20th Century Theater

Theater was really awesome, parking could be tricky possibly, but was easy enough to find on a Saturday evening for a show. The only reason I gave 4 stars was two things: women's bathroom was COMPLETELY out of hand soap at about 7 o'clock in the evening. I understand these places may be understaffed, the good thing was as soon as I said something it seems like they went in and remedied the situation. BUT, and when I say but, it's a BIG BUT, once the lobby started to fill with people, IT GOT HOT. SO, SO HOT. Everybody was sweating and complaining. I heard one woman say she wasn't sure how much more she could take. It was bad, really really bad. Other than that, I'd definitely be willing to come back for a show at this theater! ....especially in the winter.

I remember seeing movies in this building as a kid, so it's really awesome to see it continuing to provide an entertainment venue. We attended a concert of several bluegrass bands headlined by Rumpke Mountain Boys on New Year's Eve 2019. On this particular night, the crowd was the perfect size. Great vibe down on the floor in front of the stage, but enough room to move around on the second tier for those that prefer a little more elbow room. The bar service was prompt, prices seem fair and the variety of beer selections is decent for a venue that isn't open every night (though no beers on tap, which is understandable for an event venue I suppose). The building is in pretty good shape, and really shows off the classic architecture well. It seemed to me like the stage area has been enhanced recently, though I couldn't be sure. This is a great neighborhood venue for live music and events. Check it out!

I definitely hope to return here as my first visit was excellent. Really like the old school vibe. Lots of seating and good sound as well.

Small venue but doesn't feel cramped. Seating is slightly tiered so sight lines aren't bad and the sound quality was good (though it wasn't a musical show so your mileage may vary). Saw the CUSS show here in late June. Bar has a standard assortment of drinks, though staff could have done a better job of taking orders or directing the amorphous blob of patrons to the other end/bartenders rather than congregating at one corner. The bathroom was clean. No parking at the theater but plenty in the area if you arrive with time to circle for a bit.

So far I've only came here for concerts/shows and all were great experience. They also have Weddings here which someday I would like to see. Building is very historical and great addition to the oakley area. My only con is the parking area. Would be nice to have their own private lot.

Love this venue for concerts. Great stage and acoustics. Every seat is a great view and it's easy to get around to bar or bathroom. When it's crowded there may be a wait but staff is courteous and quick to help. More neighborhoods need such a venue for shows and movies. Definitely feels like a small town, good ol' days location.

The owner does everything he can to support our great Republic peacefully with love. Let's support this great little gem and bring it back some luster! They are holding the line in our community- he has an open bar and a wooden dance floor- offers free movies- welcome to all!

I recently second shot a wedding here and found it to be a great venue the wedding party and provided great photographic opportunities. The grassy area directly across the street is a great place for group shots with the marquee in the background. You can also replicate the Beatles iconic street crossing by having the people do the same. The balcony area might provide some unique photos although be careful not to shoot too wide and include any unnecessary stuff like the scaffolding. The parking is somewhat limited so if you have lots of gear, plan to get there early and park in the small connected lot. Do not move your car. hopefully some nimrod will not park in such a way that you can't leave the lot at the end of the night. There area few side streets that allow for free parking if you are able to walk a bit.Lighting in the upstairs area is very dim, so you'll need to use flash or a very fast lens. The staff were very friendly and quick to help if I needed anything. One of the other photographers used wireless flashes on top of the speakers to light the dancefloor and the shots came out awesome. You'll enjoy it here.

My favorite smid size venue for concerts in Cincy. Been to a few shows here, and the sound has always been very very good.Bartenders and staff are great too, chill and not thinking they're too cool. Theatre situated in neighborhood with easy parking and wide sidewalks. Clean too!My advice is to check it out when a band's in town that half way interests you.

The perfect wedding reception venue in all aspects. Gorgeous decor and arrangement.Plenty of room on the dance floor.
