University District · Seattle, WA · 1303 NE 45th St, Seattle, WA 98105

theater~800 cap

A restored 1921 University District movie palace run by Seattle Theatre Group, now an intimate seated/standing venue for indie-electronic, EBM, and hyperpop shows that want theater polish over club grit. It's smaller and more intimate than sister venue the Paramount but shares its STG hospitality standards.
