Theatre in the Round is venue that I have waited since 1995 to visit. I know that if I were a true blue theatre patron, I would have gone much sooner, but I’m done dwelling on that. I have now been to Theatre in the Round and it was as magical as I imagined it would be.
Housing 245 seats, it’s an intimate theatre experience that practically sets you in the middle of the action. The typical theatre trope of “play to the audience” doesn’t work in this setting. This theatrical experience is character-encompassing and the audience members are welcomed eavesdroppers.
Theatre in the Round began in the 1950s and has been in their current location –which was formerly a furniture warehouse — since 1969. The design team of the original Guthrie (the one that was over by Walker Art Center) created a stage where the entire audience encompasses the entire story.
