Whoever said size doesn't matter might have had this concert venue in mind. In the case of the Cleveland Agora, arguably Northeast Ohio's most storied rock concert hall, smaller just may be better. Both regional and national acts are booked at the hall's two venues, located about two miles from Cleveland State University. The Ballroom seats about 700, while the Theatre has approximately 2,000 seats. Concessions are available at each performance, with a wristband system used for age identification at the bar. Old timers hearken back to the days of the Coffeebreak Concerts, when such national acts as Quiet Riot (in their heyday) and Bruce Springsteen would play abbreviated sets before going to play their shows at larger venues later in the evening. The Agora still books some big name acts. Marilyn Manson, Simple Plan and Stereophonics have all dropped by.
