The seating is comfy and lights and sound were great. I attended "Plume" from local playwright Mike Rice as part of the KC Fringe Festival 2022 on it's opening night. A 5 actor ensemble that was a no holds barred 45 minutes of intense drama featuring adult language and violence - Excellent! Keep the kids at home!

The Coterie is one of my favorite theaters in Kansas City. The productions are always outstanding,…read moreand the staff is consistently friendly and welcoming. I've been several times and have enjoyed a variety of shows. While many of the performances are geared toward children, adults will enjoy them just as much. If you catch an early show, be sure to get your parking validated, it covers parking for the entire day, giving you plenty of time to explore the surrounding area afterward.

You know what is the best sound in the entire world?…read more The sound of children laughing. The happiness of youth, giggling and smiling, eyes full of wonder and laughs full of joy. It's all the better when the source of their mirth is in three dimensions versus on a screen (not that some of that isn't funny). It's even exponentially better when the action is not only in front of them but AROUND them. I accompanied my lovely teacher wife's 4th grade to the Coterie for a field trip. A talented troupe of young performers put on a version of 'A Wrinkle in Time', a fabulous fantasy story that this group of 4th graders had been reading to start the school year. To see their faces as the story in which they had invested so much time come to life was phenomenal! The fact that not only can audience members (mostly children) sit SO close to the stage but that some of the action happens out IN the audience is chef's kiss! The actors keep the audience engaged and somewhat mesmerized and since there is no photography allowed, everyone's attention span is much longer. Even the 'special effects' are well-done, from lighting to very creative costume design. There is not a bad seat in the house and tickets are pretty affordable. You can get concessions there or maybe even save your appetite for Fritz's or the candy shop across the way. If you're there during the week, then don't be surprised if there are groups of kids with chaperones (like us!) or maybe a day camp or two in the summer. And if you park in the Crown Center garage, then be sure to get your parking ticket validated, if not at the Coterie then at a shop inside. Great experience and great value!

Some of these places host special events, like we saw big party for New Year's celebration. They also closed many of the roads for the crowd. Most of the shops are individual stores and mostly local brands. There are lots of street and garage parkings available. Parking rates vary depending on events. The street car also runs through the area. The area seemed clean and safe in general but we saw some shady individuals standing in street corners around night time.

I went with a bunch of friends to watch the US Men's Soccer Team during a World Cup Watch Party and I was not disappointed. The vibe and energy there are spectacular and the selection of bars surrounding the area are great. It's set up that no matter where you are, you have a solid chance at seeing whatever is being performed on the stage area or on the big screen. We had a blast and I think that is going to go down as one of my best non-stadium soccer experiences I've ever had.

The actors, director and the other tech people had a wonderful work of literature to present, and they did it proud. I also see many professional theater productions, including in New York and London, and this production equaled all that I have ever seen. There were about 30 people in the audience during my Sunday afternoon performance, but the actors gave their all, as if they were playing in a major theater on Broadway. This is probably the 8th production I've seen at OCT, and they have all been top quality performances.

The lobby is dark but comfortable with worn couches (like a living room). Everyone was quite friendly. The play was ok, not my favorite but this is a review of the space and not the play. The seating for the theatre was good and comfortable. There wasnt a bad seat in the house. and the stage was a nice size and well lit. They served drinks and popcorn too. The bathrooms are upstairs and single use so during intermission there was quite a line which I could see being an issue at times. We didnt get to see a show in the "Living Room" I think it sounds interesting and I would like to try it. Its a quaint theatre and everyone working was super friendly.

The experience is easy to follow. You wear a wristband and scan it throughout different themed rooms as you explore. I loved how immersive it was, with puzzles, games, interactive activities, and lots of great photo opportunities. There are mirrored rooms and movie theater and my favorite was the 1990's nostalgia room. They also have a pizza restaurant, gift shop, speakeasy bar, arcade, and live entertainment every hour, which made it easy to enjoy your time there. I ordered a cocktail at the speak easy and it was just okay. Overall, I thought $40 was a little more than I expected to pay, but I appreciated that it wasn't overcrowded and there was always something fun to discover in each room. I'd definitely recommend it if you've got two hours to burn.

Atlas 9 is a combination of movie theater (extra cost), art installations, interactive puzzles, a…read morefew costumed characters, small performances, arcade games (for extra cost), and foods/drinks (for extra cost). It fills a niche spot that KC did not have prior to Atlas 9's arrival. I would say that although you can bring children here, the puzzles are geared more toward adults due to their complexity and where things are physically placed (higher than waist level for some). Children can still enjoy the whimsy/weird interactive environment and play in the arcade though. You could spend a whole day here if you wanted to be a completionist and read every single clue to complete the puzzles correctly, or choose to skip the puzzles altogether and spend about 3 hours just going through all the different rooms and watching their small performances (a couple dancers, an aerial silk artist, a saxophone player). Your experience could be greatly affected depending on how busy it is though, since the puzzle stations often require each person to spend some time there, creating a line of people waiting to use the station. It can be kind of pricey at: --$40 per adult --$20 per child aged 3-12 --$25 per adult WYN county --$15 per child WYN county --$25 per "hero" if you're a teacher, nurse, EMT, firefighter, police officer, active military, or veteran --$25 per senior aged 60+ However, on Tuesdays, tickets are "Half Off:" --$20 per adult --$15 per child aged 3-12 (not truly half off) --$17.50 per adult WYN county --$12.50 per child WYN county (not truly half off) --$17.50 per "hero" if you're a teacher, nurse, EMT, firefighter, police officer, active military, or veteran --$17.50 per senior aged 60+ There is plenty of free parking in their private parking lot. Tickets are for timed entry, and they ask that you simply arrive within 30 minutes of your scheduled time. Overall, I'd recommend this place on a Tuesday if you've never been. However, I felt like it was something that would probably only be worth visiting once unless they continuously changed the rooms/environment.
