I've never seen a bad show here - but then again I don't listen to crap music. That being said there are a ton of awesome acts that play the Gothic and you can really get up close and personal with them.
I like that there are many levels of seats or standing options. The upstairs balcony is off the hook but if you want a space on the railing you gotta show up hella early and maybe wait in line. There's even a bar at the very top so that keeps options open. Shhh, there's a bathroom upstairs too.
I love the ceiling in this venue - it reminds me of Las Vegas and all the good times I've had there. It's dark and comforting and a great place to snuggle in for some solid tunes.
Sure, it's a little far from down town but if you just hop on the 0 bus line you're there in a flash - and you get to see all the crazies who ride the bus go about their craziness. As far as parking goes I suggest locating a spot one street to the west on Acoma - there's usually something there if you are willing to look.
Easy access, not too pricey drinks (but not cheap by any means - $2 for a bottle of water), good music. What more could one ask for?
Sweetness!
I agree with most reviews, a little too far for five stars but an excellent venue none the less!
Lots of stairs, beware if you are a clumsy drunk! But nothing is as awesome as doing a shot of tequila at the top center bar in the middle of a show! Plus, I just learned from BK's review that there is a secret bathroom up there - what?!?! Killer sweet.
The vibe is complemented by the supercool ceiling art and there are a variety of places to enjoy the show. There is the balcony (get there early) with seats along the edge, the back area near the lower bar with tables, chairs, and air vents (my fav spot), and the large open area. The airflow there isn't the best but that is where a lot of action happens.
I love it when a good show is here at a decent price, but then the cab ride(s) and all the drinks I insist on bump it back up to what I spend elsewhere. It has a cool personality and is always a fun weird time, don't hesitate to see one of your favorite acts if they are coming here!
Sound
The Gothic sounds great.
Atmosphere
Crowds can be a bit sloppy.  Stupid no re-entry means lots of folks pre-game too hard.  After the show, plan on waiting in line to leave.  It's inevitable.  But the Gothic is just big enough to be really fun and  small enough to feel special.  Great place to see new and classic bands.
Drinks
Higher than a bar but reasonable for a venue. Â See note about pre-gaming.
Insider tip - parking:
Do not park by Starbucks or King Sooper's. Â Do not park in the strip mall south of the venue. Â Try Broadway's east side in the neighborhood. Â Early? Â Park across from the church north of the venue. Â Late? Try parking east of Broadway off of Floyd, particularly on the south side of Floyd.
Insider tip - bathrooms:
1. Â Fuck the bathrooms on the first floor. Â
2. Â The ladies room is up the first set of stairs and on the left.
3. Â There's a secret ladies room! Â Go all the way up both sets of stairs to the bar at the back of the balcony. Â As you face the bar, there is another large, ladies room to your right. Â I've been going to shows at the Gothic for almost 10 years and I just found this bathroom.
Love love love the Gothic! It's full of old school charm...and the BEST part?? They have seats! I love places like The Bluebird or The Ogden, but (and call me old if you must) I absolutely HATE being forced to stand up the entire time with people constantly crowding me.
This is like going to your local favorite dive bar and enjoying live music in a laid back atmosphere. The sound has always been incredible, not overwhelmingly loud or sharp at all. If you are contemplating a concert here, you need to definitely check it out.
The Gothic Theatre is a great venue to see live music. Being one of the smaller venues of it's type in the area, it allows for a more intimate setting where bands can play only feet away from their fans.
Parking can be bothersome due to the lack of an onsite lot - park down the streets of the surrounding neighborhood.
I wish there were negative stars as the Gothic would get a -5.
Here is a post I made on Facebook regarding yet another disappointing experience there. Â They never responded..just as they never return phone calls or emails..so basically they could care less about what their patrons think of them. Â Here is my latest and last experience with Denver's worst music venue.
