My husband and I experienced the Florida Theater for the first time to see Clint Black who was MARVELOUS!! on April 16, 2023. The theater itself, while in need of some tender care for a bit of the inside peeling paint a normal problem in coastal Florida, was absolutely beautiful. The ushers were very helpful and attentive. We really appreciated them encouraging our rowdy neighbors to chill so all could enjoy the concert. We expect to visit again.
Best place ever. The theatre was a great experience! The staff was friendly and helpful, and the seats were comfortable. The sound quality was fantastic, and the visuals were impressive. The stage was well-lit and the actors did a great job of engaging the audience. I particularly enjoyed the range of performances, from classic plays to contemporary shows. The theatre also hosts special events, such as concerts and comedy shows, which add to the variety of entertainment available. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, with plenty of parking nearby. I highly recommend this theatre to anyone looking for a great night out, whether you're a theatre buff or just looking for a fun night out with friends or family.
My husband and I went to see Post Modern Jukebox. The show was amazing, and the emcee in particular was phenomenal! The venue is really good for a show of this type, as it's smaller and gives you a more intimate atmosphere. The theater itself needs some work. It's in disrepair, with crumbling ceiling parts, worn curtains framing the stage, and cracked tiles in the restroom.
For a building built in 1924 its in amazing condition. Very nice. They had several areas you could buy drinks. Jim Gaffigan was great! Can only imagine the acts that have come through the building... apparently Elvis was born in the building. Lol joke from Gaffigan.
I’ve seen two shows here so far and loved both. The seats are comfortable and there isn’t a bad seat in the house. Kevin James and Jim Gaffigan were hilarious. Tickets are fairly priced. Staff is helpful. Bathrooms are clean. Totally worth supporting this place!
Great venue, saw Jim Gaffigan. I didn't get a drink but my daughter did. 1 mixed drink was $30.00. Just a heads up if you come thirsty.
The theatre owners of the 1920’s believed that showing movies alone was not enough to draw crowds and that a live stage show and a lavish interior were of equal. Lord they were right. About last night! The Little River Band. Love my home town theater.
This theatre is absolutely gorgeous. Very easy to find parking. Great refreshment area. Walking distance to lots of restaurants before or after shows. If you have the opportunity to see anything here at all, take it.
So every year my organization Community Nutcracker puts on a show at this incredible, historical and lovely venue. We take over the theatre for 6 days and produce 6 shows… I have the privilege of working with some awesome folks.. and let me tell you this year was just amazing. As a 501c non profit we have so many intricacies and needs that may go beyond normal. We produce two school shows, a community service night and 3 public shows. Our feature charity is Dreams Come True, who grants children with life threatening diseases their dream trips. So you can imagine how many small details are required for each performance. From set up and load in on Monday to the final performance on Saturday night to load out and clean up these guys and gals know what they are doing. 6 shows and we never miss a beat. Backstage handles our props, our backdrops, our show calling and scripts and our dancers and volunteers. Front of house has me in awe as they shuffle through thousands of patrons excited to visit and kick off the holiday season. Ticketing and the box office allow us to conduct our business and take care of our clients with ease and professionalism and are the sweetest too!. I cannot thank them enough for helping us to make our production week the best and most enjoyable week of the year. BRAVO Florida Theatre.. you may and should take a BOW!!!!
Nice venue. However, my rating is solely based on the fact that you can not record a video. Saw Cheap Trick here and was very disappointed as soon as you enter the building it's posted with no videos, and they try their best to enforce it. You spend a lot of money to go see a band you really enjoy and can't take a video of your favorite songs. If I had known that, I would have gone to see them in Orlando and used my phone freely.
