The Apollon

Attended Holiday at Hogwarts here. What fun! Your ticket even comes with a wand you pick(well, the wand picks you, right?) at Hogsmeade across the street. Ok meal with fun theme drinks. The drink are a bit pricey - concert venue rates. The actors did a great job and stayed true to characterful night. We will be back!

So I haven't put up my review I wanted to do from my first yelp elite event here about a year ago, which was actually 4 stars, but tonight pushed them up to 5 stars! They have really come a long way in a year's time and their current show about the Titanic (April 2015) was so amazingly done! The characters that you're asked to be are real passengers on the Titanic and they served the exact dessert that was served to first class passengers the day the ship sank (which was actually the anniversary date of the night we went). It was so good we are thinking of going back to sit in the "steerage" section instead of first class to check it out from another perspective! Both times we have been there the food is excellent and the price is pretty good for a 3 course dinner and a show! Oh and we got our own stereo card picture for $5 as a souvenir at the end of the show too!

March 31, 2016.Just got my tickets! 5 Stars awarded in Pre-event review. What a novel concept! I'm attending the dinner/performance of "RMS Titanic: This bitch is going down!" on April 23 with 4 friends. I'm very excited about it and thought I'd give all you Yelpers a heads up about my upcoming review. Stay tuned!

My friend did a show in the space and the owners were very helpful. Sort of a small space unfortunately but very functional and unique. The space allows you be very creative with all the aspects of a show. Creates a very intimate atmosphere between actors and audience.

The event that I attended at the Apollon was a blast (it was the open mic event that takes place every Tuesday at 8:00pm***correction: the open mic is no longer an event that takes place here). The people that performed as well as the audience members were all so much fun & there was a tremendous amount of talent. While I appreciate that the event was free to attend, the drinks were insanely overpriced. It cost $6 for a rum & Coke served in a very small glass (& it wasn't heavy on the rum). Also it took almost 10 minutes for our drinks to be made & there wasn't a line or anything that I could see that would have caused it to take so long (they don't make the drinks in front of you- there's a small desk that you order from & then they disappear in another room to make it). I also saw the performers get "in trouble" a few times for drinking water that they brought water bottles into the venue (because the Apollon sells water). I found this to be incredibly disrespectful & petty. I found the event to be fun but the actual venue was unfortunate. The location is also far from ideal & there is no parking at all (unless you get lucky & can park directly on Vinton, you're going to end up walking a few blocks in an unsavory part of town).

Saw some amazing art-mixed media and poetry tonight! Loving the ideas Mike McGuire has for the local community!

Honestly enjoyed the event "it's all Greek to me" . Had such a blast ! The performance , the food and drinks as well . I'm looking forward to their future events .

The Apollon is a super amazing space for art of all kinds. I have had the privelidge of performing music here as well as attending several art sessions. Every time they always impress me with their staff and entertainment!

We went there for Alice and Wonderland! The food and the show were amazing! Highly recommend this place

I have attended two shows at the Apollon: Titanic and Dr. Seuss. I love the concept of the interactive dinner shows and I think they do a nice job with the space they have. Sometimes the forced interaction/improv feels awkward. And the acting is so-so.The food is what really needs improvement at the Apollon. From the strange combination of flavors to the less-than warm temperatures to the over-all quality, there is a lot that is left to be desired. The service is slow as well...two or three people trying to clear and serve the entire place isn't good enough. Drinks take forever although they are reasonably priced.I want to keep trying this because I think it's a great idea in a neighborhood that needs some attractions. One more chance on the food and if it's not better I'm giving up.
