Black Box Okhla is a brilliant space for a theatrical event if you are working on a production that requires an interactive spatial environment. I love the industrial nature of this site which is what make this space unique and avant- garde. I designed an opera here last to last year and we had great experience working here.
This is an absolutely fantastic space run by some of the most supportive people. We have had the most wonderful experience working in the space. And the seating is lovely as opposed to what people have written here.
A really unique experience, right from the moment you step in. The space surpasses so many of the conventional expectations and is bold and innovative. Went there for two plays and they were quite something! Looking forward to seeing what they put up next.
Never again. Location is not too good but parking space is available. Unfortunately, everything else is mediocre to bad. Very small, dark and claustrophobic auditorium, bad acoustics with a wooden structure on which rest back-breaking hard benches, (most without a backrest) that serve as seating. All throughout my school and college days Ive been associated with theatre in Kolkata, seen them all, from polished masterpieces to innovative, experimental and revolutionary styles. Seen them in plush auditoriums, as well as dingy hole in the wall rooms and old warehouses that served as theatre halls.Theres something called trying too hard... too hard to be different... this is it. The play we saw was good, acting subtle and understated, but this review is about the theater... good ambience is a prerequisite for enjoying a play and here, it fails miserably.
Have seen 2 excellent plays at the black box. Very innovative and modern. Keep up the good work!
Id like a more elevated stage and nicer seats
The play was stunning! Game changer for Delhi theatre.(not for those expecting run-of-the-mill mandi house plays)
The people who work at BBO are lovely!
Fantastic new space for theatre performances. Professional and high quality theatre.
Amazing place and great curated plays
Never again! Very avant garde ! Uncomfortable seating, poor acoustics, dump location.
Decent
Brilliant what these guys are doing!
Fabulous theatre space
Small but exclusive preview theatre.
