Primary Trust @ Mark Taper Forum…read more I really enjoyed seeing Primary Trust, a very moving play, this evening at 7pm. The theater is large & spacious. I had a third row seat that was under $40 & I could see & hear everything perfectly. In fact, because the stage is round and the seats are in an arc around it, it really doesn't seem like there is a bad seat in the house. The plaza that the theater is in reminds me of Lincoln Center in NYC, and enjoying the programming here really feels like "going out" as the area is brightly lit and festive.There are several eateries snd a wine bar in the plaza. You can also bring drinks and snacks to your seats. I'm also happy to note that the staff & ushers were all very nice. The small cast did an excellent job & even with a heavy subject, they still managed to get laughs out of us as well as many moments of absolute, reverent silence because we could feel what Kenneth was going through. Kudos to everyone who worked on this very special production. It's closing in June 28th, so go see it if you can!! Peace!

I decided to use my refund and scrambled to find a new event to do for the evening. Through my Fever app I found Avenue Q and was so excited! My son has been wanting to see this forever and I knew it was going to be fun, but had no idea it was going to be one of the best shows I've seen. Driving up, I was skeptical of the center, but once we walked in we were greeted to a beautiful lobby and kind hosts. The show itself was one of the most funny and entertaining experiences I've had in a while! These performers were beyond incredible! Thank you everyone who made my sons night special again :)

My wife and I actually first encountered much of the Wisteria Theater crew back when they were at…read morethe Cupcake Theater. We happened to catch their rendition of Avenue Q in January 2022 when we were on our honeymoon. We were blown away by the show and the talent available at such a small theater. And my wife ended up following many of those fine folks on Instagram. So when the two of us + my sister were planning a January 2026 trip to LA and noticed Avenue Q would be back for a limited time at Wisteria, we jumped at the opportunity to sort of relive that and help my sister get a similar experience. I'm happy to say that expectations were (mostly) met. Wisteria isn't much bigger than Cupcake was, maybe like 100 seats, so every seat in the house is close to the stage/actors. There were moments in the show where the cast directly interacted with me, even though I wasn't in the first row, so that was pretty cool. And an opportunity you can't get at bigger venues (for that price at least). The cast was about 50% who we had seen before, and the talent is still top notch. Everyone sounded amazing, easily matching or besting musical theater troupes we'd seen tour our home city. And everyone was well cast and suited for their roles. The costuming and puppets all seemed really good to me. Some of the puppets look quite different from what I remember experiencing before, but they all seemed to fit the characters regardless. The lighting was all well chosen and timed. And the sound mixing was mostly great, although sometimes it felt like the music overpowered the vocals a little. The backgrounds were more of a mixed bag. It's extremely obvious that AI was used to generate the backgrounds shown on the big screen. I get that Wisteria is a tiny operation running on an even smaller budget. But to be honest, the AI really left a bad taste in our mouths. My sister said she could hardly focus on the show because of how distracting the AI usage was. There were too many instances of jumbled/nonsense signs or things that were uncanny and unnatural. There couldn't have been a much bigger budget back in the Cupcake Theater days, and I don't remember a need for all the AI backgrounds/video back then (for the same show). We would honestly rather have cheesy stock photos or bad Photoshop than AI that seems to strip away the humanity that is otherwise so resonant at this lovely theater. One last small note as someone who loves the Avenue Q soundtrack: It was personally disappointing for me to hear Shadenfraude get trimmed down. The entire verse starting with "straight A students getting B's" was cut and there's instead an awkward cut where it was. Was this a Wisteria decision or something done by the original creators? I don't really understand what happened there. Again, we love your crew and the show was overall fantastic. We were so happy to take time in our trip to support a small, local theater. Keep up the great work and everyone, please give these guys a look if you love live theater!

The play was amazing, and I'd highly recommend seeing it if you get the opportunity. Big thanks to Michael K. for alerting us to the show, which we otherwise wouldn't have known about. Parking was easy and cheap, $5 for a matinee show (apparently $8 for evening). We cut it close and arrived just a few minutes before the 2:00 start time, but we were apparently in good company and got to our seats well before curtain. We were stopped just outside the theater by a group of IATSE protestors, who handed out flyers asking patrons to pressure management to give the Wallis crew a fair contract. According to this flyer (and I can't find anything else about this online), the Wallis has been bargaining with the union for six months and pays crew below standard wages for Los Angeles County. If anyone at Wallis is reading this Yelp review, consider it my email in support of the union. You're a theater named for a billionaire heiress. Pay your people. The theater was nice and the production was fantastic. Our seats were in the mezzanine, and we had a great view of the stage. Loved the set design, which involved a single classroom structure on a rotating platform. The performances were amazing, as was everything else that went into the production. I hope the Wallis does right by its crew so they can keep putting on top notch theater. I get their emails now and have not yet unsubscribed, as I'd like to know what other shows they have in the pipeline.

The one the play was in was the smaller of the two, a 40+ seat small venue. The other theatre was being prepared for another show, I presume as there were some men working on a stage and the seats there were covered with plastic. That appeared to be the main stage as there were more seats. The seats in the B Theatre were very comfortable, cushioned movie theatre style seats. The venue is so intimate there really didn't appear to be any seat that wouldn't be good. A woman was there when I entered and she marked me off the list. I bought my ticket online and it was a will call matter. She handed me a program and as with many theatres, that is your ticket. The house opened about 10 minutes before the play started. Across from where she was doing the ticketing was a small area with snacks and drinks. There are bathrooms down a hall. This is a perfect venue for staging small plays.

Burai - Standing All Alone - an original Japanese Stage Play…read more This play, written, directed and produced by Naoki Fujiyama is why I made my way to Theatre Theater one Saturday night. That and an invitation from one of the cast members. This venue is pretty intimate, in other words, small, but it allows those in the nose bleed seats to see and hear the action too, unlike other venues where you might need a pair of binoculars. Everything is definitely worn but it works and I'm sure it's how admission costs are affordable. I'm not of this world of entertainment so I can't comment on the acoustics or lighting except that everything seemed to work. Seats were ok. Not in the best condition but, I also wasn't sitting on springs or metal. As for parking - this theater is on Pico. Street parking is available - just have to find a space. Overall - the place is OK. Been to better. Been to worse.

Tickets are only $5 and include a beverage of choice in the non-alcoholic and/or craft brew family... LA Croix and Hard Kombucha... Could this be anymore LA? Don't answer that because it couldn't lol even down to the limited parking in the area. Street is recommended to avoid any towage and there is some of that especially if you arrive early. Usually only room for three chairs to a row on both sides of the theater so if you bring a friend or two you can most likely sit together as my roommate, his girlfriend and I did. Everyone was really friendly, fun and the Tarzana Boys who headlined did a great job as the MCs. There is a restroom in the backroom for before and after shows. The acoustics are pretty solid being a 25 to 30 person space. Definitely will come back and support. Solid spot for a date or just get out of the house night.