I had to "like" the Gothic Theatre so they would get this message that I wanted to make sure all of us music lovers in Denver were aware of. A while back Phil Keaggy announced he was playing at the Gothic. When I pre-purchased our tickets, Keaggy was the first and biggest print name with The Royal being in smaller print. The tickets say Phil Keaggy, the marque said Keaggy and The Royal wasn't even printed on the tickets or on the marque. Now, for those of us that attend more shows than the average human, we all understand the rules. There is an OPENING ACT and a HEADLINER. The headliner is more predominately marketed/advertised while the opening act rarely even gets mentioned. By definition, the opening act does just that..opens the show for the headliner. The tickets said 7:30 so one can assume the opening act starts at 7:30 with the headliner around 9-9:30. We have been waiting for Keaggy to come thru Denver for a long time and arrived very excited at 9pm to see him play. We were told that Keaggy was over and The Royals were getting ready to come on! SERIOUSLY?? And in typical Gothic fashion, there are no managers or anyone who has any clue whats going on so trying to get an explanation is a moot point. No refunds. We left without seeing either act. So pay attention Gothic management...I'm going to explain to you the basics of running a music venue. The difference between an opening act and a headliner has been defined pretty clearly above - if you aren't clear yet, get a dictionary. IF you veer from the definition of these two acts, take note from every other promoter in this town and MAKE SURE THAT YOUR PATRONS KNOW ABOUT THE CHANGE! Make it clear on your website that the headliner will in fact be playing first. After the Buckethead fiasco (which I can't really blame the Gothic for but can be dissatisfied with the lack of communication to the audience as to why 2 hours after he was suppose to start he wasn't even in the building) and now this..I'm done with this venue. Clearly understandable why they have had issues staying open all these years. And no disrespect to The Royal - I've heard you and your talented musicians..it's simply that Keaggy was who we wanted to see last night. And why a Facebook post..because the management at the Gothic doesn't care to hear from their patrons and never respond to calls or requests to talk with them while you are at the venue. Hear me now?
Great theatre.
Appreciate the benefit hosted this past weekend - loads of fun!
Parking is horrible - the experience gave us LA flashbacks. Tow-trucks were swarming the area like sharks, recklessly whipping in and out of local business lots to find their next "fare".
Could not find the theatre listed on our Garmin - not sure why...Mayan and all businesses surrounding were there. Kind of odd.
Went here on a Thursday night and it a really nice and cozy venue. Â It's not the nicest or the cleanest place to see a concert but it's one of the best for getting up close and personal with the bands. Â
I appreciate all the different levels to stand on so that you're not stuck behind tall assholes who still decide to stand in the front! Â The drinks ranged from $4-$6 so the price is pretty awesome too.
Will definitely go again if a band I like is playing.
I'm not as high on the Gothic as a lot of people are, but it's definitely a decent concert venue. It feels out of the way, like it's a trek to get to. It feels like it's misplaced among its neighbors along south broadway. It feels like it could be more. But at the same time it overachieves for what it is. Good decoration, good staff, solid sightlines from anywhere inside -- it's definitely a decent place to see a show.
But as I've always said for concert venues, 75% of what you think of the venue has to do with the band that played there. So if you're seeing a good band, it's going to be better than it is if, say, Kings of Leon are playing. Then it will just be an awful experience that everyone will bury under years of emotional baggage.
That being said, you shouldn't choose to refrain from a show just because of the venue. I mean, it's live music -- just go! And if it's at the Gothic, well, their drinks are cheaper than any place on the 'Fax, so go!
My first reaction anytime I hear a band I love is playing the Gothic is always, "Oh man, I have to go all the way out there?!?" For that reason alone, I really just like this place, not love it. I mean, the place is a $20 cab ride away from Cap Hill, it makes seeing shows there much less cost effective.
Once I'm there though, I really enjoy the Gothic. The ambiance is nice. I love the cut out in the ceiling above the bar. It's one of the most beautiful touches to a venue, or bar for that matter, that I've ever seen. The staff working the bar is all very friendly and fast, no matter how swamped they get.
I'll be honest, I can't tell the difference in sounds quality between the Gothic and other music venues, but the sound is definitely good. Also, because it's so far away, the place isn't usually as packed as other venues, which is wonderful for me, since I get a little claustrophobic at concerts.
Overall, I'm never excited to go to concerts at the Gothic simply because of how inconveniently located it is, but once I'm there, I almost always enjoy myself.
This is one of my favorite smaller venues around town - the care in the renovations of this beautiful theater really shines in the intimacy of acoustic shows, but also shows well during rockers. Â
The singular big problem here is parking - many of the local streets are permit only (residents) and many lots are private, even after business hours, and have been known to tow late at night during shows..... I once came out of a Pink Martini show to find that half of the cars in the business lot in which I parked had been towed and I was next!! Â Eeeek.
Other than that, very few drawbacks. Â Staff has been very friendly (almost too friendly - they are not quick to throw out assholes who are making a disturbance), there is some seating on all levels if you get there early enough or have a big enough deposit in the karma bank to find a spare mid-show. Â The dance floor area in front of the stage usually turns into a packed-like-sardines SRO with no room for dancing, but who cares when you are this close to your favorite artist? Â Acoustics are very good here - I've seen They Might Be Giants, Aimee Mann, Pink Martini, Old 97's, Jayhawks, the Thorns, and the Weepies, and was impressed with Front of House sound on all of them.
