Ah the Shakespeare Tavern. A lot of people who have not lived in Atlanta long do not even know it exists. I came here in high school once for extra credit. I saw "Antony and Cleopatra." I remember liking it and getting to sit pretty close to the stage.
Recently I came here for "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare Abridged." It was nothing short of fantastic. The cast was great and worked their butts off. I have not read all of the plays, but I knew the storyline of most of the big ones enough to keep up and enjoy the way they parodied them.
I had forgotten that they served food here. Next time I will have to try it. I did get a few drinks though and am very glad they serve a variety of ales; it is only fitting. I remembered the place being bigger, but it had been many years since I came the last time. Even our large group sitting in the back upstairs could see quite well.
I definitely need to come back and see some of the plays I have never seen or read before. It is definitely not just for theater and Shakespeare snobs!
What a great place! This is really the kind of establishment that I love. The atmosphere is very intimate, and perfect for a dinner theater sort of vibe. Just large enough to hold a medium sized crowd, but small enough that every seat in the house is good. The sound system was top notch and we had a great time.
If you choose to have dinner before the show, it won't take long to pick up. You order off of a limited menu and have your food within a minute or two. The food is decent, but be warned, it is all pre-made. Tasty, but in my opinion not necessarily worth the money you're paying for it. The drinks aren't cheap unless you get a pitcher of beer, then they're pretty good. Excellent drink selection though. Desserts are delicious though, so at least have some money handy for those during intermission. We didn't quite know what to do with our used dishes, and neither did the staff in the balcony. To be fair, most of the staffers are volunteers.
If you do choose to have dinner and a drink, try to get a seat downstairs! The balcony seats don't have much room to place your food and it can get a bit awkward.
FYI, parking is in the hospital garage across the street. You'll get a discounted rate if you show your ticket stub. This is really the only reasonable parking option in the area.
Ok so I haven't ever been to a dinner theatre thing before, so I had no idea what to expect. Usually, it's dinner and then a play/performance elsewhere.
We saw Hamlet in April. I enjoy Hamlet, mostly because of all the ghosts, back-stabbing, etc. They did a very good job. I enjoyed seeing the actors come out into the crowd and making us feel like we're part of it.
The food was pretty good also. I tried doing something less calorie laden by getting the tomato soup and the goat cheese salad, but when I tasted my hubby's Shepard's Pie, I wish I had gone full-on calorie. It was pretty darned good.
It's a good date night place with another couple or a small group too. We were with a small group for a friend's birthday. The actors wished her a very happy birthday and it was a good night.
My wife and I were really impressed with Shakespeare Tavern! She is big into theater, so I figured this would be a good place to take her on a Saturday night. I was definitely right. First off, the staff is extremely friendly, and the food was actually pretty good (I had never had Shepard's Pie before, but truly liked it). Of course the production itself was awesome. We also enjoyed the ambiance of the place (decked out like Shakesperian England). We'll definitely be going back soon!
I consider this to be one of the gems of atlanta. you don't really expect intimate type theaters like this anymore. forget the Fox, you get almost front -row seats no matter where you sit. some friends and i went to watch Richard III last weekend, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was my friends first time, but i had been here a few times during college when i lived nearby. Not much has changed, and that's a good thing. Great cast of actors, and great artistic director. was blown away by the leading actor who played Richard III. felt like i was in london again. even the food. the pub-like menu was perfect for the setting. i ordered the baked bollianaise (sp?) and it was great. my friends said they just wished their meat pie and shepherd's pie could be hotter, but i think british food is like that. for dessert get the apple crisp w/ ice cream. if you're in the mood for shakespeare, this is a must-see. they have rotating plays all year long, so you're bound to find one you like. I think my favorite was "Midsummer Night's Dream". I wished i had read Richard III before i came though. thank goodness someone in my group was knowledgeable about it. however, you're still able to grasp the plot by just watching. great place!
We were a group of 4 that attended the play MacBeth last night. The play itself was good, kudos to the witches and drunken doorman with his Scottish brogue - both a sort of Falstaffian reprieve from the drama of war & murder. The costumes were very well done as were the fight scenes.
At times it was difficult to follow along during the play. For example, some of the major characters were killed off early, only to show up reincarnated later as another person in another format. Usually this is easily accomplished by a simple costume change, but for one actor in particular a mere change of robes was just not enough. This was evident by the audience frequently referring to the play bill to determine who was playing who in which scene.
