The troupe's movie reenactments are a Bell House staple, and the witchy sisterhood of Practical Magic is peak material for a participatory crowd. It lands for 90s-movie devotees, group nights out and anyone who wants theater with zero reverence and a bell dictating their sips. If you can already quote the midnight margaritas scene, you know exactly which buzzwords are coming.
What to expect
A rowdy showroom where costumed comedians race through the film's plot with props, songs and improvised asides while the bell keeps the whole room drinking in sync. The audience is loud and participatory by design, and the venue's full bar keeps glasses filled with your beverage of choice. Shows in the series run around 90 minutes.
Good to know
- R train to 4th Ave-9th St is about a 10-minute walk
- Strictly 21+ with valid government-issued photo ID
- Doors open an hour before showtime; early arrival gets the good sightlines
- Any beverage works for the game — pace yourself, the bell rings often
- Gowanus and Park Slope bars and restaurants are close for afterward

Common questions

Is the actual movie shown?
No, it is a live comedic stage reenactment of the film, not a screening.
