The Basement Theatre Reviews

Love the G rated show - makes Family Fun night really funny!

An entertaining night ful of laughs, cheap alcohol, and good spirits.

Great comedy, good atmosphere, performers, SFX, and bar all great!

Great place for laughter. Check it out and enjoy. Yes. Its in the basement

The best random fun I've ever had. We took an improv class there that was masterful.

We had a great time! We laughed so hard, I love how the include the audience for the show for suggestions. But I guess that's what improv is all about.

This place is awesome! Looking for a great 1st date? Go here!

Great place for improv. Stayed for two shows. Pg for the kids and an adult show.

We had a great time. The drinks were strong and reasonably priced. We went on a Thursday and our ticket price was based on what we rolled on the dice, which was a pretty fun concept. The venue was small but had character. This place is a must see!

If this not a cool lil ducked off spot. If u looking to experience something new this spot for you trust me!

Every time I have been to the Basement Theater I have a blast. J Star and the rest of the staff are extremely friendly and fun.

Great time had by all...Friendly crew ran a great show!!! ... Awesome bartender Logan!

Always a great show, and always completely original and unique.

This is a great comedy club to go out of your way to get to if you live in Atlanta. The group of comedians definitely click with each other and have obviously been working together for a long time. The atmosphere is great. It's a small, intimate space and they aren't afraid to call on anyone. My girlfriend and I had a great date night there! I definitely will go again!

Great people - such a fun night - can't wait to go back

Pretty good improv but expect a bit more amateurish performance vs. Whole World. Convenient entertainment for OTPers.

Glad to have found this little treasure in Atlanta.

Extremely Small, intimate venue. Perfect for beginners and seasoned acts. It's comfortable and fun.

Very intimate setting. Attended special comedy show. Had a great time.

Funny group of improve guys! Both the family and adult shows were entertaining and enjoyable!

Hilarious crew and super involved with the crowd. Can't wait to go back!

Great place to see shows and take classes! The second you walk in there, you are a part of the Basement family and they make you feel welcome. This is also probably the cheapest place in Atlanta to see improv shows or take improv classes, they are well worth it.

This place is great! Awesome show and kickass classes. Deffinitely check it out.

The basement is fun and definitely delivers on entertainment.

We went to last Friday's 10 pm show and we had the best time! Great drinks, awesome atmosphere and the comedians were hilarious!! My cheeks were hurting by the end of the night! Will definitely be back!!!!

This place is a blast! Definitely recommend for an interesting and fun date night

I didn't know what to expect and boy was I pleasantly surprised, super funny and super cheap

So much fun. They were awesome with my granddaughter. Best time in a very long time.

Great prices and very funny would highly recommend to anyone!

Surprise fun. Went w family. All had a blast. Recommended.

Truly enjoyed the improv. It is a small place that allows for a more intimate experience and crowd involvement.

I went with a group of friends. I enjoyed the improv but this is not for the light of heart as nothing is off limits.

Very funny group of folks. Always enjoy going there.

My husband and I had the best time. The guys were so nice and friendly.

Fun experience when visiting Atlanta, would deff recomend!

So fun! Had a great time with my husband. Loved the style and everyone was super nice and hilarious! Can't wait to go back and take friends!

Awesome group, so funny. Highly recommend checking them out! They make sure to include every audience member in some way, which ends up being hilarious. I really love that they have family-friendly shows -- hard to find in the improv world!

The show was great and the staff were very friendly

Good variety of house improv players. See a show, have a drink, take a class!

While visiting Atlanta, I attended a 10pm show on a Friday night. The entrance to the performance room was tucked in behind a building. The performance seats about 50 guests. The show was sooooo funny! Everyone was having drinks (not expensive at all), and participating in picking themes for the improv team. The late show is probably not for kids... But for adults who enjoy a lot of witt, creative thinking, inappropriateness (in the best way possible), and hilarious dialogue. If you enjoy 'Whose Line Is It Anyway?', come and watch this show!

They are very exciting, I took my bf there for his birthday and they announced it and kept his engaged the throughout the show! Also kid friendly.

A fun, unique experience for sure. This was my first true improv show (I typically go to stand-up comedy). They are very talented individuals and no show is the same since they use information given to them from the audience. I was very impressed with how witty and funny the cast was. I didn t consume any alcohol but I hear the drinks are strong and it s pretty cheap. There s no food here except candy (skittles, airheads). Definitely eat before or plan ahead. The show was about 2.5 hours or so. The 10:00 show is for adults but they do have a kid friendly show at a different time. Overall a fun unique experience in a very intimate setting. Everyone should try this place at least once.

Such a great time!!!! Can t wait to go again and bring friends and family!

Always have a good time. Great staff and great comedians. Never a dull moment!

It's a very intimate spot and possibly the best money I have ever spent on a Saturday night! Cant wait to go back!

Their PG-13 Improv show had me laughing the whole time. Also, the atmosphere is great. The small venue makes the show feel personal, and open to audience influence. Do make sure to buy tickets early as they can sell out, and arrive 15 minutes early to make sure your party can sit together.

Fun Atmosphere! Super Funny Comedians, cheap yummy drinks beer, wine, themed cocktails, candy. I have been both times has just made date night really special and fun without breaking the bank. We will be back. Improv at its finest nothing fancy just straight comedy!

This place SUCKS! I can't even believe it's been around for 12 years? No wonder I never heard of it until this past weekend. It was so horrible my husband and I left during intermission and trust me that was the longest 30 minutes of my life!

I understand improv comedy is tough, but there is just no substance here! Went to the R rated 10pm show and it was filled with TEENAGERS! Shouldn't that be an 18 and over show? The staff ended up turning it into a G rated show at best.

3 of the 4 guys on stage were pretty funny... the guy who looks like mac wasn't my fav....

Really fun time. The crew is very funny and the show is very interactive.

Hilarious improv comedy show .Went for my birthday with hubby. It is a small intimate scene where the actors know your name and take your suggestions for skits. The ambiance was nice and they even sell snacks and drinks. So glad I found this fun little spot!

I had such a great time while visiting Atlanta due to this place! The tickets and snacks/drinks are well priced and the content was phenomenal. Yes, they are located in a basement so at first it may seem a little odd wandering in there but once you enter the staff is very welcoming. I would love to come by again because they truly made my night.

Had a great time! I saw Steve Hofstetter, Brett Druck, and Jarret Berenstein live which was amazing and also met a customer from my job who was one of the Barmen and does improve there. Went on a date and my fiance had a great time 20000001/10 experience

At the suggestion of a friend we came here on a Friday night. The performers were hilarious and we can't wait to go back!

My husband and I went for date night. Wanted to try something new. Maybe improv isn't for us. It was more silly than it was funny. Cute concept though. And clean the bathrooms...the smell hits you as soon as you walk in the door.

Great talent. If you want to have a laugh definitely check them out!

The Late night Improv was way funnier than i expected. I cannot wait to go back.

Hilarious, loved it. Best 8$ entertainment in the whole damn City.

Had a great time, the performers here are hilarious!

Great experience will definitely be back here. The drinks were affordable and the comedians got the audience involved the whole time.

Best place ever, and fun for the family. Not too raunchy and not at all boring. GO NOW! They offer a great selection of snacks, beverages, beer and spirits, along with FRESH improv comedy!

Very nice and funny. Drinks well worth the $4; not watered down.

Loved seeing people perform on stage with no script, just pure improv, was surprised at Gavins ability to remember what he did for each sign language, he certainly has talent.

Love this place! J-Star and the crew are hilarious!
