The Lab Theater

Went here for a theater performance, and it was absolutely beautiful.

One of the coolest venues in Minneapolis! While waiting in line to pay for parking a very nice person of The Labs staff came over and said we could pay for parking inside at the box office, saving time and us from waiting in the cold. Over all a great experience and a beautiful venue!!

The building is nice, it's auditorium is wonderful however, it has a large staircase so anyone with a fear of heights might want to avoid more than others

This is a great space to throw an intimate show. It is a three story room with excellent sound and lighting. Elevator access for people in a wheelchair. Seating is unnumbered general access with some tables used for VIP. They have a table top beverage sales area where they serve beer, wine, soda, and water.

Cool space. I was here for a burlesque show, the acoustics were good and no problem with seeing the performance.

Easy to find in the North Loop. Parking right across the street. Enjoyed the family friendly production of The Knife before Christmas by the Danger Committee. Very fun and entertaining.

We came here to see the Danger Committee after catching their act at the Ren Fair. It was even better here and we had a great time. Parking was easy and the venue was nice. You do sit pretty close together though. Great show.

Fun theater space. Feels very high end, but shows are usually inexpensive.

Great atmosphere. Perfect staging for the show I saw. Great music and staff was outgoing!

Saw Sueno by Pangea. Amazing! If u get a chance please go! Very well done!!!

Had a wonderful time here. Was about to watch high school composers works be performed here. Excellent intimate setting.

Came here for a play. Location is nice and in the city. Staff are very nice and helpful. Plays at this location are enthralling and poignant. Seats are a little uncomfortable however.

Very unique Art performances. Specializing in avant garde style performances. Experimental, different and occasionally brilliant

My daughters dance recital was on the lab. It was a good venue with good seating, sightlines, and sound.

The space is very versatile. Being there it feels very spacious and open which is fantastic. The staff there was nice and there parking system was interesting and easy to use. If I got the chance to view something at the Lab again, I would.

Wonderful venue with a unique backdrop and staging.

Saw a show put on by the fabulous Aaron Rice, Emily Blacik Joos and Renee Starr with dancers from MYDT a couple weeks ago. The venue was superb as well as the staff. Loved the whole night!

An interesting, black-box type of theatre in Minneapolis. A wide variety of different shows

Acoustics need a little help but the production of Odysseus was great!

Such an amazing venue to both watch a show and perform in one.

not only is the venue really aesthetically pleasing but the people working up front were absolutely wonderful with working with my family when we needed a special accommodation. amazing place

Amazing all around !! Such awesome shows with great casts. High quality, fun, heartfelt productions!!

It's just a theater in the warehouse district and one parking lot. Come early for your show.

This was an awesome space and I would love to reach out to the theatre to see if I can use this space for a production.

We took our 5 year olds to see the Danger Committe at the theater. The venue space was open and pleasant although the risers were a little uneven and easy to trip on. It's also subterranean so keep in mind that walking up and down stairs will be necessary, however an elevator is available The staff was very friendly including the box office, ushers and bartender. There were just enough options at the concession stand to satisfy. There was an irritating issue with one of the lapel mics but it could have been due to a placement issue. The Danger Committe was great and I think we might need to make seeing them an annual tradition.

Went for "feast of the fools", it is an amazing place. Accessible to physically handicap.

Easy to access theater. Hint, if you park in the lot across the street. Park in the spots labeled LAB, you can then pay for your parking in that theater, instead of paying at the pay machine outside.

The Lab is a great theater space. Very versatile. This is what theater is all about.

The Lab is a gorgeous historic venue suitably located in the warehouse district. With stunning original architecture and seating & lighting to please all, you definitely shouldn't miss it!

Most seats close to stage. Sord throwing show was entertaining.

Seating is set up with a good viewing angle so stage can be seen. Row spacing is good so people can walk by. Hang up coats, there is no room to hang on your chair.

My only problem was that the restroom is upstairs and everyone was on the bottom level

Nice theater I performed there. Good lighting and sound. The air conditioning was not so good. Overall it's a decent place.

Fun place, could've been more organized for guests , bars...

