Great space to see emerging comic talents. The venue itself lends to an underground (literally) vibe. Its got an old timey feel plus beer and wine bar. Some good laughs. The hosts and lineup were fun.

I must admit that I am a bit of a noob when it comes to live comedy, but the show I attended was GREAT! We somehow obtained two of the last tickets, but it was sold out by the time we had our beers, so Ill definitely be planning further in advance next time I go.And there will be a next time! My friend and I enjoyed our night there thoroughly, and every single comic who went on stage had at least a few hilarious jokes. Most of them had me laughing through their entire

My friend and I came here to see Evil Dead: the Musical **jazz hands**. No words to describe the fabulousness of that night. We sat in the splash zone where we got covered in stage blood. They kindly handed out ponchos for these seats. It was such an awesome experience. All the actors and workers u could tell loved their jobs. Its a small intimate theatre that I highly recommend and will definitely be returning to. Love you guys!

As long as David Zak is in charge, do not support this company.“Pride Arts inspires future generations through art to promote equality, creativity, and awareness while changing lives.”He has failed on this mission statement. His actions and words do not promote equality for all. He exploits the creativity of your community at the expense of their mental and physical health. He has not displayed any awareness of his predatory behavior or of the LGBTQ community he supposedly represents.The beautiful productions PAC has been able to pull off are a reflection of the artists working on them, not of David Zak. His behavior is a detriment to the LGBTQ community and the theater community.

Nice production of A Raisin in the Sun. Small, intimate theater. Friendly staff. The seats could be a little more comfortable..... Parking... Its the north side, but did find free street parking within 2 blocks. Would definitely return again.

I dont trust a center that asks for BIPOC artists to preform for free so they can record them and tout their diversity.

Saw Evil Dead the Musical it was gory, campy and hilarious! The seating was perfect, even if someone was very tall we could see all the action. Get there early too, first come for seating

I loved everything about it. Since Ive never been to this kind of theatre especially in Chicago. Small. Quaint,. The feel. Where. Actors and actresses are born. Not a bad seat in the house. And depending on where you are sitting. You might become part of the play

All the people were rude. The cast really tried but the lack of set change and the size of the theatre was atrocious. I felt suffocated. If you want to be eye to eye with every cast member this is for you. I must add when I went the evil dead musical also had bad costumes.BAD. like buy a mask and gloves that are childish/want to be gruesome nothing hit the mark but the actor who played Ash/Bruce Campbell.

It is a typical community style theater... In three quarters. A good venue for the performance I saw.

I loved this small intimate theater! I just saw Netflix and kill as well as short films about coming out. The films were very thought provoking and the play was entertaining and made for a fun date night! I will be back again soon!

Went to see a show here today. The talent and production value involved was at the same caliber of many professional productions I have gone to see in the suburbs and downtown- and for a fraction of the price and conviently off the El!

Small cozy and intimate. Felt like you were right in the middle of the play. Informal bar and small lobby with leather couches.

I drove here from the far west suburbs to support my best friend who was performing here. After paying $15 to park and walking 6 blocks in the freezing cold to get here; Im told that even though I bought tickets ahead of time that I dont have a seat. Offered me a refund but that doesnt give me back all I lost and the fact that I wont see my best friend performing. Worst experience ever. Would never come back after this. I hope Im the only one who will ever have to go through this.

Nice small theater! Very helpful staff! I had terrible finding parking around the area, so they waited a few minutes for me to get there before starting the show. Oh, and dont drive there, theres absolutely no parking spots in the area, not even paid parking!
