The Firehouse Theatre is located at 1609 W. Broad Street near the corner of Lombardy & West Broad in the Fan neighborhood of Richmond. Free street parking is often available on either side of Broad Street between Lombardy and Allen, and along Lombardy between Grace and Broad. It is very hard to seat late patrons, so we encourage you to come early.

The bar will be open before the show and during intermission. There's plenty of lounging space.
