About Varsity Theater
Varsity Theater is a historic live-music venue in the heart of Minneapolis’ Dinkytown neighborhood (near the University of Minnesota campus). Originally opened in 1915 as the University Theater, it was remodeled in 1939 by famed architects Liebenberg & Kaplan and renamed the Varsity Theater (cinematreasures.org ). With its Streamline Moderne Art Deco façade and iconic black-and-yellow neon marquee, it has been a Dinkytown landmark for decades (mndaily.com ) (fohonline.com ). The building seated about 900 after the 1930s renovation (fohonline.com ), though current capacity is roughly 750 (configurable) for concerts (www.eventticketscenter.com ). Varsity was a movie palace and community theater through the mid-20th century, then hosted an underground club in 1990 and later a temporary studio space. In 2005 it was reborn as a “vaudeville house for the 21st Century” under local restaurateur Jason McLean (preservedinkytown.wordpress.com ). In 2017 a California-based real estate group acquired Varsity (Downtown Properties/Gaw Capital) to continue operating it as a music venue (mndaily.com ). Despite changes in ownership, the theater keeps its vintage charm – ornate painted details and a “baroque” interior have been lovingly preserved (specialevents.livenation.com ) – while serving as a popular concert hall. Tour managers say Varsity’s elegant room and buffer zone can make it “among the best in the country” for its size (fohonline.com ).
Today Varsity Theater is an indoor, standing-room-oriented rock and music club. It mixes student and music-scene energy with a touch of old-school cinema nostalgia. The space features a grand lobby and a two-level auditorium with a mezzanine/balcony. A standout feature is the baroque and garden-like decor – lobby and interior are trimmed with decorative tiles, vines, and a “twinkle-lit” ceiling that gives the room a festive vibe (specialevents.livenation.com ). (Even the restrooms are famously over-the-top, complete with faux-rock walls, mirrors, and a built-in bar. In fact, the loo was once a finalist in Cintas’ “America’s Best Restroom” contest – described as an “Alice in Wonderland-like grotto” with ornate gilded mirrors (bringmethenews.com ).) Varsity’s unique character, historic marquee and atmosphere have made it notable both locally and in touring circuits.
Events and Programming
Varsity Theater hosts live music shows most nights, focusing on rock, indie, jam-band, hip-hop, dance and special-occasion events. Its schedule ranges from local college bands and dance parties to regional and national touring acts. Acts are often in the alternative/indie/pop/rock genres – for example, the venue credit list includes names like KT Tunstall, The Fray, Goo Goo Dolls, Imogen Heap, Suzanne Vega and many others (fohonline.com ), as well as Midwest favorites and rising local stars. According to concert databases, the venue has seen thousands of shows: over 2,000 indie-rock and 2,100 rock performances have been documented there (www.concertarchives.org ). Electronica nights, DJ dance events, private parties and wedding receptions also appear on the calendar. On any given weekend Varsity might present 1–3 concerts; midweek shows and student-party nights occur often during school semesters. Regular college nights or theme shows may recur each term (for example, holiday party events or fundraisers).
Since 2018, Varsity has pushed to schedule more consistent programming. After a hiatus in late 2016, new management threw a big reopening party and has steadily hosted music every month. Even during the COVID era, Varsity did private events and by early 2022 was back to a weekly public show schedule (www.225batonrouge.com ). Ticket prices for evening concerts vary by event and artist: most falls in the $20–$40 range, with smaller club shows sometimes under $20 and headliners up to $50–$60. (Check each show’s listing for exact pricing.) Antique “Student Scene” or student-discount nights are occasional, but in general patrons are encouraged to buy in advance.
Tickets and Booking
Tickets are sold primarily by the venue. They go on sale through official channels – typically on the theater’s website and authorized ticket outlets. (Because a large operator like Live Nation owns Varsity, online sales often use a big ticketing system behind the scenes, but patrons simply use the “Buy Tickets” link on the Varsity website.) For popular shows, tickets may be released weeks in advance; follow the venue on social media or sign up for email/SMS alerts to get presale codes or on-sale announcements. There is no major box office open during weekdays, but a ticket window / Will Call is usually open on show days (starting an hour or two before doors). If a show isn’t sold out in advance, some tickets may be available at the door. However, day-of-door tickets are not guaranteed – it’s wise to buy tickets early to ensure entry.
