The Yale Cabaret is part of the well-known Yale Drama School. It is located in the basement of one of the Yale Buildings. They do a wide variety of productions -- from musicals to new plays. Most of the actors come from the School of Drama -- so the acting is usually top quality. It is more of a dinner theatre with tables and chairs as opposed to traditional seating. Drinks and food are reasonably priced and good. The downside is that it can be crowded and sometimes warm -- but if you're looking for something different -- try it. They do quite a few production throughout the year and admission is very reasonably priced.

In a city like New Haven where Tony award winning theatres are all over the place, the Yale Cabaret is a great find for those seeking fresh theatre and a nice Caesar salad. The Yale Cabaret has two seasons (Term year and summer) which consist of an all student (mostly Yale but not necessarily) cast and management. Since it's cabaret you will also find a delicious rotating full menu to accompany your theatre evening. Every week is a new piece and although most of the time you'll not have heard of the work it's always interesting and worthy of your time. Call ahead for reservations as it's almost always sold out.
