Dont know how this got posted as 4 stars instead of 5. Had a great time at a show here! The atmosphere was wonderful, the people were great, and the whole place was amazing!

This is a really pleasant theater to attend in the audience and as a performer. They always have amazing events going so I frequently find myself here several times a month. I highly recommend the drag and burlesque shows!

This is a shot of the comedy (smallest) section. There was a big dance hall where we square danced, as well as a bar/stage where we watched live music after. Welcoming staff and divey feel

Great venue for comedy, music and more! Theres always something going on there. They also have a stand up Comedy club in the back called The Independent. Also the Ghost Light next door is great for karaoke on Thursdays!

Great place to see scripted shows, improv, and stand up comedy. Its down to earth and supports a lot of local talent. The classes they offer are fun and educational too.

The comedy show was awesome. The crowd that came to the show was awesome. All around great venue.

A variety of entertainment from music to comedy to burlesque to scripted shows. The attached Ghost Light bar makes drinks before or after the show easy. Cool, laid back vibe. This is what all the cool, hipster joints are trying to be. Only its real.

Friendly people, great drinks and very talented acts. Also check out the black box across the street for scripted shows & improv, the bar next door (Ghost Light) and the stand-up club (Independent Comedy Club). You can spend your entire day & night at all 4 for a very decent price

Went to a square dance here. The venue is great, but the front door was surrounded by people smoking the whole time, so it was hard to enter and exit without smelling like cigarettes.

Review №24

Cool concept, poorly executed. Slowest bartenders I have ever seen. Good selection and everybody was friendly but still weird.

Review №25

Attended a comedy show. Was small setting but enjoyed it. Next door was a bar but was too small to house this battle of the bands thing going on

Planet Ant is wonderful. I love their support of the arts scene in Detroit and how encouraging and supportive they are of the entertainment industry. Their shows are great, they work hard to keep the professional theater business in Detroit alive!

The most unique place Ive found in the world. The energy, the people...... If youre not willing to embrace being your true self you shouldnt feel here

Went for Packzi Day to catch the music and festivities. Food was great ( vendor),music great, beer cold and waitress great, What stops me from giving more stars is the lack of decent bathrooms and the dirty ceilings with hanging wires- what is up with that ?

Review №32

A really awesome spot to see any sort of show. Professional sound system in both the main hall and the bar stage, on site bar and food, friendly staff and gender neutral bathrooms. Only complaint is parking can fill up fast in both the small lots and on the street but its free so thats the trade off.

This beautiful place is a second home for those who love to laugh as well as sing and dance. The talent here is priceless and the people of Planet Ant bring infinite creativity and love to the improv community of Hamtramck. Connected with the bar Ghost Light, the Ant makes for the perfect spot to grab a drink and see unforgettable shows with amazing people

Cool place to watch some local improv, every night of the week apparently. Beer was cheap (in a good way) and people were friendly. Neighborhood might look a little down trodden, but I doubt there are ever any problems. Definitely recommend checking it out.

Discovered this place by accident. Very street theater feel. No glam here just fold up chairs and a stage. If you are looking for decent amateur night or local acts this would be a great place to go.

Review №55

A cool little venue in Hamtramck, across the street from the Ant Theater so be careful if the show youre attending might be there. We saw kill Tony and the Tony Hinchcliffe Stand Up Show for the MotorCity Comedy Festival. The venue as well organized but we did feel jammed and with vary little legroom on folding aluminum chairs. The staff were friendly, there was a cash bar and the bathrooms are serviceable. The sound system was good for Stand Up Show we had no trouble hearing. We parked at the library nearby because the street parking was full.