I highly recommend the show The Knife Before Christmas! Great show and I love the entertainment surrounding the knife throwing!!!

Crash Dance Productions had an amazing performance here, and it was at least partially due to this gorgeous venue. I'm excited to come back and see some more performances in the Lab Theater.

This theater is fantastic. I have done three shows here and I just saw Spring Awakening tonight. Don't walk, run to the Lab to see this show. The cast is outstanding under the direction of Ryan Nielson, who I had the pleasure of sitting next to. Also got to chat with Mara Currens. What a sweet and incredibly talented young lady. I will definitely be seeing it again next weekend before the three week run ends. That is all, carry on.

Great Mpls theater hosting wonderful companies such as the fabulous Interact Center. I highly suggest checking out 'Feast of Fools' and really anything at the Lab Theater. A really wonderful arena for live performance.
Enjoy!

Great space. Versatile and affordable. Wonderful art takes place when The Moving Company takes the stage.

Very cool building and excellent parking! Loved the show we saw as well

This place was amazing! Me and several friends went and saw their shows, "Arden Of Faversham" and "Much Ado About Nothing," and, I must say, they were brilliant!!!! "Arden" was so depressing, and I've never seen it before but, the way they preformed it, along with the twist ending, made me fall in absolute love with the play! The actress portraying Alice in particular stood out to me and the way she showed shock and horror and grief absolutely yanked at my soul!!!! And I can't even express how enjoyable and hilarious their production of "Much Ado" was!!!! I got strong "mamma mia" vibes from the setting and clothes, but I also feel that the same things, along with the staging and the physical comedy itself added so much to their performance!!! I also adored the actors who played Benedict and Don John, as their portrayals were nothing less than hilarious! I hope to return to see more performances here in the future!

Had a great time there. The burlesque show was awsome. Plus the vip ticker were not that expensive.

Not the most luxurious of seating, but incredible raw space

SUPER COOL VENUE! Theatre space has a gorgeous, underground, industrial vibe. Audience seating is nicely terraced, so theres no bad seat in the house!

My husband, daughter and I had the privilege of seeing Light the World in December. The entire performance, from the DJ and lighting to the tap dancing and singing was top notch. The theatre is beautiful. The stories told through song, dance, hoop, and aerial art were extremely moving. I am usually quite reserved, but I absolutely loved this show. We will definitely be back!

A little warm but watching my brother in law perform in Shoma, priceless!

Awesome, open setting, in a refubished industrial space, for experimental theater at its best.

Love the Burlesque shows here from Elektra Cute Presents!

Rented the space. Had a great experience leading up to the day of rental but when it came down to it it was not what I paid for, quite literally, when discussed. One of the managers was incredibly rude, dismissive, and hard to handle. It would have been able to be rectified if I was reached out to afterwards with an apology for this amongst other things, like having to let myself in without any clue of where lights were, sound, etc....which was the reason for renting this over the southern. Love the space itself so much, though, wish it worked out. If I, somehow, get a response from this then I would be willing to consider changing my review.

Saw an amazing show here. Everything was clean and we'll organized

I wonderful unique venue with a long history of unique shows!

Great space!! We attended the Cabarave show there and loved it. Great performance by great artists, beautiful space, and affordable beverage.

No curtains on this stage. The dancers warm up in full view of us all. It was gorgeous to watch

Was at the Lab Theater to watch the Danger Committee. Great holiday show. The Theater was nice, not sure how other performances do at this location.

They made me pay for parking during my 4 shows like what the hell who does that.

We were there for the Danger Committee Christmas show. It was great, as always. The venue is largish...but the bathrooms are near the entrance at the top. The seating is in the dungeon many steps below. Remember that.

Nice open theater. The show Danger Committee was awesome!

The Danger Committee is the best act around. Entertaining from start to finish.

Attended the concert, it was an awesome experience. Special mention to Will Zachery and Vanessa for such awesome performance. Had complementary champagne and dessert. It was delightful.

We were absolutely delighted by The Moving Company's production of What If on the last day of its run. Such a cool theatre space too, like a blank canvas primed for painting with words and action. We'll definitely be back.

Open industrial type theater space, not a bad seat in the house though.
