Studio is the theatre company. In their complex, they have three theatres (Metheny - which I think I just mispelled, Mead - named for Gilbert who just died like last week *sob*, and whatever they call the little black box one upstairs). The Mead is ground level in the back. Will call is straight to the back, then you go to the right for the Mead. (also, the ladies room is back there.) You will pass the Metheny as you walk through the lobby to the ticket desk.
That part of P street is perfectly safe, for the record. Use Dupont Circle metro if you're worried - that walk takes you through a nice residential neighbourhood. U Street is on U Street and the area between there and Studio is marginally more sketch. Of course, I walk it alone at night after the show all the time and it's no big deal, but then I've lived in big cities for eight years and prefer to just deal as opposed to never go anywhere. Just walk with a purpose, don't look scared, and if you think you're lost, ask for directions because people in DC are nice. There is no need to be afraid in that part of DC. (that part of DC is full of skinny white girls and gay men - we're not talking ghetto, here.)
