Okay, I loved this place not because the theaters are great. They're a bit low budget, with small spaces circuitously reached, and the lobby is literally a postage stamp. (I use "literally" wrong, okay?) But the spirit of this place is infectious. The shows are invariably small and usually fun, and the performers -- most of whom seem very happy to have finally reached New York -- often meet up with the audience in the bar afterwards. This is a very un-New York theater I'm happy to visit whenever I can.
