Etro Lounge is a neighborhood bar & lounge geared towards the social drinker where you can appreciate the unique interior in more ways than you would expect to find in some of your upper midtown establishments with an industrial twist. The lounge offers two bars, a spacious covered outdoor patio, and a more intimate lounging area upstairs. Music during the week varies from indie, electro, EDM, and 80's underground, while a DJ spins during the week and at night with the same taste in the style of music.
Join Alley Theatre, the crown jewel, where actors, designers, composers, and playwrights thrive using arts scenes on stage and produce up to 16 plays yearly, ranging from the best current work to re-invigorated classic plays. The talented cast, crew, and producers challenge themselves with different shows each season. In addition to the educational and outreach efforts each year, they encourage young playwrights, performers, and future patrons to participate and explore programs like Stage to Page, HYPE, and the Young Performers Studio.
