My daughter and I attended Puffs at the Know Theatre. This theater is a gem! We enjoyed it so much. It is intimate and cozy. Not a bad seat in the house. Everyone was so nice. We loved the play and the actors were phenomenal. We will definitely be back.

Saw “Ada and the Engine” Saturday March 21, 2018. It was a wonderful cast! Great cozy theatre and the bar scene on the first floor was comfy and really brings you into the mood for some theatre. The tickets wee punch cards given to us at will call from buying online, very hip and cool, but not in the overly hipster kind of way.As a lover of the theatre and a high school thespian, it was great getting in touch with the arts here in Cincinnati.Perfect place to “Play”

There is literally always a production happening here. If its not a mainstage production, its an Underground production, or a festival, Serial, special event, special guest. They also over a Welcome Wednesday experience every Wednesday of their mainstage shows where a set number of walkup tickets are free and reserved are only $5. Well worth trying out to see a show youve never heard of.

I attended the Know to see a Live Podcast “History Dweebs” even though it’s downtown there is close and accessible parking. The facility has a bar and clean bathrooms.

Quaint little theater! Sits 100 in the theater with a bar and small stage for live music in the lower level. The play I attended The Puffs was a hilarious tongue in cheek Harry Potter-esk fan fiction. If all their original works are like this, i would be interested in attending more often.

This is a great little internment theater. You get to be up close from all seats and the shows are very well produced with some great performers bringing these stories to life on stage . I highly recommend attending a show here

Know Theatre located in heart of OTR. Perfect place to go watch a play or performance. Theres a bar and seating area separate from the theatre area.

Im a late convert to local, indie theater, but I have loved the productions that Ive seen at or produced by the Know Theatre. They are inventive, hilarious, and full of heart. I highly recommend experiencing it yourself.

I went to see Puffs on its second to last night. It was very enjoyable and humorous. I enjoyed a butterbeer at the bar to go along with the theme. Would go again for another show.

Ive been coming here for the past year and a half and the atmosphere and programs are great! The main stage shows are good, but the special events like the Fringe Festival in the beginning of June and the One Minute Play Festival in the beginning of August are amazingly interesting.

It was amazing and very fun. Not only is it beautifully decorated but they perform great shows. The only complaint is that it is a little humid inside

I love that after leaving the show, I was immediately in a cozy bar. Itd be a great place to debrief and chat with other patrons about the show

The Know Theatre Fringe Festival is a fantastic event with theatrical happenings for all ages and tastes. I highly recommend going to the Fringe. Youll be surprised, delighted and glad you did.

Great little theater in one of Cincinnatis hottest neighborhoods (lots of options for dinner & drinks before or after the shows). They offer more cutting edge shows than some of the other neighborhood theaters, which means the shows can sometimes be a little hit or miss. Regardless, though, its pretty much always worth the experience. Tickets are considerably cheaper than the bigger theaters around, which makes it worth the gamble.

Home of the Cincinnati Fringe Festival and other also plays throughout the year. I have now been to 2 plays and 6 shows during the Fringe. Always have been well done shows, that are quirky. I also did New years eve party it was a very good balance of entertainment and fun with the music not so loud that you cant still talk. They offer nights that you can see shows for free if you cant afford to pay and they also offer for you to pay more if you can afford to do so also. They truly have a good feel for making theater a part of the community. Overall I wish Cincinnati had more places like this and a bigger theater community. This place is definitely a good start and is doing a fine job of doing everything I have seen them do so far.

Really loved the atmosphere! It really feels like an urban Theatre in the middle of this really up-and-coming area. They have a bar if youre looking to get a drink, but I would avoid it if youre actually going to see a performance. I went to see Calculus the Musical, and they did a great job (well worth the 15 dollar price of admission).

We attend the Fringe Festival every year. Lots of talentented people and inovative performance art. You never know what to expect, some shows are fantastic, some are bizarre. Always a memorable experience.

The Know Theatre of Cincinnati is a great venue for live theatre and other fun events in the OTR. The main theatre is upstairs. It is assessable by elevator for those that need it. The theatre space is very adaptable making it a place to see very unique & creative productions at a very reasonable price. It is at the bar area where there is a small stage and there are constantly fun and interesting activities. Every year they put on the Cincinnati Fringe Festival at the end of May with show venues all over the OTR. #knowtheatrecincy
