The Basement has now opened up the studio upstairs, which is great as it means we can see even more great shows at The Basement, A lot of good stuff happens here- from professional to more experimental work. Luckily, the toilets have just been updated (thank god!) so the experience now is even more "comfortable".
I have been going to the Basement for years and seen some great shows. Really well setup for intimate shows, so you really feel part of the performance. Some really quality performers make it a great night out! Went for the recent comedy festival . . . and having the Taco truck outside was a great touch. Keep it up guys
Had an amazing time at TJ McDonald last night...he was hilarious! Had never been to the basement studio before but it was pretty good for an intimate venue...Definitely a good place to keep an eye on in future...cheers localist! For some reason this gave me no points.Just seeing if I can change that
It is a fantastic intimate space. The staff here are friendly and service with a smile went here for a Greg Ellis show. Mexikai at the back is a good touch. The only lil complaint I have is when we were at the show it was extremely hot in there. No ventilation so a few of us were sweating and uncomfortable.
