Editorial Review for Re-bar – by David Schmader

The Scene
"No minors, drunks, drugs, bigots, or loudmouths," commands the sign at the entrance. Add extra admonitions against homophobes and the humorless and you've got Re-bar's funky humanist vibe in a nutshell. From the art on the walls to the home-grown celebrity DJs in the booth to the crowd-pleasing camp on the stage, it's a peerless social haven for fun-loving, artsy freaks and those who love them.

The Draw
Showing staples like Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Dina Martina, and performances from the Brown Derby Series, Re-bar has been a mainstay of alternative theater in the Seattle area. Though usually dark and noisy there's something different going on nearly every night of the week here.

Insider Tips

The Extras

From "queer recontextualizations" of Shakespeare to staged readings of schlocky horror-movie scripts, the stage is routinely graced with the edgiest smart comedy in Seattle.

Venue doesn't help in anyway to help promote shows or events!!! Spent much money on venue rental $120 for early evening slot or 15% which ever is greater and personal advertising... poor results. Bad parking area... VERY limited street parking... paid parking lot next to venue. No art on walls Staff VERY Unfriendly Staff uncommunicative when using both email and phone. Hard to tell if the venue is open.

Pros: Nice Stage

Cons: Poor Back Stage , Poor Sound, Poor Communication

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended
