the steep and thorny way to heaven

"The production I viewed here, Diamonds and Frogs, was a modern take on classic mythology, and spurned on by the taciturn actors brought to great resolution."

"Amazing little venue with delicious drinks, great performers, and excellent hosts/staff who volunteer to make it all possible. Everything is cash only so come prepared and tip well if possible to help these guys continue putting on great events! We had so much fun and cant wait for the next #Nightcarnival!"

"One of the bright spots in the Portland underground art scene. The genuine article, a bohemian gem hidden among the bridges and warehouses of the eastside industrial district. Beautiful, intimate, heartfelt performances on stage, an audience of costumed misfits and mad artists, a cocktail bar with an ever-changing menu... I can't recommend it enough. There's still room for you on the dance floor. Come join the fun."

"An intimate & quirky arts space that feels welcoming to their patrons and supportive of their artists. More cities should have these kind of 'underground' venues."

"Hauntingly beautiful venue hosting diverse avant-garde acts: music, movement artists, contemporary vaudeville, etc., as well as absolutely innovative and engrossing theater. I loved, loved, loved their Halloween carnival. Open, safe, and respectful space, too."
