They passed out small cups of water to some people but having actual air would e been better. I hope that's not a regular occurrence. They also tried to close the doors once the main act was on stage but one worker had sense to tell them they couldn't logically close us in there with no air flow.

The Fillmore was clean, with multiple bars and free water, and at first it felt nice inside. The sound was great, but I was right in front of the stage. When the show began, it was incredibly HOT! Multiple people around me began to pass out or had to leave the venue altogether! If you are going to have a huge crowd of people and host concerts, the venue has to be properly air conditioned! They passed out small cups of water into the crowd, but it wasn't enough.

This is a beautiful theater that has a nice atmosphere. No gremlins here as far as I can tell. The…read morerestrooms are a bit outdated in the sense that there are the old small knob sinks. You'll need hand-sani after you wash up unless you turn off with a paper towel. They do have hand-sanitizer out as well. The staff were plentiful and friendly. I went to see Marc Broussard which really has nothing to do with the theater but the space is small enough to be almost intimate and yet it could still handle the louder stuff. I'd definitely come back!

Great spot for an intimate engagement. I've seen both concerts and author lectures here and both…read morefelt like I was hanging out in my living room, enjoying the event with a few hundred of my closest friends. Acoustics for concerts are good and visibility for authors is great no matter what seat you're in. Speaking of seats... They're pretty comfy and offer decent leg room (says the 5'4 chick). Be sure to look around/up while you're there. The stained glass windows are beautiful! The bathrooms could use an update, but since they're in the foyer/shared space, I'm not sure McGlohon could gut them even if they wanted to.

I recently attended the Color Purple at this quaint playhouse type of theater, which is nestled in…read morea lovely residential area. The actors were extraordinary and did not take away from the original show! They actually inspired and enhanced. The theater has all the attributes of a larger theater just down scaled. Smaller rest rooms, concession stand, and of course smaller space. I was able to see very well from row G. There is Left (L) and Right seating but with the same alphabet/numbering system, so there were a few people that was a bit confused as to where they should sit. Limited parking on the premises, but there is street parking. I would recommend support small local theatre as much as one can. They have a variety to select from as well as season passes. A great way to spend an afternoon.

Love this comedy club! They require a 2 item minimum, doesn't have to be drinks. I ordered nachos…read moreand a lemonade and that covered it. Definitely make sure to get there early so you can order and eat before the opening acts come on! We were seated with our back against our table so it was awkward to have to turn around to eat or grab our drink during the show. Nachos were MASSIVE, served on a legit platter. Like.. could feed 4 people. Next time I would ask them to sub the awful melted shredded cheese that comes with it, with queso. They have queso on the menu, not sure why it's not on the nachos. If they nachos had queso they would've been absolutely fantastic. My friend ordered an old fashion which she said was okay. And chocolate cake which she also said was just okay. Overall great spot! Just straight up the stairs when you walk in. Parking here sucks. No parking validation, just have to find a paid street spot or pay for a garage.

There really is SO much you need to know about this place they don't tell you on their web OR if…read moreyou call to ask questions. Primarily, that is this club offers the opportunity to enjoy a meal and bar beverages during the show. They did reference 'the food/drink' minimum but they don't tell what that means. Which is you must order food and drinks, two each per person. IF you order off the menu, the 'the minimum' sill applies. They give you the option of General Admission or Reserved Seating and there is about a $10 price difference but no advantage as far as your table location or proximity to the stage. When you reach the top of the stairs, check in with host desk, they scan your tix and seat you. You are not asked where you want to be seated, they put you where they want you, even if it's Reserved seating which is about $45.00. More than likely you'll be seated at a table with other people. They have an FAQ page which I highly recommend you read, otherwise you'll be blindsided and surprised but a lot of stuff. We went on a Friday and there was one show starting at 7p. They open the doors at 6p and then the host begins seating people as they enter. I noticed it's a fairly large 'L' shaped room so if you're seated at tables just as you enter, you'll be looking at the 'side' of the stage and you won't see the tables to the right but you will hear the people laughing. It's confusing because if you DON'T know the above and you want to have a meal before the show, you might think you NEED to dine in the downstairs restaurant/bar area. The difference is the menu in the Comedy club is somewhat limited though it is more than appetizers. Michelle had the chicken fajita nachos which were enormous. I had a wedge salad with grilled salmon which was very good. The service was outstanding and I never had to worry about the wait staff coming by with re-fills. We were there to see Leah Ruddick who was very funny. It turns out she was the initial performer at the first show. There were two comedians going on before Leah. The one dude who also acted as MC wearing a sparkly jacket made it clear right away he was gay. His ENTIRE routine was going into the details about 'gay life'. A lot of profanity and a lot of TMI. I didn't find it funny or entertaining learning about deviant behavior. The next act was a black lady named Kandy Kaine. Again, a lot of profanity. Turns out she is a 3rd grade special ed teacher in public schools. Her deal was talking about the challenges of her students and essentially making fun of them. There was also a bit where she asked if there were any Christians in he audience. A few raised their hand and she proceeded to ask they give her names of 'gangasta' bible characters. The first guy yells 'judas' and all her jokes were making fun of his betrayal of Jesus but Judas. Again, for me not funny or entertaining. I had seen several youtube clips of Leah before hand. She portrays a character 'the wealthy lady'. She files around the US in her 'PJ', private jet. She talks about her 13 ex husbands and her attraction to men with tiny fingers. You need to know that parking can be an issue. There is currently construction going on and there are detours, in addition there are multiple one-way streets. You must be intentional on what street you enter if you want to park in a garage. Otherwise there maybe random street parking available.

It's a small theater, and the crowd is encouraged to participate by throwing out topics or may even be asked to come up on stage and assist with a game (don't worry - they ask for volunteers). Shows typically last around 90 minutes and are BYOB, so it's a great bang for your buck! They also have drinks available for purchase right before you walk in to take your seat. By attending, you're supporting local, live theater, which is a great thing to do! Also, if you're interested in learning how to do improv and potentially performing someday, they offer improv classes for all levels.

Finally got a chance to check out this event space! The lovely folks at Lupus Piedmont hosted their…read moreannual Mardi Gras Gala here and it's such a cool event space. From the outside, I would have never expected such potential. The large building is planted very near the tracks off of Tryon & Dalton - just a few minutes from Uptown. Now, I'm sure the space varies per event, but the folks at Lupus decorated it beautifully. Tons of tables, a large bar to the right, dance floor near the stage and plenty of walking around room. Plus, there are two old train cars outside the side doors that are perfect for additional entertainment options - the event last night had a fortune teller and a bones reader in these cars. Per Extravaganza Depot's website, it looks like they are full service event planning and execution company. Capacity wise, the site reads 350 seated and 600 standing and there are adequate restroom facilities and probably 200 parking spaces (total guess here). There aren't too many well put together venues in Charlotte that host these types of numbers, but Extravaganza Depot does offer a great option!