I love the bar at the top balcony - usually has some crazy ass bourbon special going on. Â The bathrooms up there are less crowded and cleaner than the others. Â The HVAC can be a little off at times (as stated in Tara B.'s review). Â I've been here for many sweaty smelly shows in the middle of winter. Â Euw.
This venue ties with The Fillmore for my favorite indoor venue in Denver. Â At first, I was very skeptical of the venue and they only have a single toilet for the ladies which leads to really long lines. Â Aside from that, they have a really good bar and I just like the flow of the place. Â Upstairs there is tiered seating/standing and some stools around the balconies. Â Get there early if you want to sit!! Â
What I love about this place is that it fits a lot of people, but the stage is tiny and feels so intimate or can feel like you are looking in on a private concert (looking down from above at the sweating, singing crowd below you). Â Both perspectives are great and i highly encourage you to enjoy all sides of the Gothic. Â
Note: Do not park in the nearby King Soopers parking lot. Â You will get towed. Â There is plenty of street parking, so just walk your butt down there.
No noise ordinance in Englewood baby, so you can groove on til the wee hours of the morning here-YES! Â That is just awesome! Â The dance area is big enough for a lot of people to squeeze into. Â It gets hot and sweaty, just the way I like to get down! If that's not your thing there are 2 bar areas to hang out at and 2ish levels to the Gothic with seating available and room to just stand off at away from the chaos. Â The balcony wraps around and provides for perfect spots for people watching, and band watching. Â The balcony also provides for really high ceilings, so from the bottom The Gothic feels really big and open. Â Once it's full it's difficult to find seating or an area to hang out that's not over-congested though, you may want to get there a bit early. Â
The bar tenders are really nice, I honestly don't think I could do their job. Â Drinks aren't overly priced and they really lean on the cocktails. Â I love the reddish sky like feel that is painted over the first level bar.
Oh, Gothic. Your name conjures up images of that slightly creepy movie in my head (you know the one I'm talking about, with Julian Sands and Gabriel Byrne? No? Ok, maybe I am just getting old...) However, inside it's all about the concert-y goodness. I attended the Tuaca Body Art Ball here most recently - more like a talent show than an exhibit and man, what a feast for the eyes! - and last fall saw the Cranberries play on their reunion tour. I think it's probably very easy to judge a venue by what you're seeing rather than the actual venue, so here are my thoughts:
1. Get there early if you want a seat, because although this venue can fit like 1,000, probably only about 20% is actual seating at best. Because I'm a nerd, I like to park early and grab dinner at Moe's BBQ or Smashburger just down the block.
2. It can sometimes be super confusing whether you're in the will-call line, or the line to get in the door. Best to find someone in charge and ask before you stand outside in the snow for 30 minutes.
3. There's a bar on the main floor as well as the tippy top back room. Pours are super strong, so high marks for that.
I love the atmosphere of this place, with the high ceilings, art deco feel, and big wraparound balcony. It's almost like there's not a bad seat in the house. I nerdily just looked at their website, and found out the Gothic was the first Denver theatre to show "talking" movies back in the day (which I'm assuming means movies with sound.) Sweet. There's a lotta history here. I'm a fan!
Just got home from a rockin' show at the Gothic and have to update my review because 3 stars is not nearly good enough for this intimate venue. I am loathe to tell the world this because it will make it harder for me to find my favorite spots but I suggest the balcony. You are close to the bar and the bathroom and have an unmarred view of the stage.
This place can be a hotbox so I strongly recommend leaving the heavy coats at home and adding an extra layer of deodorant. The bathroom upstairs tonight was absolutely pristine and line free which made me do a doubletake because that it not what I expect when attending a concert. The bar staff is genial and while the beverages are pricey it could be worse.
The parking is still a bit of a nightmare so I recommend carpooling or checking out the side streets but watch out for the resident only Englewood permit action.
Don't count out the Gothic when looking at concert venues. They still have great shows like They Might Be Giants and can guarantee a great night of music and merriment.
This has turned into one of my favorite venues. Â The beer is cheap, the seating is arranged properly, and the sound is amazing. Â I also appreciate the fact that the place is cleaner than most other venues.
I really wish more people would come out and support local music at venues like these. Â I was recently at a show with some great local metal bands and the place wasn't as filled as it should be.
