REVIEWS
Did you guys know you can rent this place out for a wedding or party? The price is reasonable. This venue is so beautiful and spacious and it was our first time visiting the Truman. My girl and I had a blast checking out the bars inside, seeing the green rooms and also the mezzanine. We explore some more and there's plenty of room for a dance floor and to have your tables for your guests, especially for a wedding party. They have a nice huge stage where you can have a band and also room for the bride and groom party. I really enjoy this place and they have plenty of bathrooms so you don't have to worry about a line that much.

A large open warehouse type room, with modern paint and decor. There is an outside bar and seating area as well as two indoor bars on either side of the theater. The acoustics are good and the vibe of the place is fantastic. Definitely one of my new favorite venues in KC.
