Variety Playhouse

I saw 35 Human there at the Variety Playhouse and I had a blast! The sounds where perfect and seating arrangements are well planed and it just an all around good theater

One of my favorite places to see a show in Atlanta. Stadium seating ensures that you can always see the band playing. They are able to book top bands, but are a small enough venue that the price is right and you can enjoy the show without a huge crowd looming over you.

This is a great place to see a show in Atlanta. It's small and easy to navigate, even in a crowd. The tickets are also less expensive than other venues. I've enjoyed every show I've seen here!

In my first concert out of country (Im from Mexico) I havent seen such place as variety playhouse...Even the municipal theater in my home town looks much good than this venue...Dirty everywhere...and ending this, Ive been kicked out from concert, for bringing a camcorder to the show (they told me that theyre calling to the police and stuff)...And all the Euclid avenue is a garbage!...Everythings is abandoned, as the rest of Highlands district...

I saw Nickel Creek at the Variety Playhouse. It was the best concert I have ever seen. The venue really added a lot. It was so small. You could sit anywhere you wanted. I stood in the front. Wow, I couldn't have asked for a better place for a concert!!

The Variety Playhouse is by far one of the best places to catch national and local acts in Atlanta. The name is definatley applicable as I have seen acts that range from Junior Brown to The Afghan Whigs to Men at Work to Cracker (the Counting Crows opened this show just before they broke it big). There is not a bad seat in the house and the sound is usually excellent. If you don't want to deal with the crowds down on the floor try and grab a seat on the front row of the balcony.

Variety is indeed the spice of life here; the Variety draws the interesting, the sturdy and the trendy (Ryan Adams) alike. The unique seating situation (it used to be a movie theater) is great if you don't feel like standing, but it's a pain squeezing through the narrow aisles, and don't sit in the front row behind all the people standing at the front. The neighborhood is a little dicey --I've been accosted by bums outside here frequently -- and on-street parking can be a problem during big events. But you've almost got to brave it for the solid acts.
