This intimate venue seats only forty-five guests. "General Admission" seats are filled on a first-come basis. For couples seeking privacy and an extra jolt during the performance, the Hypnodrome's signature "Shock Box" seats are available for a higher price. Winner of SF Weekly's "Best of San Francisco 2008" Award for "Best Bonus Theater Experience," Hypnodrome's "interactive audience-invading" Shock Boxes are themed loveseats (Heaven and Hell, The Pharaoh's Tomb, and The Asylum of Shock), that offer the same opportunity for illicit trysting that was once a feature of the Parisian Theatre du Grand Guignol - thanks to a sheer curtain that can be drawn to conceal the goings on inside each private booth. A "Shock Box" couple can see the show, but the show cant see them! In the "Turkish Lounge" for two, couples may bask in decadent languor and kick back among oriental carpets and silken pillows while enjoying the show.