Lastly, some of the actors had a rapid cadence of speech & was hard to digest. Granted that this is old English and not the easiest to read or listen to, however when some actors are running through lines at light-speed it makes it doubly hard to keep up.
If they were to slow down a little it would have been more enjoyable.
We will be back again.
The Canterbury Tales served as my introduction to the Shakespeare Tavern. I have long counted the Wife of Bath among my favorite figures in literature and Chaucer has always held a special place in my otherwise Shakespeare-ridden heart. It is with this mindset that I plopped my derriere on a balcony seat. I was pleasantly surprised to see a full house [it was a sold out show!].
I was mildly hungry but not enough to partake of the cafeteria dining setup. Because we had balcony seating, eating was slightly cumbersome and potentially dangerous to one's outfit. Several people around us were attempting to manage the feat, some not so successfully. If you intend for dining to be part of the experience, you should aim for seating downstairs at one of the tables.
As for the production itself, I had mixed feelings throughout large portions of it in the first half. I will readily admit to whispering the following words, at different instances, into my beau's ear: mozzarella, gouda, gorgonzola, and pecorino. No, we don't have sexual fetish involving cheese. I just couldn't digest some of the cheesiness on the stage.
The acting was superb and well-timed. A phenomenal job was done with taking the essence of Chaucer's work and adapting it to modernity. I appreciate and recognize the efforts of Shakespeare Tavern in making British plays and literature more accessible [and therefore, enjoyable] for the average person. That said, there's a line that can be crossed when you incorporate overdone pop culture references into seminal works. That line was crossed, jumped, skewered, and redrawn. I know I'm probably alone in this [as all the guffawing around me would suggest], but I groan instead of laugh when Dean Martin's "That's Amore" and references to "The Godfather" occur in the 14th century. I'm wholly expecting an anachronistic experience, so it's certainly not the unrealistic nature that bothers me, but the cliché.
I'm ready for the pop culture references!
I'm aching for clever contemporary commentary!
Give it to me!
::has overused 1970's reference lobbed at her::
Oh.
See? Not as satisfying.
The rest of the performance solidly outweighed the cheese, though. And ultimately, I caved into the absurdity and found myself tickled three shades of red over a Japanese cinema / Quentin Tarantinoesque scene that messily and hilariously wrapped it all up.
I've heard nothing but wonderful things about the Elizabethan reproductions in costuming and delivery, so I very much look forward to experiencing some of Shakespeare Tavern's dramatic productions. I'll probably check out some comedies, too [because they're my favorite], but I'll know to steel myself for my low level dairy tolerance.
Hmm. I'd like to be clear that I'm rating the CONCEPT of this place. What a marvelous idea: present theater in an intimate setting, serve traditional English food, and have some mini-audience interaction.
I wasn't super impressed by the show we saw, but hey, it gave us something to talk about. I only wish I could have tried the fabled apple crisp... I liked the English Pasty a whole lot. During the dining portion, service is attentive and wonderful! They swoop down to take your trays away and clear your plates.
At $12 a ticket, I would definitely come back if I were to return to the ATL.
The Shakespeare Tavern is one of my favorite places in Atlanta. I don't get there nearly often enough (about 1 show a season). The actors are incredibly talented and I've never been disappointed with a show.
They firmly believe in audience interaction, so if you're a bit shy, get seated in the back or in the balcony. I was seated right in the front for Merry Wives of Windsor and found myself interacting with the cast on more than one occasion. While in keeping with the theater of Shakespeare's time, it can be a bit unnerving for someone not expecting it.
The food is also excellent with a rotating menu depending on the show. Some things stay constant like the rainy day tomato soup, which is one of my favorites. It's hearty pub fare, but still vegetarian (not vegan) friendly. They also have a good selection of beer and wine for those who believe in a little nip along with their theater.
I highly recommend it for a first date, girls night out, or just a fun way to spend an evening.
Went last night with the spouse and the eldest three kids - this was the second time I'd seen this (saw a few years ago).
Really solid and pleasant performance - we go a lot and they are awesome. It's times like these when non-profits like them need all the support they can get - both attendance-wise as well as donation-wise.
One of the best lines of the night (in the pre-play instructions): "Don't get in the way of the performers - they're emotionally unstable and armed with weapons."
Went on Saturday night on a UYE and had an absolute wonderful time. The show that night was "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)"
Just three actors recreate all 37 plays in 2 hours. Of course their versions are a little bit different than you have ever seen them ~ and a whole lot funnier! The actors also interact with the audience which adds to the experience.
