First time at the Know Theater. Came to see my brother, Bil Lepp, at the Cincinnati Storytelling Festival. Seats about 75 people. Had 2 other storytellers too. All 3 were great. Had the audience laughing and involved. Great and intimate theater. Staff a friendly and helpful.

My favorite theatre in town, so much so that I began donating annually in 2016 and joined the Board in 2022. High quality, competitive price point, and a terrific community.

Killer venue with multiple stages. Always a good time, whether it's an Alphas show or one of dozens of shows during the Fringe Festival (and the list goes on). If you're into local arts/theater, this is a must!
