Inside the St. James Theatre on Broadway, the producers of the new musical "American Idiot," based on the Green Day album, have eschewed the usual lobby bar and set up a faux Irish pub called St. Jimmy—named after one of the characters in the punk rock concept album.
Actually, it's still pretty much a lobby bar, as far as selection and service go. But it's a neat idea. And you briefly feel like you're at a bar, owing to the neon sign. The bar is also open on both sides, in the front and in back, which faces onto a passageway by which the patrons enter the theatre.
You can take your drinks to your seat in this show, by the way.