Check it out!
My favorite venue in Denver! Too bad not too many great bands play there, very often. Boo.
The bar(s) in the space are affordable and easy to access, there is one upstairs and one downstairs. The balcony is my favorite spot to stand in this venue though, out of the way from all the crazies at shows (haha) but you can see! Even from the bar in the very back! It is great. Plus, there are lots of stools and chairs - which I always really appreciate in a great concert hall, because the people need to sit down, okay? The sound level always seems appropriate, too. As do the ticket prices, well, depending on the band.
Nice bartenders and security people, too! Parking is always so easy around this area as well. Yay!
Space to roam is my first impression of the Gothic. The bartenders are accommodating when you get your dates drink incorrect. The staff seems to understand when you need an extra free poster, and the hosts are kind enough to promote other local businesses to go and check out after the show.
The seating is amazing, whether you want to escape the crowd and visit the balcony, or get a photo op from the ground floor, the sound carries to each audience member. All is good at the Gothic.
soooo, Parking is the only issue I have heard about. On several occasions, word of mouth has been a hinderance with Gothic's parking issue. Don't blame the Gothic if you get a parking ticket!
I came here and saw One Year, a snowboard movie put on by Live Nation. Â I was totally happy! Â I headed up stairs to get a good seat... they hurt my bumm... so we sat on the couch. Â The place is old and maybe thats why I give this place 3... but goodness... the seats were ragged!
I have been to 4 different shows/movies here and 2 of the times the bathrooms did not work...
Parking does kinda stink! Â I feel bad for the people that live around here... cause you really have to park in the neighborhood.
Good vibe though. Â I will be back!
Cute and small venue situated in Englewood; this was a really great place to see Dir en grey live this past weekend. The stage was smaller than the Grand Ballroom in SF, but that was a plus for fans so then they could see the whole band in one view. I enjoyed being able to see all five members of Dir en grey from my POV (I was on the rail, luckily).
I love the old-timey feeling of the Gothic Theatre from outside as well; looks like an old movie theatre (probably was at one point, I haven't read up on the history...). Inside, there's enough room on the floor for standing and for people to sit. The balcony also looked spacious enough for more patrons.
I didn't pay attention to the service of alcohol/etc., but in general my impression of the serivce (security) was good; security was more much lax than in SF, which was good. They were at least personable, which is hard to find in security guards these days.
I'd love to come back to the Gothic Theatre in the future. =)
Saw Ingrid Michaelson here last Friday. Found a parking space on a neighborhood side street and moseyed our way towards the Marquee, where we made friends in line and laughed about the chilly weather, cigarettes, and idiotic band names like "Whole Wheat Bread."
The downers here mostly apply only to Ingrid's tour management - not to the Gothic. We weren't admitted indoors until 15 minutes after the estimate (and it was COLD, damnit!) Didn't expect to have two acts open for her (David Ford and Nathan Faulkner) - I was only expecting Ford. Alas, I have to admit that I was disappointed in the Gothic for a reason that's probably due to my own stupidity - if a show sells out, do you really expect them NOT to have standing room only?
Given we were lucky that a few bar tables and stools were set out, and since we were early we were able to nab a few - extremely important since I'd fallen down the stairs earlier this week and needed something plush for my badly bruised rump. I'm so glad the stools were cushion-ey, even if they had weird stains.
I love the ambiance of the Gothic. I love that I sat near the bar and still felt an intimacy with the performers. I love that the drinks were reasonably priced, and my Irish Coffee's were generously spiked.
I would love to go back to the Gothic for another act. It's close to home, away from the hustle-and-bustle that I don't always want to deal with - I definitely recommend stopping in for a show.
Probably the best thing about the Gothic Theatre is that it brings a downtown smaller concert venue --a la the Bluebird or Ogden--- away from the hustle of bustle of... well, downtown. You can find parking at the Gothic and you won't be confronted by homeless hobos when making your way from car to venue. Heck, I wish all the bands I've seen at the Bluebird and Ogden over the years would've played the Gothic, instead.
I remember when the Gothic was a trashy movie theater in the 80's and I''ve seen several concerts there since it was converted into a music venue in the early 90's. The place was remodeled a little bit about 10 years ago, as they added an expanded balcony and more seating on the main floor. Before it was a stark warehouse, now it has a little more atmosphere, better bars...and more furniture.