The venue is very intimate. We sat in the balcony and I still felt close to the stage. The main floor has tables and the balcony has a small ledge. I didn't try the food but the beers were nice and cold.
I am interested in seeing another performance of a full Shakespeare play to see how they interpret it.
This was a great place for a really good time with a group of friends. Give it a go.
Ok, so I will admit, I knew nothing about William Shakespeare before attending Saturday nights UYE at The Shakespeare Tavern and I can honestly say - I still don't know anything about ol' Willie AFTER the show. Doesn't matter, because I am fluent in the universal language of laughter and thanks to fellow yelper Kristine M., I had a healthy dose in laughter this past Saturday night. Awesome UYE Kristine!
This place is great! If I would have known about this place when I first started dating Laura, I so would have brought her here. You can have drinks, have dinner, and, watch a play all in one place. While I didn't try the food on this visit, I was able to spy several dishes making its way out of the kitchen and from what I could tell, it was decent looking fare. I would easily come back for dinner and a show. The tavern also serves beer and wine; all be it a small selection of both domestics and imports, but they fit the bill. Surprisingly, prices weren't exacerbated like other venues in the area have a tendency to do.
If I were to describe this place in one word, hilarious would suit it perfectly. On this night we caught The Complete Works of William Shakespeare". As Randy G mentioned, it was 37 big Willie plays all performed by 3 male actors. Yes, I said all male and yes, there are several plays with females as lead characters, but no ladies were included in the line up; disturbing, but also the makings of an incredibly funny show.
The cast combines William Shakespeare poetry and play writes, with a heaping dose of homegrown comedy. I couldn't help but to get lost in the complexity of each character. I even found myself yearning for more readings, quotes and compilations of this noble poet.
Ttthhhhhssspppp!!!!! Oh who am I kidding?!?!?!? To read Shakespeare is NOTHING like the play or plays I just saw. So this point was clearly made by several of my fellow show attendees.
Never the less! I had an amazingly fun time with everyone Saturday night and am so looking forward to going back to The Shakespeare Tavern. And oh yeah, the after party?!?!?!?! Is where the REAL fun kicked in! **insert sinister laugh........now!** HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!
This might be a stretch, but I would say even Shakespeare himself would be a fan of this little establishment. Too often productions of Shakespeare tend to be pretentious, heavy-handed and/or excessively explanatory. The Tavern isn't the site of the greatest acting of all time, but it does an amazingly successful job of creating a relaxing space for its audience to really kick-back and enjoy theater. The food and drinks are not cheap, but worth the splurge for a complete night of dinner & entertainment. The box office and restaurant are completely staffed by volunteers, and you can feel good about supporting a real community-run enterprise. They have a student and teacher discount for tickets and offer at least one non-Shakespeare production (usually a musical) each season.
My new favorite low-key night out - pleasant and fun. I've seen a number of plays here so far (incl. Macbeth, A Midsummer Night's Dream, A Christmas Carol and Dr. Faustus), and I've loved the cast's interpretations of all the comedies and more lighthearted shows... Humor and wit is really their talent; I've often had to struggle to keep from laughing aloud when remembering a funny scene. I so far haven't seen a tragedy there that hasn't seemed a little overdramatic or just a bit cheesy...
The food (esp. the English Pasty and the cheesecake brownies) is yummy, but a little overpriced. Definitely share a pitcher of cider or a bottle of wine, though, to make a night of it.
Thanks, Kristine M, for planning the UYE to see "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)". I'd been wanting to go to tST for years, ever since I moved to Atlanta to go to Tech. Being so close to Tech, it was always suggested as a date night, but alas, engineers aren't always big on culture. That and North Avenue used to be a whole lot scarier.
Anyway, I was excited to finally get to go, but was worried about parking. Conveniently, I found some other website that recommended that parking in the Crawford Long deck is only $5, so that's where I headed.
After joining the group in the cheap seats in the balcony, I ventured down to the kitchen to get some wine and food. I had the cornish pasty. It was good enough, better than I thought it would be actually. The salad was fresh, and the flavor was decent (after all, they're imitating English food - what can you really expect?). I think I could have used a better crust to filling ratio, and a little bit more cooked crust, but all in all, not bad.
The wine selection was not great. I wish I'd thought ahead and pre-gamed a little more, or just stuck with beer in fact, since the wines are the kind that give you a headache the next day...It could have been that I had too much of it.... but I'm going to blame it on the selection instead.
