Saw the George Clinton farewell/retirement tour here last night and had a great time with my wife and a friend! Security in was easy and friendly, and security in the venue was very relaxed. Had two police officers wandering the whole time. The decor was interesting, with trippy brickwork all over the place, chandelier lighting, and the bar has cool lighting too. Bar wait wasn't too bad for an average-sized venue bar. Outdoor smoking area near the left of the stage was convenient. Bathrooms are upstairs in the corners; Seven women's stalls and two or three men's, I believe my wife said?). Sounds was definitely muddy at times but could've been the sound guy? Crowd was varied -- Older folks in their 60s and 20-somethings all giving it up for the funk! Cool venue and I'd gladly return!

Great place with super helpful staff. Security is strict which makes me feel safe and secure while enjoying the music and is also a nice peace of mind with the tragedies that have happened in venues. The managers are always eager to help and the venue itself is super cool. The bathrooms have the most interesting sinks, over all a wonderful place to visit and experience live music. If I could give more stars than just 5 I would.

Saw a show here and it was a blast. Sounded great everywhere. It's a smaller venue so you can see the stage very well pretty much everywhere. I was on the balcony and saw the artists on stage no problem. The two bars are cool. And the bartender was nice and make a great drink. I would go again.

This place is wicked cool. Seriously. Saw Andrew McMahon for the Pen and Piano tour. The decor and style inside this theater is something to remember. Even the bathrooms were some of the most unique and epic restrooms I've been in. I can't think of a bad thing to say about this venue so how's this: Just go see a show here and you'll know what I mean. Simply awesome.

Such a fun venue! It is visually fun (especially the bathrooms!) and open enough that it doesn't feel cramped. It's nice to have the option of couches along the side or bar stools in the balcony along with standing room on the floor. I will keep my eye open for other events at The Varsity just so I can visit again!
