Theatre At St Clements — Attraction in New York

We went to see Eisenhower at a matinee on August 12. There should be a warning that the many are steepto get to any seats in the theater or the rest room in the basement. A tall man blocked much of my view for the first act. We moved two rows back to a row that was totaly empty. A combative manager and her assistant challenged anyone who moved to an open seat. The theater was little more than half full. When we told her we would not return to a limited view seat she pointed to another seat that was equally bad. She was combative, inflexible and spoiled any joy we had in continuing watch the play. We left before the second act.We have lived in NYC since 1970 and have been to many off-broadway and off broadway theaters. The staff at St Clemens and the theater is at the bottom of of our list of awful thetare experiences.

The church roof's arches and trusses are exposed and part of the charm. Bathrooms are in the basement and the theater is two+ flights above ground level (in half flight increments), so keep that in mind before you climb...

Area is a block away from Restaurant Row. Great for a date night or just...
