"The staff of employees and volunteers are always extremely helpful and friendly. The Florida Theatre is such a beautiful venue, and has amazing acoustics. Plus, with the design of the Theatre, there is not a bad seat in the entire auditorium. It is my absolute favorite place to go to a show, and I highly recommend experiencing it for yourself."

"The theater has always been a favorite of ours. It is small enough so that there are no bad seats. In the last few years it has been restored, the seat have been replaced, bathrooms renovated and the incredibly detailed walls a and ceiling have been painstakingly repainted this restoring the theater to how it looked when it was new in the 1930’s. It has a beautiful, historic feel. At the same time, the sound system has been replaced and bands sound great. We love the theater. It is our favorite place to see shows."

"This theater has great sound. We had balcony seats over to the side, and we still had a great view of the stage and full sound. The place is clean and very nicely decorated like the old theaters."
