Getting Here

Food & Drink

The Edgewater Neighborhood offers a diverse buffet, from fine Italian dining to delicious Vietnamese cuisine. There’s a place for everyone’s tastes! Local brunch spots and coffee shops are popular among our matinee-goers; meanwhile, our evening audiences find no shortage of dinner options or watering holes to host post-show get-togethers.

Accessibility

Accessibility is very important to us here at The Edge Theater, as we believe that theater is an experience to be shared by all. Both theaters were designed specifically with accessibility in mind. We offer the following accommodations in an effort to ensure every patron who enters our doors feels welcome!