Pricing tiers usually depend on general admission (cheapest) versus any reserved seating or VIP upgrades. Varsity is mostly general admission (standing) on the floor, so there are few price tiers beyond GA vs. balcony or suite level (some shows may offer a limited number of reserved seats in the balcony, or a private “dinner table” section). Occasionally the theater offers some VIP packages (with backstage tours or special lounge access). Keep an eye on the event pages, which will detail any such tiers. In general, tickets range from very affordable (for local or nonprofit shows) up to a few dozen dollars for national touring acts. Students often form lines at college-week shows, while concertgoers for out-of-town bands tend to arrive earlier.
Seating and Layout
Varsity Theater is designed for live shows with a mostly standing audience. The main floor is an open General Admission pit stretching up to a stage at one end. The raised stage has a permanent safety rail and a small equipment area. Fans usually pack the wide floor close to the stage during concerts, with overflow filling back near the floor-level bar. On the sides and rear of the ground floor there are some folding chairs or benches for seating, but the vast majority of the floor is open. Sound-wise, the center of the floor gives a balanced mix – too close to the sides may hit louder speakers. Based on producer notes, Varsity now features a top-tier sound system: in 2013 it added Electro-Voice XLD281 line-array speakers (six per side) and six EV subwoofers (fohonline.com ), so you can expect high SPLs (up to ~120 dB) and clear audio quality throughout the space.
Above the floor there is a balconied mezzanine that wraps the back of the hall. The balcony has fixed seating and some small tables; it also contains a bar and occasionally private booth areas for VIPs (www.eventticketscenter.com ). This upper level overlooks the action and is often green-lit. Reserved seats (when offered) are typically here. Everyone up there still gets a good view – it’s maybe 100 seats total – but it is a lofted area, so the acoustic balance is slightly bass-enhanced. Patrons in seats are the only ones who can sit; others stand along the railing or at bar stools. The balcony is accessible via stairs or an elevator. Under normal setup, capacity is around 700–750 total (www.eventticketscenter.com ) (the 4th Street Party musician space is about 4,834 sq ft (specialevents.livenation.com )).
For optimal viewing: if you want to be near the action, floor center is best (but be aware it can fill up early). If you prefer sitting, the front row of the balcony offers a clear line-of-sight. Most shows have unrestricted sightlines, as support pillars are only at the extreme sides. Acoustically, the sweet spot is roughly two-thirds back on the floor where you hear a blend of direct sound and stage PA. Avoid standing too close to the stage monitors (the floor tends to get muddy in front of the kicks). The venue staff reserves some space along the left side of the floor as an ADA-accessible seating area (halfaccess.org ), so that zone has a clear view and is kept open for wheelchairs.
Getting There and Parking
Varsity Theater’s address is 1308 SE 4th Street, Minneapolis, MN 55414 (www.varsitytheater.com ). It sits on 4th Street SE between 12th and 13th Avenues in the University/Dinkytown district, a few blocks east of campus. If driving, note that most parking in this neighborhood is metered or paid. There is no free venue lot. Street parking is available on side streets (watch the signs); a short walk away is the City of Minneapolis “4th Street Ramp” garage (entrance at 17th Ave & 4th St) (www.varsitytheater.com ). Many attendees pre-book parking in private lots or ramps (via parking apps) since spaces fill up fast on busy nights. Due to frequent construction around Dinkytown, allow extra time to find a spot. Valet parking is not offered.
Public transportation is a convenient option. Several city bus routes run through Dinkytown. In particular, Metro Transit buses 2, 3, 6 (and campus shuttles) stop just a short walk away on University Ave or 4th St (moovitapp.com ). The venue is roughly 0.6 miles from the University East Bank light-rail station (Stadium Village stop on the METRO Blue/Green line), so you can also ride the train and walk to the theater (about 10 minutes northwest on 5th Ave). Note that Blue/Green line trains run until around 12:40 AM (first trains ~4:23 AM (moovitapp.com )) on weeknights, so late-night outbound transit is possible. From downtown Minneapolis, you can catch a direct bus (Route 2/3) to the campus area without a transfer.
