Stageworks Theatre

This review is not so much about the theater as about the performance we saw at the theater called «Got Jokes?» The theater itself is small and cute. I found it was easy to find and first two hours of parking was free in the same building. Just follow the signs.
The show was disappointing. The comedians were very immature and inexperienced, to say the least. Some acts were funny, while others didn’t even make me smile. The sound system wasn’t in place and at times you couldn’t hear what was said. Disappointing experience.

Hard to find, It wasn’t clearly marked, but once inside, I was pleased! The lobby bar was neatly stocked, the restrooms were clean and well appointed.
The theatre itself is intimate. Cozy even. And as another poster pointed out, the way it’s set up, if you need a potty break, just wait for the break. otherwise you are pretty much up on the stage with the actors and invading their space.
We truly enjoyed the show we saw — a WIT IMPROV production — which was a fundraiser for our friend Billy Edwards. The best part of the night was Scott & Billy getting down to their underwear and walking blindfolded through a minefield of mouse traps all for the laughs of those who watched. Truly a bunch of masochistic souls — who do anything for a laugh!

Building & staff…
I came here to see A Raisin in the Sun. The production was amazing, from costume to actors. The actual theatre is very cozy, and despite how small the space was, the set was nicely done. The bartender and ushers were very nice.
One warning about the theatre is that there’s no way you can get a potty break. I suppose you could, but it’d be extraordinarily awkward. Just wait till the break.
The drinks & snacks…
They serve wine, water, and soda. Of course, it’s overpriced. There’s also snacks to be had like crackers and such.
Overall, I loved this theatre. It wasn’t what I thought it would be, but it was pretty awesome.

Of Mice and Men:
I am no proffesional critique on plays or the things involved in the production however I have always been fond of the craft in theater. I have seen a few different live plays before but I can say this one has been by far the most memorable. The stageworks theater is quaint and sets an intimate tone between the actors and the audience. In addition to the nearness of the cast, the acting alone was exceptional. The change of scenes was smooth almost undetectable. The props and effects were incredibly realistic and fitting.
They also have wine, soda and snacks available before the show and during intermission. Students rates are offered as well as discounted parking passes with ticket.
I will definitely be returning for more shows in the future and continue recommending the venue for something different to do locally.

I came here to see the Colored Museum and was ushered in by the nicest people ever! I arrived early was happy to see all the different people there who enjoyed the same interest of live theatre as I did. The play began and it was jaw dropping from start to finish. The talent Stageworks brought out was beyond words and I was very impressed with the way they handled all of the props and extras. It is a cozy little theatre that will suck you into the performance no matter what the play is. I enjoyed myself very much so and intend to go back as many times as possible.

So glad this place opened at Grand Central. It’s a small theater but good quality shows, it can easily compare to some of the small plays at the Straz. They offer a flex pass similar to a season ticket as well as per event with convenient parking at Grand Central with a $ 3 validation. I would recommend ordering online to make sure you get a seat. Looking forward to «How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents» in June.

Just saw Biloxi Blues at Stageworks. Fantastic performances and space!
