Hidden gem tucked away from the Usher Hall - we eill look oit for future shows and hopefully be back soon.

High caliber drama caught 3 plays all worth a look. The bright future is coming, Nowhere and the absolutely stunning Consumer.

Had an excellent dinner in restaurant prior to show. Theatre is compact with good seats everywhere but not the most comfortable. Show was very entertaining with great acting.