If using ride-share (Uber/Lyft/taxi), the simplest drop-off is directly on 4th Street in front of the building. There is a small pull-up lane so cars can stop momentarily. (Occasionally cars are asked to use 15th or 13th Ave for staging if it’s very crowded.) The University Ave bridge over I-94, one block west, has a bus rapid-transit station with a pedestrian plaza – from there it’s a short land-walk east. For walk-in arrivals, the Varsity is a few minutes’ stroll from the U of M Memorial Union, and about 15 minutes on foot from Hennepin & Washington downtown.
Inside the Venue
Upon arrival, a security guard at the door will scan tickets on your phone (digital tickets via the Live Nation/Varsity app are required; paper or print-at-home barcodes are discouraged) (www.varsitytheater.com ). Planning ahead is advised: cell reception in old theaters can be spotty, so download or save your ticket to your device before you get there. All attendees and bags are checked. Small bags up to about 12″×6″×12″ are allowed (www.varsitytheater.com ). Non-transparent purses should be searched; large backpacks or oversized bags are not permitted. Prohibited items include weapons, outside food/drink, and large professional cameras. (Phone cameras are normally fine for personal photos, although flash and tripods are banned.) During screening, any water bottle or prop must be empty. Aside from that, the house is casual – concertgoers dress in jeans or concert T-shirts, but warm winter coats (in colder months) or band merch are common.
Inside, the atmosphere is lively: a bar runs along one side of the floor and up into the balcony. The main bar widens at the back wall and faces the stage, so many listeners gather there. The bartenders serve a broad drink menu: local craft beers and stouts, domestic beers, wine and liquor drinks. Uniquely, they even carry Toronto-based THC-infused hard seltzers for events (legal in Minnesota) (www.varsitytheater.com ). Snacks or small plates (like chips, pretzels or bar foods) are occasionally available or you can order pizza directly to the counter. The venue is cashless for transactions – credit/debit cards or mobile payment are accepted at the bar and snack stands (www.varsitytheater.com ), though if you want to pay cash you should do so in advance at the box office and get “cashback” tokens inside.
Audience amenities include two restrooms on each level (men’s and women’s) and an accessible stall in each (halfaccess.org ). In winter, a limited coat check may be provided for a small fee (staff standing by the lobby will let you know). There is also a merchandise table for touring bands set up in the lobby or side area on most nights – T-shirts, CDs, stickers and collectible items. If your phone or device needs charging, there are wall outlets near the lobby seating; however, space is tight so using them isn’t guaranteed. The venue now provides improved Wi-Fi for staff and guest use (mndaily.com ), so you might be able to get basic coverage for messaging or mobile tickets.
Showtime typically means dimmed lights and a pumping soundcheck cue. On the floor, wait for green laser pointers or flashing strobes – if the floor is packed, DJs often flick strobe lights at eye level. During action, the sound is clear (engineers have adjusted the PA to manage the long, narrow room). There is no smoking inside; smoking is allowed outside only in designated areas. When the show ends, the crowd often stays to chat or dance at the bar. Hold onto your belongings as you exit – it’s usually quite crowded at the door when an event lets out.
Nearby Amenities
Dinkytown is a bustling spot for eating and drinking. Within a few blocks of Varsity you’ll find quick bites and full-service restaurants catering to students and locals alike. For quick pre-show meals there are pizza joints (like Pizza Luce’s Dinkytown location), tacos, Chinese and Thai places on University Ave, and casual grill pubs (the Tavern on Grand at 4th/University is very popular for burgers and wings). Coffee shops and cafes are numerous – options like Caffe Biaggio or Wigley’s Beanery on 4th St serve sandwiches and coffee if you want a casual bite or caffeine fix before a show. For sit-down dinner, consider local favorites such as The Nook (a German beer hall on 5th St with traditional pub food), or Mah-Hahn Kitchen (Korean BBQ a bit further west). Around the theater on 4th St are also several bars and taverns: the Blue Nile Lounge and local brewery Taproom are next door, plus sports pubs like Greenwood’s (on 4th & Cedar). These spots are great for meeting up before or after concerts.
If you’re traveling from farther away, lodging is somewhat limited right on campus. Many concertgoers stay downtown or in nearby neighborhoods: the East Bank area around Stadium Village has a couple of big hotels (the Radisson Red and Graduate Minneapolis) about a 10–15 minute walk away. Downtown Minneapolis is about 1¼ miles west (15+ minute drive or a series of bus rides), where dozens of hotels line Nicollet Mall and the Sixth Street/Washington Avenue entertainment district. Mid-priced hotels and short-term rentals can also be found around Prospect Park or the University area north of Washington Ave. After the show, rideshare and taxi drivers are usually available out front; the Blue Line Light Rail also runs until ~12:40 AM from Stadium Village if you’re headed toward downtown or the airport.
