Suggestions for Performing Arts Venue near U-Street, Washington

Vesper A. • October 25, 2017Recently renovated, the Lincoln Theatre is a lovely space for performances that is convenient to Metro. It’s also next door to Ben’s, and the mural.

Sonja S. • October 26, 2014Small theater; great new plays. "Absolutely! (perhaps)" was oddly intriguing (maybe)

Melissa G. • December 21, 2016Really cool place for a show. Try to get there early for the upstairs stools. Overall, very fun! Bathrooms were also very clean (at least early on).

Kimberlyn F. • July 8, 2013The Gospel Brunch was wonderful!!! The food was very tasty, especially the catfish fingers and apple cobbler. The singing by Harlem Gospel Choir was amazing!!!!! I will def be back.

Metro Weekly • December 16, 2011WIT's Seasonal Disorder is a tradition during the holiday season. Take a break from the shopping with some great improv.

Gladys K. • June 15, 2014Kelewele is amazing. The beef and chicken kebabs are so yummy. Great food all around and you can't beat the live reggae.

Adam S. • October 29, 2017My favorite D.C. venue. Sound is always good, easy to get a drink (w/o the price gouging of 930/Anthem), and even avoids getting claustrophobic on the sold out shows.

Sean M. • August 27, 2023Great jazz but be hungry and come with some do

Maboud E. • July 21, 2011Take in a show. Constellation is a wonderful theatre company doing bold and daring work! Their space is in The Source so look for the green marquee!

Megan M. • August 23, 2012Love this venue! Austere but intimate. Highly recommend.