The balcony actually affords a great view of the stage. I saw Clutch play there in 2005 and had trouble seeing the stage from the main floor. For the second half of the show, I hopped upstairs and found a great view with less sweaty bodies and dancing/bobbing freaks. As long as the mutant seven footers stay away from you, you should find a good spot to watch the show.
Looking for a bar before or after? Hop a few doors north to the Falcon. There's also a hipster bowling alley closeby.
Even though parking is easy, you should not park in the nearby King Soopers lot. Englewood cops frequently patrol that lot during shows, so there's a good chance you'll get a ticket. There is a small private lot right next to the Theatre, but it's tough to zip in there and not worth the money. I'd suggest parking in the neighborhood streets behind (due West) of the Gothic. Or even the giant Wal-mart complex a few blocks away (but that will generate quite a walk for you).
Came here to see local band 3oh!3 here this weekend. It is quite possibly my favorite small intimate venue in Denver so far. Great place to see a live show up and close. But because it's small, it gets quite hot in here and they need better ventilation. Â
I like the big bar area and lots of tables and chairs to sit in. The drinks are ridiculously cheap. Â Probably my favorite thing about this place.
Bring earplugs; super stupid awesomely loud. Hot. Sweaty. Hard to stake out a good view and not be smooshed with everybody else in the lowest level if you're not 6'8". And hey, 6'8" people, why not give some short kids a chance and stand a little more back?
Two things would improve this place a lot. A bit more ventilation, and a row of tallish benches along the walls for the upper level. I swear you could fit like 30 more people with awesome views that way.
I go to shows here because the band I like is playing here. I'm not thrilled when they are here, but I'm not disappointed either, like I am with the fillmore.
Awesome grungy venue that I thought closed down back in the day. Â This was really quite the punk club... and you never knew what was going to happen. Â The way they re opened it is fantastic, and to this day on of my top two or three Denver clubs. Â Would be 5 stars, but the sound isn't that hot.
Yay Gothic... well done.
Amazing venue. Â Saw Ladytron and Datarock here on 6/4/08, and it was a pretty fantastic show.
First of all, let me emphasize that I'm 5'2" and therefore have to struggle at concerts to see more than the tops of the performers' heads. Â I went to this show not expecting to be able to see much. Â However, the stage is a good 5-6' off the floor, so from mostly anywhere on the floor a short person can at least see faces.
About halfway through the show I got tired of being smooshed up by the stage, so I checked out the bar. Â Somewhat reasonable prices for a performance venue, and the drinks weren't terrible. Â I figured fighting my way back to the floor was useless, so I wandered up to one of the many balconies. Â Magically, there was seating available! Â I spent the rest of the show comfortably sitting under an air conditioning vent, sipping a drink, and being able to see every inch of the stage. Â It's so rare to be so comfortable at this type of venue!
Also, this venue nailed what most venues seem to be incapable of: temperature control. Â It actually stayed COOL, despite the hundreds of people pressing up against each other. Â Unbelievable.
Acoustics were about average, a little too loud and vocals were almost inaudible, very typical for this type of show. Â Only reason I took a star away.
Conclusion: great venue for a short person due to the many levels of balcony and floor. Â You might even get ad-hoc seating! Â Decent drinks, great temperature, Â tolerable acoustics. Â I can't wait to find more shows here.
I saw TIger Army here on 5/29. Â It was a good show and I like the venue. Â Echoing what just about everyone else has said so far, I really like the Marque outside, especially for a pyschobilly show, just gives it that nice extra 50's classic feel.
The layout is nice, lots of stairs and multi-leveled dance floors and bar areas ALWAYS make for a fun time....ALWAYS! Â Especially when it's crowded, dark, drinking....always.
Anyway, yeah the layout is cool.  I didn't go up to the mezz, it looked pretty crowded and the bartender put me in a bad mood by skipping me twice.  Tending bar isnt that hard if you are the right person for the job  :/  On the bar's upside, they do have Peroni which is one of my new favs as far as brews go.  It's light, smooth, good-taste and it's Italian...who whoulda thought right?
The stage is an ideal size for the bands that would play there (That's probably obvious...I think...club to stage size proportion?) Â Yeah....so Tiger Army filled the stage just right and there wasn't too much room for them to run around like Def Leppard. Â It helps keep them focused on keeping me entertained.
So over all, thumbs up to this place. Â The decor is cool as well with all the iron work railings and the sky painted on the ceiling.
We WISH they had a venue this size down in Colorado Springs! As it is - we're frequently up at The Gothic to catch a live show on weekends... (We're getting too old to dance 'till dawn & still make it to work... That drive from Den to COS is getting long!)
