The Jungle Theater Reviews

School Girls was sophomoric, like most Jungle plays.

Great local theater in a intimate space. Good places to eat nearby.

Seriously not a bad seat in the house. Consistently high quantity productions.

Cozy atmosphere. Selection of plays is biased toward women playwrights and topics. Most are boring and preachy. Recent Billie Holiday play was an exception.

It has always been good, under new leadership it is excellent, never better!

Best theater in town. Have had season tickets the last 3 years and haven't been disappointed once.

A small but nice theater in Minneapolis I saw my niece performing a play here very comfortable

Intimate setting... Wonderful for watching plays...

The Jungle Theater rocks! Saw "Ride the Cyclone" tonight. The production was outstanding and the cast was phenomenal!! WOW!!!

The Jungle Theater performances are amazing. The stories they tell by its wonderful cast of local actors are a binafide success and are better than shows I've seen on Broadway. Would highly recommend.

The Jungle is doing a great job with new artistic director Sarah Rasmussen. Every production is solid throughout: acting, set, lighting, sound. And the selection of plays each season has continued the Jungle's tradition of emotionally gripping work while bringing in some new voices

Great intimate venue! The staff was very friendly from helping us find the best seats through picking up tickets through ordering drinks and watching the show. The stage is fairly small and it doesn't seem like it seats many more than 100 people. There is a bar in the lobby, decently stocked and decently priced. There are cup holders on each seat so you can bring your drink in. The location has plenty of parking within a few blocks. I'm looking forward to another trip!

Intimate theatre. Small and close. Quirky lobby. Good people watching. Love it!

Very cool and unique theater. I was amazed at the look of the building. The show was really interesting as well. I highly recommend taking in a show here. I'm not even a big play person.

The Jungle Theater is an exceptional institution which of you're looking for an interesting, painstakingly designed, and enthralling place to experience 150-seatish intimate theater in the twin cities, this is the place to go.

EVERY play I've seen here has been a joy to watch. I love the 'down home' feel of this theater, right in Uptown! Go, there, catch a play, you'll enjoy it.

Beautiful inside. Awesome play - Lone Star Spirits.

Went to see Little Women in 2018 and it was absolutely fantastic. The entire experience from entering to exit was great. The space is intimate and cozy which allowed for just about any seat in the house to be great.

Jungle Theater is an intimate theater with comfortable with better than average size seating, providing flawless sight lines. Street parking can be crowded, but the paid lot behind the theater is ample.

Pleasant ambiance & great acting in "Miss Bennett".

I saw Little Women here and it was wonderful! It was amazing to see how much they could do with a small cast. The theater was a little cozy, but even with our seats in the very front row, I don't feel like I was missing out. This theater is definitely on my radar now!

Little Women was true to my memories of the book, and the staging was brilliant.

Great small theater with wonderfully weird productions.

Saw the play Stinkers. Really enjoyed it. The use is puppets was amazing and the cast really seemed to enjoy each other and connect.

Great venue. Small house, intimate theatre. Engaging plays and players.

Cozy theater, great acting, Excellent variety of shows

First visit yesterday. Seating is comfortable, acoustics are good. Quality of the material is high.

Terrific local theatre. Passionate actors and relaxed atmosphere.

Really cool, inclusive and local theater producing a variety of plays year round. Definitely check this place out if you're in the Lyn-Lake area. Lots of fun restaurants nearby, and pay lot parking behind the building.

We just saw The Children and it was wonderful! And the theater itself is so charming.

A small but very nice theater with a great show! Will definitely be visiting again.

Small, cozy --and gorgeous-- venue. Great site lines, too. And we loved the production; Miss Bennet is an endearing and funny continuation of Pride and Prejudice completely in the spirit of the original. A wonderful holiday experience.

My favorite theater is Mpls rn. Great date place, get ramen at motoi and a drink at volsteads speakeasy after!

I love this theater. Will always go back to see plays. The staff is always nice.

Miss Bennett is a laugh-generating romance. The perfect holiday event.

Great performance, comfortable seats with cup holders

Very intimate place. Solid shows. Good restaurants nearby. Bathrooms a bit limited especially for the ladies.