As previously stated, we were sitting in the very last row. The chairs themselves were not great - just plain wooden chairs, with some cushions, though the cushions didn't help that much. Still for being in the back row, we were quite close. And considering the audience participation and my introvertedness, I'm glad that I wasn't any closer. So mental note - no need to buy the "good" seats.
The show was impressive - three guys playing a lot of roles. They were funny without being too cheesy. And they did manage to convince most of the audience to participate in the second act (or maybe that was the alcohol). I was a little disappointed at how they breezed through the comedies, since I know plenty about R+J and Hamlet... but they made Hamlet entertaining enough.
So yes, it would make a good fun date night, provided that it was a funny show and you went somewhere (maybe Django) for cocktails beforehand.
A wonderful place. Shakespeare's plays as they were originally intended to be seen-- bawdy, rowdy, and with alcohol. With this group, Shakespeare's many puns really come to life. It's a sit-down dinner theater, with tables arranged around the stage and a balcony. Great place to bring a date.
Best of all, if you call ahead and are willing to volunteer, you can see the show for free. Volunteering usually involves cleaning tables, taking tickets, and/or staying afterwards to sweep and clean up. In exchange, you get free seats in the balcony during the play.
What can I say? I love this place! Yes, it helps that I am a huge Shakespeare buff and was burying my nose into Othello before we were actually forced to in school. But! Even if you don't like Shakespeare, I guarantee you will like the Shakespeare Tavern.
First of all, they don't only do Shakespeare plays. The mister, some friends, and I just saw Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead this weekend, and it was awesome! Okay, so that one might be Shakespeare-based, but they have other performances that are even further away from the Elizabethan era. I promise.
They have wine, beer, cider, dinner, and desserts to please a variety of taste buds and budgets. They have tables to sit at or a balcony to perch in, and truthfully- I prefer the balcony. Great view of the stage, and the cheapest seats in the house at $12.
I always have a great time, every time I go! I recommend the Rainy Day Tomato Soup, too.
Don't park in the lot next to the Tavern- if you park across the street in the Crawford Long lot instead, the price is only $4.00 when you show your ticket stub.
Full disclosure, I worked in the Shakespeare Tavern kitchen for longer than I care to admit. But I don't think my opinion is too biased.
The performances are based around the style of Shakespeare's time: bawdy, acknowledgement of the audience (eye contact, etc), a generally less academic, more instant gratification approach. This is what they are good at.
If you are going to one show, make it a comedy. I think they mix in dramas for variety, they aren't bad but the comedies are much better. Go to a Georgia Shakespeare Festival (different!) performance if you want a more scholarly experience, though as mentioned above, the Shakespeare Tavern's approach is probably historically accurate.
I saw A Midsummer Night's Dream here and had a great time. The theatre is this neat Tudor building with lots of brick and dark wood inside, which really makes you feel like you're taking a trip back in time, or at least across the Atlantic to a cozy pub/playhouse. I appreciate their traditionalist approach to Shakespeare, using Elizabethan costumes and music to help tell the story. They went to a lot of effort to make the play accessible and enjoyable for everyone, even people who haven't studied Shakespeare and who aren't quite able to follow the language. Midsummer had lots of physical comedy and some fun fairy special effects.
They offer $2.50 pints of Guinness, Bass, Newcastle, Strongbow and Sweetwater IPA on Friday nights, and they will make you black and tans for an extra English tavern treat. Food was decent -- chips and guac appetizer comes with an impressive mountain of tasty dip. Everything's pre-made and warmed up for you, or in the case of my veggie sandwich, delivered to your plate still wrapped in cellophane. But the prices were reasonable -- we spent around $30 for beers, an appetizer, and two entrees.
We came on half price ticket night, and I'm not sure if I'm anxious to pay full price to come back. Maybe I'm too much of a snob to get into slapstick, and maybe they take a different tack with other plays, but while I had a good time, this place didn't leave me feeling like I'd had a great night-at-the-theatre experience. For $28/person (regular price for floor seats, not including any food or drinks) I kind of want that. But I will check out another show, preferably one of the histories or tragedies, if they have another special event like this.
I've been meaning to go to this place for years and never made it until last night. Hamlet was playing, which I had read but never seen on the stage.