To make the most of your visit, allow time to arrive early. On busy nights, lines can form around 30 minutes before doors open, especially in fall and winter when coats come off. Check the calendar for portion – campus-area shows may start earlier (7–8 PM) while major acts often go on at 9 PM or later. Local nightlife options mean the night need not end at Varsity; adjacent neighbors often hop from one bar to another until well past midnight. If parking is tight, you may want to add extra trekking time or use street parking a few blocks away. Keep an eye on social posts from Varsity or the booking promoter for any updates (for example, set times and door times tend to be posted just before the gig). Staff and fellow fans are usually friendly – don’t hesitate to ask an usher if you have questions or need assistance once inside.
What Makes This Venue Special
Varsity Theater’s unique blend of history, design and atmosphere makes it beloved by both performers and audiences. Its vintage architectural roots (hundred-year-old theater with art-deco papered walls and mosaic tiles) give it a one-of-a-kind vibe (cinematreasures.org ) (fohonline.com ). Unlike a modern concrete arena, Varsity feels tucked away – a city gem for serious music fans. The community has countless local stories about the old days, and even the current decor reflects playful artistry (the terrazzo tile floors, stained woodwork and murals set it apart). Many people cite the bathrooms as a must-see attraction – the “grotto” restroom with a live-stage view and flashy decoration is virtually world-famous (bringmethenews.com ). The projection of artsy images on the ceiling or the occasional doodle on the walls (sometimes happening during break sets) add to its character.
Acoustically and technically, Varsity now rivals similar-sized clubs anywhere. With a recent sound upgrade to EV line-arrays (fohonline.com ), the venue can handle top touring acts without outside rigs, which performers praise. Long-time audiences also note its friendly atmosphere – it feels more open and community-oriented than many newer clubs. Local traditions (such as the occasional New Year’s show, student pride night, or a post-UofM football party) tie the venue into university culture. In short, artists and fans love that Varsity offers intimacy (you can literally reach out and touch the stage barrier) along with professional production. Its combination of old-school theater charm and modern concert amenities gives it personality that stands out in the Minneapolis scene.
Visitor Tips and Information
Accessibility: Varsity Theater is wheelchair-accessible. There is an elevator to the balcony and restrooms (halfaccess.org ), and a ramp down to the main floor. The venue designates an accessible seating area on the left side of the floor (near the stage) with a reserved space for one or two wheelchairs (halfaccess.org ). An accessible restroom stall is on each level (halfaccess.org ). To buy accessible seats, book through a staff member or use the venue’s box office (they can set aside ADA spots in advance).
Age and ID: Check event listings for age restrictions. Often shows at Varsity are 18+ (valid government ID required), since the venue serves alcohol. Some events (matinees or school-related performances) may allow younger patrons. When in doubt, call or email the venue office for a policy clarification. Even if minors are admitted, accompanying adults must supervise and ensure behavior is concert-appropriate.
What to Bring: Bring a valid ID (even if older than 21, it’s needed to get past security). Use a phone ticket or printed barcode – loss of internet or late arrival can delay entry. Earplugs are wise if you’re sensitive to loud music. Small cash ($1 bills) might be useful for coat check or tips, but inside the building everything else is by card (www.varsitytheater.com ). You can bring a small clear bag or purse up to the allowed size (www.varsitytheater.com ). Some attendees like to wear layers – the downstairs floor can heat up quickly once crowded. Dress code is casual; costumes are sometimes worn for theme nights, but street clothes are perfectly fine for most concerts.
Box Office and Policies: The box office window typically opens around showtime. If you have trouble accessing an online ticket, you can email the venue or ask at Will Call. Varsity is strict on their polices: you will be turned away if bringing firearms, non-empty containers, or other prohibited items. Photography rules vary by show: generally amateur phone photos are allowed, but professional camera gear (detachable lenses, tripods) is not. Also, remember that smoke is only permitted outside; if you step out, you likely cannot re-enter.