Anyway - the venue is always clean, and now non-smoking (love that law!) Â If you get there early enough you can get a chair and a little table downstairs or up in the balcony to sip your drink at during the opener(s)... Â
They seem to have a great booking agent - getting lots of shows that we want to see in there... And the interior isn't hard to look at with a neat "deco" type recessed ceiling in the bar area - and some funky lighting on the main ceiling as well...
I'd give the Gothic Theater 5 stars if it wasn't so far away from my house because really that's my only complaint about this music venue.
The thing I love about it is there really isn't a bad spot in the whole place - a key point for watching live music. It's all designed with stadium seating-like rows, all the way up to the tippy top of the second floor. So you can be crowded on the relatively small dance floor portion or you can grab a seat a bit higher and be able to see either way.
They do tend to play quite a few 16+ shows and those always start earlier than 21+ shows so make sure to check the door times on any show you go to or you may end up missing a bit of the show. Especially if you're like me and subconsciously believe that all shows start around 9 or 10.
Plus they have a full bar and a drink special every night I believe. And the Gothic doesn't separate the legal drinkers from the underagers any more. 21+ just have to wear wrist bands now, rather than being corralled into the "drinking area" so that's nice.
I'd never been to this theatre aside from driving by a few hundred times til a couple nights ago, and was not disappointed. Â The awesomely retro and eye-catching marquee does an excellent job of representing what awaits you inside this intimate venue. Â There's plenty of standing room in addition to a good amount of seating and a popular balcony. Â I'm a big fan.
Bonus points to the Gothic staff for updating the marquee WHILE the show was going on-- impressive, guys.
Never mind snapping photos of the cool bands you'll see playing here. You'll want to just snap shots of the balcony on an empty night.
This is a beautiful, historic venue in south Denver. Caught Superdrag here once, and it was a great night. Most recently caught Less Than Jake here. Even better.
Just watch yourself on all those damn stairs in the balcony!
If nothing else, this place gets five stars for the decor. Â I saw Gym Class Heroes at the Gothic, and was very impressed with everything. Â It wasn't so packed that I couldn't move, yet it was full enough that I felt comfortable dancing without thinking everyone was laughing at me. Â I never had to wait in line at the bar, Â they were handing out free energy drinks, and for the opening act I enjoyed sitting on a stool, leaning over the balcony. Â
The acoustics were good, the lighting was good, and there isn't a bad place to sit/stand in the house. Â I'm definitely looking into seeing more bands here this summer.
Ahhh memories I wish that would leave my mind. Â Standing outside in a line in mid February in hopes to grab our will call tickets for Single File. Â We stood so close to each other for additional warmth that you could feel the person behind you shiver. Â Sweet relief as the attendants braved the frigid air themselves and started going down the line, whisking names off the list and all the little squirrels zipped inside. Â
The Gothic theater is two story. This is where the people divide. Â Those that are more laid back and mellow go upstairs as the young children go to the main floor to mosh (they don't seem to care what kind of music is playing they always find a reason to run into each other) Â Waiting for a drink won't cut into your music enjoyment upstairs, and bathrooms are located on each side of the bar. Â Plenty of room to sit down and enjoy the show with complete cool or stand up the alleyways and bop up and down.
Find parking wherever you can, even if it's in King Soopers parking lot. Â Java is nearby to warm you up on winter nights or take the edge off that last red bull and vodka you downed like kool aid.
If you want to be one of those types who like to boast, "Oh, yeah, I saw their show back in '07 in Denver, before everyone else heard of them," plan ahead and start hanging out here.
Great for intimate shows with good sound, and the bar is fab. Â Even sitting on the railing in the balcony, you feel connected with what's happening on stage. Â
Thanks, Gothic, for saving this Art Deco gem!
The Gothic Theatre has been around since the 1920's, when it was an old-school, live theatre. Â Everytime I see a grand, old art deco-like theatre like The Gothic, I think of the scene in ANNIE when 'Daddy Warbucks' takes Annie & Grace TO THE MOVIES.
There's a wonderful, spectacular, all-lit-up marquis exclaiming the artists that will be playing there over the next week or two. Â There's a ticket booth outside that is quaint and cute. Â Inside, there are two levels. Â Upstairs there's a nice space to sit in a plush theatre seat and chill.
But the fantastic, wonderful part about this space is the large dance floor right by the stage on the first floor. Â I danced my pants off at THE ENGLISH BEAT this summer. Â
It's intimate, the staff is on top of it, and there's a sense of history at The Gothic.
