October 24, 2026 | Glendale | Friends & I are always exploring fun ways to celebrate Halloween!…read moreWe're also willing to go the distance for the experience! The Haunted Soirée at The Nocturne Theatre was our event of choice! Tickets | There are several tiers to this 21 & over event! $69-$101 each! We selected the PlatinumMeister, which allows early access, two drinks, as well as a souvenir glass to take home! The shape of the glass is so cute that it makes me giggle every time I see it! Hahaha! Wardrobe | Cocktail Attire & Halloween Costumes caught my eye, as it was a Halloween Soiree! I enjoyed combining the two! Experience | Theatrical fun, the phenomenal Arealist, including the Singers on stage! They were all incredible! The characters walking around the event had on amazing costumes, not too scary, but just scary enough! I love the glow of some of the rooms, very cool and really set the mood! A little spooky, a little funny & a whole lot of drama on stage and in different rooms of the venue! My friends ended up volunteering to be part of the performance, when no one else volunteered! Hahaha! Fun! Drinks | Munich Gimlet was definitely my drink of choice, twice! It's super light, refreshing & very tasty! Ingredients including gin, cucumber and lime juice! Decor | They went all out with the decorations! Every room was exciting and different, especially the auditorium! Notes | The small hallway to get into one of the rooms upstairs was a little too close for comfort, as noticed by others as well! I would definitely suggest putting this performance in the bigger auditorium part of the Theatre or allowing less in the room at a time! A couple of rooms were also a little warm, which others noticed as well! I recommend a fan, or some sort of air conditioning! Overall | We had a great time! I definitely recommend the event, especially if you want to experience something new for Halloween! Refreshing cocktails, amazing costumes, a chance to dress up for Halloween & theatrics included, it's a win! The event runs all the way until Halloween Night! Let's go!

Amazing Theatre here in Glendale .This theatre has been around since the early 60's !! I've seen…read morea handful of shows here and they never disappoint Last night I took my 9 year nephew to see "Frankenstein Resurrection" and once again it was spectacular! ! The costumes ~ the singing and acting are superb! Everyone here is so cool .. it's a fun community of very artistic people showing off their art ! I will also mention there is not a bad seat the house ... it's a circular .. U shaped staging .. where the audience surrounds the performance on all sides! Come one .. come all and check them out !! I'm already on their website looking for our next show!

I went to the Wilshire Ebell Theatre on Sunday to watch "Chunsa Arirang," and the performance was…read moreabsolutely fantastic. The Ebell is genuinely one of my favorite venues in all of LA. While the interior is classic and vintage, it doesn't feel worn down at all--instead, it feels elegant, timeless, and steeped in history. Even the restrooms maintain their charming vintage aesthetic while being exceptionally clean. The staff here are incredibly professional and friendly, and both the sound system and stage lighting were top-notch. On top of that, the parking lot is spacious and easy to enter and exit, and the location is super convenient. It really is an absolute gem of a theater in Los Angeles!

I've been here years ago for plays and last night I came for Katt Williams's book tour and I wasn't…read morethat satisfied. Overall 3 stars for me and my experience. I felt that the parking was hectic since it was two event goin on and they were being particular about where Katt Williams parking could be. Also, it is a very older building so inside it's very narrow and every time you get out the seat to have someone come in to sit down it could be very annoying. At this event, I'm not sure about previous our prior event, but they didn't have any snacks hardly and everything was outside, and it was only soft drinks and water that you can get before you walked in. I just feel that the place can be a little bit more modernize and better directions about where to park for different events and control the traffic better. -Marshay D.

But this is even better. $5 with the limit of 30 people. The benefit is that if there is a bad comic, it will only be a 15 minute wait for another to come along. Sort of like the bus system in Los Angeles. On the evening I attended, the comics were very good. But I had such a craving for popcorn. Explainable, these are old, bolted to the floor, theatre seating in a 30 seat "room." I can see the win-win on this. You and I get an evening of no-frills laughs, and these funny people get a studio audience. Not a bad Friday night in Los Angeles. Since it starts at 10 pm, you have time to wine and dine first, and then bring your own dessert or anti-freeze and enjoy a show. I can't promise you that you'll get a free soda, I did get one, and there were a few left over at the end of the evening. Pretty good show since they didn't have to rely on a 2 drink minimum to make the show funny. :::tap tap tap:::: This place is definitely on!

Saw "Something Spooky" last night at Dynasty Typewriter. What a great show! It was funny, spooky…read moreand above all fun! If you can catch this show, don't miss it! The theater is a hollywood legend. Its over 100 years old and features lots of experimental theater and celebrity one person shows. Their snack counter is unparalleled! They have it all! Highly recommend!

