I have been to 2 shows at the theater. It is such a beautiful place, & glad they keep it restored for our enjoyment! Always clean & friendly staff. If you have never been, it is a must!

The theatre is nice but if your over 6'2" you may have some trouble with leg room. I'm 6'6" and I was very uncomfortable. The venue is clean and organized however they did not kick people out for yelling to the stage like they said. Disappointed in that.

Saw David Chappelle and was disappointed with his material, expected more from such a comedic genius. The security there was lame as it took them over 10 minutes to remove a couple of hecklers.....so because of their ineptness, that was 10 minutes of Chappelle I will never get back. #davechappelle #floridatheatre

I have always thought it was beautifully crafted and lovely tiles in the ceiling above the stage. I am so glad they are making good use of it now by having so many local events like the recent art show of the schools here and in nearby counties. Keep up the good work!

The acoustics are superb. It has the old charm that a lot of people like.
