    Main stage

    One of the best venues I have ever been to. The drinks were great, service was quick. You're able to order from a QR code on your chair which makes the process very simple. Great spot for a date night to get some laughs. Easy parking and just a solid spot over all.

    I went to a show here and really enjoyed it! The space feels intimate, and they made it easy to order food and drinks and pay on a smartphone without the show being disrupted. Their drinks are reasonably priced (at least compared to what I'm used to with comedy clubs in Phoenix) and some came out surprisingly strong. The night we were supposed to be here, the original headliner backed out last minute, and I was impressed about how the venue made it right. They pulled together a new act that was great and also credited back the full cost of the tickets. Our group looks forward to returning for a new show!

    Not a bad seat in the venue!

    I love coming here. I end up thinking every time I go is the best set I've seen. You are sure to get a ton of laughs! The feel inside the club is not what you expect at first, but definitely cozy and clean. The service for the drink menu is VERY fast! There isn't food served there, but they have little bags of chips or you can bring food in from the outside. The Comedy Fort is one of the top spots in Fort Collins to check out!

    I'm not sure why comedians seem to enjoy hole-in-the-wall places but this is just that. It's not a real theater space. It's a backroom with a stage. If you get there early and are in the first two rows you'll get a cushy, comfortable chair. Otherwise you will be seated in some sturdy, basic, nom-ergonomically sound stacking chairs. So if you have a big booty or long legs, GET THERE EARLY. It's kinda dank... there are kegs just on the floor in the hallway and other boxes to the 'theater'. Kind gives, strange neighbors basement vibes. Their drink ordering process works excellent! You scan a QR code at your seat and they bring them out to you. Service is quick, too. We had two espresso martinis, a peach Bellini, a Bloody Mary, and an old fashioned. Everything was pretty good. I will say they get talent in here!! We drove up from Denver to see Kelsey Cook. She's very funny! Great delivery and timing. Check out her YouTube Special. The openers were great too.

    Awesome Seating

    What a gem! I am so excited to have the addition of this business in Fort Collins. I purchased my ticket online, which was very easy and was even able to use a discount code since I'm on the mailing list. I arrived about a half hour early in order to get a good seat. They suggest 15 minutes early. They then seat you with your group, so make sure that everyone in your group is with you when you arrive. Once seated, you have the option to order drinks via QR code at your seat. I did have an issue with my phone not picking up the QR code, as did others around me. This would be my only complaint about the whole experience. However, you can simply order from a waitress walking around, or go to the bar directly, so this is not a deal breaker. The seats were comfortable and the visibility was great. I am only 5'2", so sometimes seeing the stage can be a challenge. Here, I was in the second row back from the stage and had no issues with visibility since the stage sits high enough. Also, there are little tables with cup holders next to every chair. This is such a luxury. They clearly put a great deal of thought into how they planned and laid out the seating and tables to maximize space AND comfort.

    The comedy fort never disappoints! I love how you can order drinks on your phone continuously throughout the night and not worry about disturbing anyone or the show. The burlesque event was amazing! It is being moved from the first Friday of each month to the 4th Saturday of each month. If you haven't made a chance to check out a comedy show or a burlesque show, you're missing out on a great time! BURLESQUE!!

    The atmosphere was dimly, romantically lit, and you could just feel the energy in the room knowing you were about to get a hell of a laugh.

    I will give a 5 based on past experiences. Went to see a show today and honestly the level they…read moreare operating at seems a bit ridiculous. The facility is of course beautiful and they offer wonderful shows there. Or do when they are not shut down. This was the first show i have been to post covid. They have the first 6 rows blocked off so no one can sit in those. And then you have a row that people can sit in and then 3 rows skipped and then another row people can sit in. Basically looks like around 100 to 120 people can attend a production. So we can pack people in on planes like sardines. But 100 people can go to somewhere that generally seats 1500??? I get some spacing would be okay but honestly that was ridiculous. I know I will probably get some angry people with my thought on that. But that is how it is. My husband travels for work and is constantly on planes with people sitting shoulder to shoulder and people in every single seat. Yet in this HUGE venue they can have maybe 10% of their capacity???? Also you will be required to wear your mask the entire time. And there is staggered seating times based on where you are so pay attention to your email so you arrive at the right time. You are not allowed to wait inside, you have to wait outside until your time to enter and sit down. There were no actual programs given out just a online program so if you dont want to look at your phone, dont bring your phone or dont have a QR scanner that works well then you have no way to see the program. My husband who is 6 foot tall knees were banging on the back of the seat in front of him but guess it doesn't matter since no one was allowed to sit there. Anyhow. there it is. I have been to many a wonderful production there however. Hopefully this wont be the case forever because for me its a turn off. I am glad that they get to be open though and hopefully it will only get better from here.

    I'v been to the MAC a few times in the past and have really enjoyed it, but this time it just…read morewasn't good, and I don't think I will be back. My dinner was cold by the time it got to me. There was a skimpy portion of thin and fatty odds and ends of ham, some coagulated super garlicky mashed potatoes with no butter or gravy, and steamed green beans which were flavorless and completely unadorned. The seating was incredibly cramped, and I did not enjoy sharing a table with complete strangers. There was an air conditioning vent blowing directly down onto me, and the wall behind me was filthy with dust bunnies and lint. By the end of the show several people in my general vicinity started displaying signs of irritability due to the tight quarters. The show I saw was A Christmas Story, and while the classic movie translated to the stage better than I thought it would, I felt there were a few elements that should have been excluded - such as the racism in the Chinese restaurant scene, the sexism in just about every scene with women in it, the portrayal of smoking, and the overacting (even for a community theater production where part of the appeal is the campiness) that I honestly don't remember being present in previous shows I have been to. One last thing - if you are going to do a show that features a firearm (even an unloaded BB gun) for f*ck's sake please educate your actors on proper handling. The barrel of anything (even an unloaded BB gun) pointed in my direction is gut twistingly uncomfortable.

    I saw Shrek the Musical here two years ago, and saw Oklahoma today. The food here is pretty good…read more I've had the pork shank twice, and it does not disappoint! The mashed sweet potatoes are heavenly! The dessert was okay; store-bought raspberry cheesecake. The show was pretty good too. There were some missteps in some of the dance numbers (near drop, near fall into orchestra pit), and a couple of wardrobe malfunctions (ripped pants, ripped hemline), but otherwise the show was very enjoyable. Now the question is: are these servers who act, or actors who serve? Because they do both very well!