First, the venue was very cool, and clean. The tickets (box seats) were reasonably priced, but there really isn't a bad seat in the house. One of my concerns was that the food would be ye olde' British pub grub (greasy and gross). It wasn't that at all. In fact, you can have pretty healthy food if you want. The beer selection was better than I expected it to be and I had a huge bottle of English beer which was really good. The food was also very reasonable and the kitchen (it's self-serve) was pretty efficient and appeared very clean.
The vibe of the crowd was also pretty friendly and not pretentious.
The stage is minimalist, and the focus is on the acting. The actors were (for the most part) very, very good and had a nice stage charisma. Only one of the players fell flat to my ears. All in all, if you like Shakespearian theater, then I would say you HAVE to visit this place. I understand they also do other kind of plays besides Shakespeare.
One caution: I tried to buy tickets last week at the last minute and it was sold out, so (at least in this case) it isn't something you can do spur of the moment. The performance I attended appeared to be sold out.
Great variety of shows, from tragedy to comedy and every shade in between. Shakespeare here is killer, as is everything else I've seen. I actually love the comedies and musicals. The balcony seats are really great because you get a view of the whole stage, but really there isn't a bad seat in the house. The actors are all really superb- Do go and see something there. I would suggest parking at the hospital across the street (Crawford Long).
The food is out of sight, and has vegetarian options including the killer Rainy Day Tomato soup with zucchini bread- a favorite of mine- and Dragon Noodles (not sure if they still have these, but if you see them, GET THEM, you won't regret it! The veggie shepherd's pie is also quite tasty. They do have beer on tap and wine available. Intermission brings the much anticipated dessert, so hurry to get in the front of the line. It is cafeteria-style, so there are no servers. A great night out at the theater, and delicious food- how can you beat it?
In no way, shape or form will I ever associate myself with going to the theater on a regular basis; mainly, because I prefer the company of sports and my testosterone driven man status; however, I heard about the Shakespeare Tavern from a reliable source who informed me that it was "different and perfect place to take a date."
Of course I was intrigued, so I went to their website and bought some tickets to their rendition of 'Romeo and Juliet'
The only plays that I had ever been to before going to the Shakespeare Tavern where shows like "Phantom of the Opera" at the Fox Theater.
Aside from the great performance by the actors at the Tavern, the seating offers an intimate setting between the audience and the performers; for example, my seats were right next to the stage and one of the actors who was playing the part of Tybalt (the villain) jokingly flirted with my date while staying within his rehearsed and perfectly executed play dialog.
I was amazed, to say the least. The Tavern offers its visitors a full course meal, accompanied by an excellent beer and wine selection, which can be consumed before or during the actual play. At intermission guests are then given the option to purchase more refreshments and desert ( I recommend the Apple Pie and a Sam Smith Oatmeal Stout)
Overall this was an unforgettable experience that my date and I will never forget.
Food has really changed since I went there a number of years ago. Now, the portions are hearty, you won't leave hungry. As for the play, it was fantastic, and the players seemed to really enjoy themselves, and were great to watch. We'll be going back to see the Tempest!
As someone else said, parking in the Crawford Long parking deck (immediately across the street) is the way to go. Parking is discounted if you present your ticket when leaving the deck.
If you've never been you should go, its a fun night for everyone!
Going to Shakepeare Tavern is always a good time: drinking and dining in the midst of a nice bare-bones stage setting while a troop of mostly talented actors put on whatever Shakespeare play they're currently running. They also run non-Shakepearean scripts but those are more interspersed between their namesake acts.
I've seen Hamlet and Romeo and Juliet and enjoyed both quite a bit. They do a good job accenting both the comedic and dramatic bits here: the performances are well-directed and the actors know how to milk Shakepeare's gags, mainly since some of the crew has been there for many years.
The food is decent and worth eating and fairly priced.
This would be a great place to take a date who is in to theater. Plus you're not going to spend too too much: the tickets run around $20, I think, and the food is cafeteria style before the show starts, so you don't have to tip a server for 3 hours of serving.
Because I was an English major, I was forced to go here for a school project. And I would like to thank my teacher for making me go!
This is seriously so much fun to go to! You can eat, drink wine or beer, be merry, and experience a play more so in the way it was probably first presented in the day.
You can go through the cafeteria-style line, get a few drinks, get some food (they do have vegan food, at least they did when I was there) and wait for the fun to begin. The actors tease you before the play then get into their roles and have a good old time performing right in your face while you enjoy it all.
