Built in 1922, this district destination hosted jazz legends Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, Nat King Cole, Louie Armstrong and Cab Calloway in its early years. Though the theatre was shuttered for a time, a renovation project in the 1990s brought the space back to its former glory. Today,the venue welcomes performers from a variety of different genres. Shows are for all ages unless otherwise stated. If you come hungry, don't worry. They have a bar with snacks in order to fuel up before, during or after a show. Shows are announced usually on Mondays so be sure to check their social media if there is an act you've been waiting to see. METRO: U Street/Cardoza
