Review from Deb B.

This is a great venue as sooo many have said before me. It is an intimate setting without a bad seat in the house. The best thing about 7 Stages is the actual shows they get. I have seen shows there, that I can't imagine seeing anywhere.
This is not your "Fox Theatre" type place. I saw one play a few years ago there about if Martha Stewart and George Bush were having an affair. The two characters in the play were naked with GB having a Texas star painted on and his penis was red, white and blue! Martha was just as naked with black and white bars painted over her torso. It was one of the best plays I've ever seen.
Anything is possible in a play there, but I've never been disappointed and will always check them out! -

7 Stages Theatre is an independent, local non-profit theater located in Little Five Points. If you've ever walked down Euclid, you've probably noticed it as the entire northern side of the building is painted with a colorful mural of people's faces. The entrance to the theater has an old school marquee, which takes you back to the 50s.
What I like most about this theater, as several Yelpers have already mentioned, is its intimate atmosphere. There are two stages. The main stage seats about 200 and the back stage seats up to 90. I've been to a performance at the back stage where the seating configuration was designed for about only 20 -- talk about intimate. This is a basic, bare bones theater. Nothing fancy about it. I thought the sound and lighting were good and the seats comfortable.
To enter the stages, you have to walk into the Java Lords coffee shop next door and walk all the way to the back, past the restrooms. Jim S. noted in his review that the bathrooms are "lacking," and I couldn't agree more. They can be downright gross.
The staff is friendly. You can buy tickets online, over the phone, or walk-up up to one hour before any show. For parking, you can park in a pay lot close-by, next to Arden's Garden, or you can park along any of the neighborhood side streets for free.Listed in: Atlanta Arts and Entertainment

This is a fantastic and intimate place to watch a show! Most recently, I attended a show called "Flowers and Fire." The entire play was created by their Youth Creates program and my friends son, Brendan; was one of the performers. Let me just say that I am amazed and in awe that a group of talented teenagers came together to create a great show. It gave me an understanding of what teens are feeling and coping with these days as well as made me realize that I am old! There was one segment of the show where they text one another and I could not figure out what they were saying...darn acros!
Anyways, it looks like a great summer program for teens and I was happy to see that one of my friends is a teacher for the youth program as well! (Shout out to Brian Crawford...who is going to be huge actor...just watch!)
The theater definitely has a lot of unique and creative shows all season long and I encourage everyone to support the arts! -

I have to pick and choose what I see for live theater. This performance the other night was pretty controversial and highly political. "My Name is Rachel Corrie" was riveting and sad. Rachel Corrie was a 23 year old peace advocate. She died when she was run over by a bulldozer. Sad loss of life by someone so young.
7 Stages is a cool little neighborhood theater.
Eat at Wisteria and walk the few blocks to 7 Stages.
Cheers!

What a great venue. Went to see HAIR over the weekend. VERY comfortable seats. Not a bad seat in the house. Box office was extremely cordial.
Product was top notch!
Bathroom situation, however, is lacking. Pretty nasty and bright for a theatre restroom. However, it is in a coffee shop.
Good theatre though! -

I ended up here for the Dracula Rock Opera. My friend who is a tattoo artist @ Holy Mother down the street hooked us up with some tickets. I had no clue when we were visiting him that he bought us tickets to this. So we went. Great place. Coffee bar/ Liquor bar on the side, with a smoking area outside. Inside you have Wi-Fi and some cool artwork on the walls. Its not some fancy spot. It adds more to the neighborhood. Seats out comfortable, little close. Overall we had a great time. You can bring your drinks into the show from the bar. Hit the place up, I'm sure you'll have a good time.

I recently saw "The Little Prince" here and am now a big fan. I love the intimate setting, and it's in a great area of town, which means there are lots of other great places to visit before and after you see a show.