I love this place!!! It has a very special place in my heart. I have been volunteering here for 5 years. I have even acted on the stage through a summer program. They do Shakespeare the way Shakespeare intended. Be prepared, the actors will look at you and interact during the play.The theatre is very intimate. There is truly not a bad seat in the house, believe me I've sat in most of them at some point. The food is very good. The menu changes every month to 2 months. I always enjoy my meal there The service is so wonderful. Dessert is always amazing. They are very well known for their apple crisp. But in my opinion, they have the best brownies in the world! Also, for some reason their Ginger Ale tastes the best too. If beer is your thing (it is a tavern after all) they now offer half price pints on Fridays!
It's been a long time since my last visit to the Shakespeare Tavern, but I always loved the atmosphere, the fine caliber of performances, and of course the plays!
That's all. For once, I'm keeping it short and sweet.
One of Atlanta's best kept secrets! It's a great date night or fun night out for anyone. The staff are amazing, the theater is lovely, and the actors are so talented. Not to mention the food and beer/wine selection! Overall a wonderful way to spend an evening.
I like Shakespeare tavern. The food is okay. Not very fresh but tastes okay. dessert isn't served until intermission. great place to see Shakespeare.
I cannot understand why this place is rated so high. The drinks and the food are overpriced for what they are. The food isn't even specially prepared for you. It's pre-packaged. The show we watched, Antony and Cleopatra, was a snoozer and made me wonder if I was watching an amateur theater troupe. I can't believe I paid money for this. At least we got the cheapest tickets and since there were very few people there, they upgraded our seats to the floor.
REDO! I had to redo this review since I've now been there around 9 times and am a verifiable bar wench. This is my favorite place to be on a weekend night. Call me a theatre geek (I am), but it's true. These guys are top notch. I have seen four different comedies (one not-so-Shakespearian) and I didn't stop laughing through any of them. I went to opening night of MacBeth and even though I had seen it before and there were a couple of slip-ups, I was hooked and couldn't believe that it was time for the play to be over when it was. The cool thing about the Tavern is that they have a full-time "staff" of salaried actors and they do non-stop shows throughout the year. Because of this, they usually only rehearse for about a week or two. You can't even tell that the rehearsal time is reduced. Unless you're there every week.
The menu is also excellent and changes every month, but they always have their apple crisp (yummy!) and a pretty good selection of English beers. How often do you find Sam Smith at a restaurant? Also, bars are manned and tables are bussed by volunteers. It's a great way to see some free shows.
It's a little more expensive, but it's a much classier date/group get-together than a movie. Also you can dress up or down. I'd say don't go any lower than a decent top and jeans. Keep it classy and leave the t-shirt at home.
I just experienced my first play at Shakespeare Tavern - Romeo & Juliet. I was very impressed with the acting and the scenery and overall, i had a really good time. However, anyone trying to make a night of it and enjoy their dinner selections should pass. Very similar to cafeteria food. Was cold and no where near authentic British cuisine. In my opinion, save your money for a nicer dinner and just go to enjoy the play!!!
I've been going to this place off and on for years. I really have enjoyed their performances of Midsummer Night's Dream, Turn of the Screw, Taming of the Shrew, The Crucible, and many others. From the outside it doesn't look like much, but once your inside your transported to a traditional Shakespearian theatre. The costumes are true Elizabethan reproductions. I especially like the English pub food such as the cornish pasty with mixed greens. It's good and its not that expensive.
Oh Shakespheare, where art thou, pimpin'? I love this place!. There is so much talent thriving on stage here it's not funny....ok maybe when they do the comedies, then it's pretty funny, but other than that... Seriously, being a former theatre performer/junkie myself, I used to frequent this place. I'd also talk my middle and high school teachers into having a field trip which ended up as...you guessed it."The Tavern". Now, I must inform you of the adult "fun" store right next to the place. I believe the place is/was Inserection. I always thought it was funny to see the teachers faces when they'd hurry us onto the busses and while we're driving off, to see the man dressed in hot pants and a tutu while twirling a baton on Peachtree St.. i always yelled out the window, " twirl it Timmy, twirl it!", which always got a rise out of my classmates. I then came to know the guy as "Twirlin' Timmy", which he responded to everytime i saw him after that. I give this place a 5 star review. Good times, Great memories, awesome baton twirlin'.....
I'M OUTIE!!! NUFF' SAID!!!
I loved it! Really loved it. The staff was great! The performance was awwesome and the food was yummy~
