Theatrette
Tucked away in the city, Theatrette offers an intimate, tiered setting that trades cavernous warehouse energy for close-up theatrical flair. It is the kind of compact stage where you actually see every flick of an eyelash and catching every bit of banter is guaranteed. The programming leans right into high-camp spectacle, drawing crowds for nights like Big Diva Energy and FABLE. Expect a blend of drag cabaret, interactive performance, and eclectic DJ sets that pull in an arts-focused queer crowd ready for a proper show before things unravel…
