The Onyx Theater: Tucked away. 88 seats. One great lineup of productions.

Just before the ear gets cut off…

Onyx TheaterThe Onyx Theater was pretty awesome too. 88 seats at capacity, and normal sized popcorn at normal prices. They do all sorts of really fun shows that bring great theatrical diversity to Las Vegas. They produce shit that the behemoths on the strip never could. Our city may be famous for being risky/risque, but not so much when it comes to the live entertainment on the strip. There are just too many thousands of seats that have to get filled 10 times a week. (Absynthe, you’re the exception of course. You manage to persevere with your jaw-dropping awesomeness. High-five, Absynthe.) Reservoir Dolls @ Onyx Theater

The Onyx Theater lives in Commercial Center. For those of you who don’t know what that means, our show introduction speech included “thank you for braving Commercial Center.” It’s a really awesome, really awkward plaza with a pawnshop, a billiards club, Lotus of Siam – one of the best Thai restaurants in town, RANDOMLY ANOTHER Thai restaurant, a gay spa with rentable hookup rooms and shit, and of course, the infamous Green Door. So yeah, Las Vegas is an crazy town that can have all of this in the same plaza as the Onyx Theater. Maybe it all makes sense somehow, I dunno. Onyx did produce Hedwig this year.
