The King Cat Theater
The King Cat Theater Reviewed
In a city with no shortage of night clubs for the alcohol drinking crowd, the venue situation for EDM events is dire. The amount of venues available to promoters has been squeezed down to a select few, and they get what they can when they can, which means some venues might pop up in an unlikely place. Jumbo, for instance, where EDM events are held regularly, doubles as an Chinese restaurant during the day.
One such unlikely venue is the King Cat Theater, situated in a busy corner of downtown Seattle. Although it seems more suited for EDM events than places like Jumbo, the King Cat is built for stage performances, with ample seating in the main auditorium. What it isn't made for, is club like events that include dancing.
During an EDM event at the King Cat, the seats on the main floor are removed, to make room for party goers as they enjoy their favorite DJ or tune. It sounds good, in theory. In practice, it's a different story.