I went to the jungle to see The wolves, and it was honestly amazing. Amazing amazing. beautiful theatre, wonderful acting and it was all spectacular. The only issue I had was there was nowhere to park. The lot was small, and full, and all around on the streets were fuuuulllllll.

Nice quaint theater in the heart of Lyn-lake area. Went to see the Wickhams and it was a great play with comedy ad drama. Parking is in the rear and is a shared lot, else you will have to find street parking. If you are coming to a show, expect to come early or par far away.

I just got home from opening night of Miss Bennett and I am on such an amazing theater high! The theater is absolutely gorgeous. The acting? Superb! The story was so much better than I expected. It was emotional, it was funny, it was beautiful. This was my first time at Jungle Theater, and I am already making plans to go back. First, to see this play again. And then to probably see every other play they put on. I loved it and very highly recommend it!

I was there to see "School Girls, or the African Mean Girls Play" on a Friday night. I was thrilled to be able to take advantage of their young professionals discount. The theater itself is so comfortable! What a pleasure to be able to see the stage instead of the back of people's heads. Also, great leg room and super affordable concessions. We will definitely be back!

Gorgeous theater with a super cozy atmosphere. We saw "Miss Bennett" and it was excellent! The cast was across the board funny and the set was so well done

Jane Austen Christmas, I hope they have this show every year so we can see it again!

We recently just took our first trip to see a show at the Jungle Theater and I have to admit: I hadn't done much research into the show or the venue before going out that night.

We were blown away though -- the engaging actors and incredible writing in Fly By Night really exceeded all our expectations!!! If the Jungle Theater regularly hosts such impressive performances and casts of incredibly talented actors, we'll definitely be back!!!

So much commitment and passion for such a small theater. Brand new sets, high quality theatrical performances.

We love the intimacy of this theatre. The plays are always well done.

Went to see a play called "The kids". It was a well written and performed play. The acting was fantastic, the cast did an amazing job. The theater itself is very nice, I loved looking at the in wall 3D murals they had. Parking is in the back, or on the street, I'd say get there early to grab a spot and grab a drink at a local Brew hall. Concession attendant, Nick I believe his name was, was very nice, made us laugh and he seems very knowledgeable about the Minneapolis Theater world. Can wait to head back for another show, and maybe a laugh with Nick before the show!

The Children was one of the best written, best staged and best acted plays I have ever seen anywhere!
A superior production! Congratulations Jungle!

Great venue with lots of great plays. Comfortable seats. The view to the stage is great from just about anywhere in the theater. It's not a big theater, so it's not very crowded. Every show we've been to has been an excellent production.

Excellent small theater creates intimate experience. Highly recommend, we gone several times.

Best theater in the Twin Cities - and we have plenty of awesome theaters

Mainstay of Twin Cities theater. Professional plays at a dramatic venue.

Very cool little theater. Saw "Hand to God" and enjoyed the play and the space. The seats were roomy and comfortable. I am a hefty gent and was pleased with the hip room.

Current show is hilarious, profane, and ingenious: "Hand of God".

Comfortable and easy access. Lot of parking space!

One of the best and most reasonable theaters in town.

Neal Skoy in House of Blue Leaves- call back but he was the reason I came to this theatre.

Excellent and thoughtful production, and the theater itself is beautiful. I especially enjoyed the conversation with the actors after the show.

Wonderful performances, cozy theater, all makes for a delightful evening out.

Beautiful and comfortable small theater. Not a bad seat in the house.

Wow, what a ride. One of the best I've seen in the Twin Cities in a long time. Go see it. From staging to choreography it is an moral story that has been told over and over but this production brought a light and wonder that should not be missed.

This is time well spent. The Jungle Theatre is a delight and goes beyond expectations.

My mother has 4 noses was my first play. I loved it!

Always an interesting theatrical experience at the Jungle

I haven't been disappointed in a performance at the Jungle Theater yet, and I've been going for quite a few years.

First time at Jungle Theater and we had a lovely evening. The Bennett Christmas show was well done- myself, my husband and 16yo daughter all enjoyed the play. Hope to see more in the future!
