Torch Song Venue

Firstly, the venue is located just off 8th Avenue and the train stations were nearby, thus allowing us to reach the theatre easily. The building entrance is street level, and the theatre is located on the second floor, accessible by stairs or elevator. Upon entering the theatre, I realized that the box office was a repurposed bank vault and that there were old safes throughout the first floor. This caused the lovely, intimate theatre to have a great ambience. The restrooms, concessions and lobby were all located on the same level as the theatre. The stage was extremely tiny but it could still be seen clearly. It was decorated very nicely and was aesthetically pleasing. The seats were reasonably comfortable, the sound system was very effective and the staff were very pleasant. I loved how when the play started, the curtains on the windows closed as the lights were dimmed. Although the venue was not very fancy, it was still very quaint.
