Know Theatre of Cincinnati

We were here during the Fringe Festival. What a great little theatre!Everything is pretty darn cool. The walk from the entrance to the theater is full of interesting things.It's a very intimate theater, which is great for 'off broadway' type performances. There's not a bad seat in the house. We loved our experience here and look forward to returning.

An excellent spot for local, independent, and artsy theater. I've seen plenty of shows here over the years and while they've ranged from spectacular to just okay I've never once had a bad performance from the actors nor production values. This isn't where you're going to see spectacular special effects, but good acting and interesting stories, plays you can't see anywhere else!

The absentee was fantastic. Funny, heart tugging, serious, and thrilling. The actors did an amazing job performing and projecting the different moods throughout the play.This is a shorter play, a single act. But they packed a lot into those 90 minutes. I'd definitely recommend this.

My daughter and I drove from Dayton tonight to see Puffs. This was a great production! It's a fun show by nature, but you could tell the crew on stage enjoyed putting on the performance. We arrived early and were able to grab a drink and chat for a while before heading upstairs to the show. It's a smaller theater but allows for great interaction and you can hear and see all the players are doing. We would definitely see another production here!

Today was my first time seeing a play at the Know Theatre. I'm so glad I finally had a chance to see a performance! It's a small theatre in the downtown area. There's plenty of parking nearby and I lucked out in finding street parking in front of the theater. It's more casual than some of the other live play venues in the city. After I checked in I was told that there was a bar for drinks, a lounge area to sit while waiting for the play to start, and free coffee and sweets. The play was upstairs. There's a more intimate feel since it's so small and you're close to the stage. This play, The Absentee, had four actors and they were really good! The play and the set were interesting. I definitely recommend checking out the Know Theatre if you get the chance. I'm looking forward to visiting again in the future to see another play.

This was my first time at the Know Theatre. It's located downtown Cincinnati with meter and other parking options. There appear to be restaurants in the area as well to grab food before or after the show. Getting in was very easy. There is a bar located inside and you are able to take drinks up to the theater. There is an elevator for those who need it. Awesome show and great cast. I grew up in the theater so I am critical of shows. The cast did a great job in their various roles. I love how it all plays out in front of you and how they utilize the stage. Although there were five actors playing various parts, you were able to connect with each role being played. I would definitely return to the theater for additional shows. I did hear them mention one that stood out to me so I will be following them to support in the future.

Went to see "Twunny Fo" last night. It was my first visit to The Know. Best descriptor I can give is AWESOME! The cast put their all into the performance of the well written script. Amazing how well bits of comedy mingled with drama and some relevant issues of today's city life. Hate to say more and spoil the show for those who still want to go see this show. The theater has plenty of parking nearby, and a variety of restaurants and bars a just short walk away. Treat yourself to a great time at some fair prices and make The Know a part of a downtown Cincy evening.

Went to see"The Man-Beast" at the smaller, downstairs stage.We got Groupon tickets and paid the $10 (x2) extra at the door for the brunch prior to the show. The food was provided by Watertower Wines & Catering. Good selection of brunch morsels. All very tasty. Worth the $.Small, intimate, up close stage, interesting story, interesting twist at the end! Very, very good actors. Really pulled you into the story line. Thoroughly enjoyed it!Highly recommend this venue, They do amazing things with a small venue and budget. Well Done well worth it. Definitely going back for more! (Can't wait to see a production on the bigger stage upstairs!)

The Know Theatre is a great, casual venue for some truly outstanding performances. There are two stages here, and both provide an intimate theater experience.Our most recent visit here was to see the Man-Beast on the smaller underground stage. It was exceptionally well acted by the (only) two leads, and the stage and lighting was believable and one of my favorite sets I have ever seen.Parking is easy, and they have unusual and innovative shows. Well worth a visit, and close to places to eat and drink before or after the show.

I really enjoyed my time at The Know Theatre while attending another fun Yelp Event. This is a quaint 99 seat theatre with a nice bar located at 1120 Jackson Street Cincinnati in the Over The Rhine Area. The events held at The Know allow for an up close personal experience with these gifted actors who provide thought provoking performances. If you love the Arts, you must experience The Know!HistoryKnow Theatre Tribe The company was founded in the fall of 1997 when Jay B. Kalagayan formed a 'tribe' of artists who traveled to bookstores and venues in Cincinnati to perform original collaborative works. In 1999 the tribe took up its first residence in the basement of the church at Gabriel's Corner and produced a full season of plays.Prior to 2006, Know Theatre of Cincinnati was known as the Know Theatre Tribe and was housed in the basement at Gabriel's Corner Church, 1425 Sycamore Street in Cincinnati, OH. Know Theatre moved into its new home on Jackson Street, merged with the Cincinnati Fringe Festival, and changed its name to Know Theatre of Cincinnati in 2006.[2]
