Absolutely wonderful theatre with stellar performances. My favorite experience was watching an immensely delightful rendition of Dorothy L. Sayers’ novel, Whose Body? In 2019 at Lifeline. The effect of observing Sayers’ characters in person as they solved a mystery was the catalyst I needed to reinterpret the story. Most entertaining!

Larger than a storefront theater, smaller than a regular one. The company specializes in ingenious and fun adaptations of cult books, Cat's Cradle in this case. If you enjoyed the books, the performances are wonderful.

If you haven't read the book, you might be scratching your head, but still admire the sheer weirdness of the attempt. In this one, some of the special effects scenes were done by the actors playing with dolls

Very quaint theater house! If you blink you will miss it but once you get inside it is so worth it! It seats roughly 100 people. The decor is very artistic. Even the ladies room was a mix of old and new. They repurposed beautiful old cabinets and the latest in bathroom hardware which made it very refreshing. The play Mississippi Delta was fabulously done with a 3 woman cast that were awesome singers and were so skilled in their art! It was the type of play that starts in a small theater and ends up on Broadway.

I can hardly wait to attend a full performance. My first and only visit was a peak into "The Man Who Was Thursday" on Jan. 20. We were treated to one act, then discussions with Bilal Dardai (who adapted Chesterton's novel), Jess Hutchinson (director), and the cast. Everyone was professional, friendly, delightful. FYI Sataff are aware the ramp into the building is a bit slick. If the the theater is chilly, blankets are provided!