Arrival Tips: Concerts often have long lines at busy times. Arriving 30–60 minutes early lets you park, get through security, and pick a good spot. Doors usually open around 7–8 PM for an 8 or 9 PM show. If your party is late or splitting up, set a meetup point – the lobby has couches by the front door, or the large front plaza near the sidewalk is easier to find. During the show, hold on to your spot; Varsity rarely hands out seat-relocation tickets. If you need a break, the downstairs area has standing room near the second bar.
Common Mistakes to Avoid: Don’t queue at the wrong door – Varsity’s main entrance is on 4th Street. Avoid clogging stairways or aisles (security may direct traffic tightly). If you leave the building, know that re-entry usually is not allowed. Also, budget extra time if going to an after-party or second location; the neighborhood is popular, and rideshare wait times can spike late at night.
Insider Tip: If you get a chance, chat with the longtime staff or bartenders – many have worked at Varsity for years and know the history and best concert lore. During the show, you might even hear tunes picked by the house DJ between acts, including vintage Minnesota rock or local artists – the lighting operator often drops tracks during sound checks. Lastly, if you’re a photo enthusiast, consider looking for the famous Varsity “V” marquee or the decorated entrance for a post-show selfie – it’s a Minneapolis icon!
What is the seating capacity of Varsity Theater?
Varsity Theater holds roughly 700–750 people for live events (www.eventticketscenter.com ). The main floor is general-admission standing room, while the balcony has about 100 seats with a small VIP area (www.eventticketscenter.com ). Actual capacity can vary slightly with different stage setups, but about 750 is the typical max at any concert.
Where is Varsity Theater located and how do I get there?
The theater’s address is 1308 SE 4th Street in Minneapolis, right in Dinkytown by the University of MN (www.varsitytheater.com ). It’s accessible by bus (routes like 2, 3, 6 run nearby on University Ave (moovitapp.com )) and about a 10-minute walk from the Stadium Village light-rail station. If driving, street parking and a pay ramp on 4th Street are the nearest options; rideshares typically drop off right at the 4th Street entrance.
What kind of events happen at Varsity Theater?
Varsity Theater mainly hosts live music concerts spanning indie, rock, pop and hip-hop genres. You’ll see touring national bands as well as local and college performers. The venue also holds occasional DJ dance nights, comedy shows, and community events. Over the years it’s featured acts like The Fray, Goo Goo Dolls and countless student bands (fohonline.com ). Check the calendar; most weekends have at least one show (often more) in the Fall and Spring.
How can I buy tickets for a show?
Tickets are sold through the theater’s official channels. You should purchase in advance via the venue’s website (look for “Tickets” or the specific event page) or at the on-site box office on show nights. Ticket prices vary by show, so check each event’s info. If you miss buying online, a limited number of remaining tickets may be sold at the door when doors open – but this is not guaranteed, so advance purchase is safest.
Are there reserved seats or is it all general admission?
Most events at Varsity are general admission on the floor. Few reserved seats exist; if used, they’re typically on the balcony level. This means the floor is standing-only closest to the stage, then next rows of chairs or benches, and a higher-level balcony with fixed seating (www.eventticketscenter.com ). Check the tickets page – for some shows the balcony seats may have a different ticket price, but the floor remains GA.
Does Varsity Theater offer accessible seating?
Yes. The theater is wheelchair-accessible. There is an elevator from the lobby to the balcony and restrooms (halfaccess.org ). On the main floor, an accessible seating section is kept at the left side of the room (close to the stage) for patrons in wheelchairs or with mobility needs (halfaccess.org ). An accessible restroom stall is also available on each level (halfaccess.org ). You can purchase ADA seats by contacting the venue beforehand.
What items can’t I bring inside?
Varsity enforces a standard concert ban list. Prohibited items include weapons, large backpacks or suitcases, non-empty food/drink containers, and professional cameras with lenses/tripods. Outside food or drink (including alcohol) is not allowed. Small personal items and clear small bags (12″×6″×12″ or smaller) are permitted (www.varsitytheater.com ) but will be searched. Cell phones are allowed (often used as tickets) but must remain on silent. If in doubt, ask security before line.
Can I take pictures or recordings during the show?
Non-flash phone photos for personal use are usually allowed at Varsity, unless a specific artist has stricter rules. Professional cameras (DSLRs, SLRs) or video equipment typically require a press pass, so those are not permitted in general admission. Always respect the performers’ preferences; if a venue-wide ban is in place, it will be announced at the door.
