Seeing the Slow Burn Theatre productions at the Amaturo Theater is very enjoyable. Whether you select close to the stage or at the back of the theatre all are good seats. Theatre parking is very convenient at the nearby and connected city garage. The garage utilizes the Park Mobile app system. It is highly recommended to have the app downloaded on your mobile device before leaving home so not to rely on QR codes posted on signs. Enjoy your theatre experience.
Have not been to the "small" theater at Broward Center in awhile but purchased last minute tickets to a comedian I liked. The theater was exactly as I recalled- lovely, plush, soft purple velvet seats with accommodating staff. The only thing was it said theater opened 90 minutes before show and that was not correct- the lobby opened about 60 minutes before and the actual theater opened 15 minutes beforehand leaving many patrons standing around and asking why.
Excellent view from the seating layout. Great acoustics. Easy access to your seats.
Great Venue for off Broadway theater. Not bad at all. The voices are hot or miss, but the production itself is done in an almost professional manner.
Intimate 584 seat theatre. Comfortable seats with arm rests and plenty of legroom. Theater is decorated in purples, greens, blues and browns creating a warm inviting tone. Attractive outdoor courtyard. Went to see the musical Witches of Eastwick. Excellent singing and dancing. Great sets, costumes, music and sound.
