Phoenix Theater (A Project of Arts Nest) — Attraction in Minneapolis

We attended the 4:20 pm showing of Dowton Abbey tonight. It’s a nice wrap up to a great series. However, the first 20 minutes or more were made hard to enjoy by the over-riding booms and sonic thuds coming from the adjoining theaters soundtrack. Selection of what films show in adjoining houses should be given attention.

While critiquing, I should mention the roar of the air conditioning unit - and the presumed need to keep the temperature in th3 auditorium cold enough to stor3 frozen food. I’m guessing the thermostat is likel6 se5 at 68 or below. Ridiculous and not eco-friendly either.

Sound on previews is always near 100 db higher than needed. For a film reaching an older audience, thi# is very annoying.

This was such an amazing little theater, I only wish we had discovered it earlier. We went to go see the 2pm Dealing with Dragons show and it was wonderful. Kudos to the whole team who put it together and to the humans, dragons and wizards who were all fantastic. The Dragon puppets were so magical!

We parked across the street from the theater and the venue itself is nice and cozy with a small concession stand, and a seating area with board games and kids toys. We sat in the front row in the theater but the seats are staggered so should have good viewing from the seats behind as well. We can't wait to...

This is one of the best places to stage a play, for any type of show or fundraiser or whatever creative thing comes to mind.

The space is wonderful, there is the option to livestream, and Covid protocol can be put into place still.

Great alcoholic, non alcoholic, and CBD/THC beverages.

You can even bring food in from outside, no problem!

All gender bathrooms including an ADA compliant one as well.

The staff is wonderful and easy to communicate with.

Please consider this place for your next...
