The Art House brings Broadway-worthy talent in from New York every summer, as well as maintaining a roster of in-house acts that have developed their own following. Big names like Neil Patrick Harris, Andrea Martin, Cheyenne Jackson and Megan Hilty are often on the marquee, and tickets go for around $60. Seating can sometimes be a little iffy - the management has been known to put folding chairs in the aisle - but this is easily one of the best live theaters in town. A small cafe with a vivacious crowd is next door for pre- or post-show drinks. Showtimes vary.
