Okay, so the seats are not too comfortable after more than an hour of sitting, but the slight discomfort is worth it. I saw a few plays there, of which the most memorable was BUG. Even when you sit in the back, it feels like you are close. The theater is located in a really nice area, close to plenty of good restaurants in various price ranges. I love Jerusalem Caffe or Hamachi sushi bar just a couple of blocks south.

The Venue
Snuggled in a bustling stretch of Wells Street just south of North Avenue amid all the restaurants, bars and framed art stores, A Red Orchid Theatre is at the end of a long, brick-lined hallway. The "lobby" is the size of a walk-in closet, but the staff is friendly, and there's a fish tank to watch as you wait in line. The theater itself, which seems to seat around 70, feels more claustrophobic than most theaters of its size because of the low ceiling. Bring a cushion: The chairs are murderously hard.
The Theater
You won't find much in the way of improv comedy or musicals. A Red Orchid seems to go in for the grittier stuff, producing plays by Eric Bogosian and Eugene Ionesco. The actors and technical staff are top-drawer.