Dynasty Typewriter hosts a variety of live show types from comedy stand up to podcast tapings to…read moresmall concerts. The building is old school opened in 1926 as a Vaudeville house so it's always been entertaining. It's had different iterations over the years, most recently the Hayworth Theatre. Then in 2018 it officially became Dynasty Typerwriter Now the theater is in Westlake, right next to MacArthur Park where many of Los Angeles' unhomed population lives. So yes you can search and find street parking, but if you have a nicer car it may be better to just not risk it and park in the nearby parking garage - 611 S Carondelet Street. Rideshare is ideal though. It's a small theater (200 seats) so if you are hoping for a close up seat to see better or get in on some crowd work, you should arrive when doors open. I am quite the opposite and enjoy a good view, but sitting far outside of the crowd-work arena! Give me a good seat on the side back a few rows and I'm happy. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE crowdwork, just not aimed at me. I've seen Tig Notaro and Marc Maron here - obviously both great shows and I enjoyed them! When you sit in the seat, prepare for a little trip. They glide! haha It's kind of weird but kind of fun that they slide a bit but I see it shocking everyone when they first sit down so prepare yourself. They are the kind of seats that start hurting after sitting for an hour so my fellow ADHD peoples, prepare to do a lot of shifting in your seat. They have good canned beer options, including a couple of NA which is nice. Also full concession stand for snacks, including their special popcorn. Staff is friendly and I always enjoy this venue! I will absolutely be back.

The Theater: Kind of outdated theater. The furniture and the stage are old. Very small theater,…read moreevery seat is good seat, not necessary to pay extra for the "VIP" seats (front row). Photos of the casts are displayed in the lobby area. There is a small concession, selling drinks and snacks. The Show: Found the deal on Goldstar.com for the show "Marilyn - The Secret". Friday night show, about 20% of the theater is filled. The production is so so. 4 casts in the show. Informative about Marilyn's private life. The Parking: Private lot (but limited space) and Parking Structure (right across street)

Thus far I've only visited the MACHA theater for a single show, Game of Thrones: The Musical. It…read morewas a great show, very funny, and a lot of fun. I only wish it were longer :D The theater is a tad musty, but I do like the old style it is in. The chairs are a little worn, but you're not coming here for the Academy Awards. My other gripe are the bathrooms, which I wish they had more of. They currently just have 2, and when intermission hits a long line forms for the pair. Parking is a drag, because their lot is relatively small, but if you can snag a spot like I did, you're in luck! There is also a parking structure across the street if you need it.

From 6pm to 6am, they charge an $18 fee. The main issue with this parking garage is that it took us about 35 minutes to exit. I have been seated in the balcony and the floor. Both have good views of the stage. The bathrooms are a decent size and always clean.

Been waiting all year to attend my first ever Bob Baker Day and it finally came around this past…read moreSunday after being post-poned for a few months due to bad weather. Unfortunately, not even the puppet master has pull when it comes to controlling the weather. Tomato, tomato!! :'( The park was absolutely oozing chaotic, whimsical energy with puppets galore, vibrant costumes afoot, and every possible themed variation of clown that you could think of. I'm not them joking -- if you can imagine it, someone definitely DIYed it. I was in awe of all the creative outfits I saw because it reminded me of my music festival and raver days where I used to spend weeks making my own "outfits" if you can even call it that, hahahaha. It's nice seeing art represented in fashion and these folks were not clownin' around with their steeze! This was an incredibly delightful way to spend a Sunday funday at the LA State Historic Park. We took public transit over (shout-out LA Metro) and were able to catch the second half of the event. During that 2.5 hour window, we covered a pretty substantial amount of activities such as watching a Cirque School show, watching a Bob Baker Marionette Theater show, visiting various vendor booths, eating a picnic lunch, and watching as madness unfolded while the annual traditional pie fight erupted to close out the day's festivities! The free marionette show was probably the biggest highlight for my Bob Baker Day! There is something about watching puppetry and performers in an open air park that makes you feel like you stumbled into a fever dream. I even saw a few flower puppets that reminded me of the talking flowers from the garden in Alice in Wonderland! I feel like I went into this event expecting it to be an actual carnival with rides, cotton candy, and all the works, but it was actually more of a chill and family-friendly educational event. The main feedback I have is probably around event accessibility. I'm not really sure why the event was hosted so deep inside of the park versus closer to the entrance. We legit had to walk pretty far to get to the actual set-up and I feel like that would fatigue a lot of attendees, not even just the elderly guests. It was also pretty windy and dusty still, so I wish I knew to pack a scarf or bandana to protect myself from the debris being kicked up in the park. The majority of hydration stations also ran out of water well before the halfway point of the event, so that wasn't too great. Despite this, I still had a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to checking out next year's event and hopefully being able to join for a larger chunk of the festivities in the future!

They also offer ice cream after the show. If your child sits in the front they get a chance to see the puppets up close. There is street/residential parking. I love that there is a park across the street so I took her there before the show. The music and puppets were very intriguing.

But once you get closer, you can see there is a water pond upon entrance. Inside it was long and spacious with show customs displace and couches.

Really enjoy the space, the theater, the warm and welcoming staff.
