First Avenue Playhouse Dessert Theatre

It was like everyone in that cozy little place were all friends.

They wanted to be sure we had everything we needed.

"You Can't Take It With You"

Outstanding.

The show was a master class in acting, set design and comedy. You don’t want to miss this.

Hilarious.

Staff was great. Looking forward to going back. Highly recommend.

"Don't Drink the Water"

This talented cast did a wonderful job of bringing Woody Allen’s 1960’s comedy to the stage of the First Avenue Playhouse! The show is a must see!! We thoroughly enjoyed opening night in this charming setting, topped off by complimentary coffee and desert! The staff is warm and friendly! A perfect venue to enjoy a relaxing evening with friends and family! Not a bad seat in the house! Looking forward to returning!
