the performance. It's one of those places where the environment adds to the overall experience. Definitely worth checking out if you're attending an event here.