What are the age restrictions and ID policy?
Most concerts at Varsity are 18+ (ID required). Some events, especially late-night or 21+ college parties, strictly enforce a minimum age of 18 (younger teens won’t be admitted). A government-issued photo ID (driver’s license or passport) is required to enter. Occasionally all-ages shows or family events happen, but always check the event listing. When in doubt, contact the theater or buy a ticket – their policy is posted on the ticket page.
Is there parking available, and are there costs?
There is no free parking lot at Varsity. Street parking is available but metered (some meters can be paid by credit card or apps). The closest public parking ramp is the 4th Street Ramp (a few blocks away), which charges hourly rates in the evening. Paid private lots exist within walking distance. The venue suggests reserving spots through parking apps to ensure availability. Always check signage – some university lots near Varsity may prohibit non-student parking.
What public transit serves the theater?
Varsity Theater is well-connected by buses. Minneapolis Metro bus routes 2, 3, and 6 all stop within a block or two of the theater. For example, routes 2 and 3 run along University Ave at Dinkytown. The nearest light-rail station is Stadium Village (Green/Blue Line) about 0.6 miles northwest, a 10- to 15-minute walk. Plan your trip on Metro Transit, and note that evening trains run until ~12:40 AM (moovitapp.com ).
Can I park or get dropped off right at the venue?
Ride-share drivers can pull up on SE 4th Street directly in front of the building for drop-off. If you drive yourself, you’ll need to find street parking or use the ramp, as noted above. The front entrance opens onto 4th Street; there is a curb cut for brief stops. After a show, expect traffic on 4th Street and nearby 15th Ave as crowds disperse, so allow extra exit time.
Is Varisty Theater indoors, and what if it’s raining?
Yes, Varsity Theater is fully indoors (cinematreasures.org ). There is no outdoor seating or stage, so weather is not a factor once you’re inside. If it rains, just plan on entering through the front door on 4th Street; the small overhang and lobby keep most of the elements out. On a rainy day you might want an umbrella or raincoat for the walk from your car or the transit stop into the entrance.
Are there restaurants or bars near the theater?
Absolutely. Dinkytown is loaded with eateries and pubs. Within a very short walk you'll find pizza places (like Pizza Luce), burger joints, taco/Chinese takeouts on University Ave, and sit-down spots like Five Watt (place for sandwiches and brews). The Tav on Grand (burgers and sports bar food) is just across University Ave. Coffee shops, bars and fast-food chains all cluster within a few blocks. The nearby Stadium Village area also has a full dining scene. If you’ll be in town overnight, downtown Minneapolis (15–20 minutes west) offers dozens of restaurant and bar options too.
Is there a coat check or cloakroom inside?
Seasonally, yes. In colder months (roughly late fall through winter), Varsity usually provides a coat-check service for a small fee (like $2–$3). Look for staff in the lobby checking coats or handing out numbered tags. In warmer weather they typically stop this service. If coat check is offered, you’ll have to pay cash, so see the staff member before you enter the main hall.
How early should I arrive for a show?
It’s wise to arrive 30–45 minutes before the posted showtime, especially on weekends. Doors often open an hour before the headliner, so arriving early lets you pick a good spot and avoid late lines. For very popular concerts or student nights, people can line up even earlier. Also allow extra time for parking or security checks. The earlier you come, the better your chances of standing near the front or getting a seat if available.
Are currencies other than USD accepted inside?
No. All transactions inside (box office, concession stands, coat check) are in U.S. Dollars. Furthermore, the venue is cashless for most purchases (www.varsitytheater.com ). Bring a credit/debit card or use mobile pay (Apple Pay/Google Pay) for drinks and food. If you only have cash, you can exchange it at the box office for a token or card for use inside, but generally credit cards are assumed.
Why is Varsity’s bathroom famous?
The restroom at Varsity is known for its quirky “grotto” design. Decorated with rock-like walls, mosaics and gold-framed mirrors, it was even a finalist in a national contest for best restroom. Uniquely, bartenders can serve drinks over the restroom counter so patrons can sip while they watch the concert through a window into the adjacent venue (bringmethenews.com ). It’s often called an “Alice in Wonderland-like” room and is a fun, unusual feature of the theater.
