What a great little theatre! If you wanna feel like you are watching from within the show no matter…read morewhere you sit this is the place to go for a show. Plus all of the staff are super nice and helpful, the location is super clean and elegant. They have a small table for refreshments and snacks, plus a bigger bar area with some seating for even more refreshments and snacks to pre-game in the pre-show. The show we saw Fat Ham was excellent and honestly one of the best written and acted shows I've seen in a long time. Definitely grab a show here!

We went to Orlando Shakes for our annual visit to see A Christmas Carol, and it was fantastic. It's…read morealways a holiday favorite, but this year we especially loved it because they changed things up a bit--it kept us excited to see what was coming next and made the story feel fresh. The actors and actresses are very talented, and the performance overall was great. Tickets are reasonably priced, which makes it a more affordable option if you love theater but don't want to spend the higher prices at the Dr. Phillips Center. The venue itself is easy to enjoy: there's a private parking lot, a lobby with drinks and snacks, and even a little gift shop to browse before or after the show. All in all, Orlando Shakes delivered a wonderful holiday experience, and we'll definitely keep coming back for A Christmas Carol each year.

There are some amazing things about this theatre space…read more I love the way the doors can slide open so on nice Orlando nights it's like an open air entrance. I love how beautiful the stairwell is going up to two. I love how much they have expanded their food and beverage line up over the years. The sound tends to be pretty good, the communication from the theatre is always amazing. They waive fees if you come to the box office to buy your tickets. The seats are comfy and almost every seat has a solid view. The box seats are the exception so be warned. The volunteers are always amazing and they are so nice. It would be cool if they opened a second location that served coffee because that line for espresso beverages is always really long. I love the breadth of show types. There's always something for everyone.

Wednesday, March 18, 2026…read more Front Row, Center Tickets to Ms. Diana Ross' Concert Performance I've been to numerous events at the Dr. Phillips Center but nothing beats having the opportunity to see a legend perform within arms-length to where you're seated. And when that "Icon of Icons" is none other than Ms. Diana Ross...well, nothing else need be said. It was a dream come true to say the least. In my most previous update of the Dr. Phillips Center I indicated meeting with and having my photograph taken with the incredible soprano Sarah Brightman was an entertainment highlight of 2025. 2026 has just begun but I will have to use the superlative "spectacular" once again. As in a spectacular show from start to finish. Diana Ross may be 81 years old!...but she still has the voice and ahem...the moves of a much younger performer. Just think of this, she was performing with the Supremes in the 1960's. I wasn't even born and by the time I was she had 12 number one singles with the OG of girl groups! And she is still working it to this day. Ms. Ross sung a multitude of her hits which kept the crowd, and my sister and I, dancing and singing throughout the evening. However, when she started to belt out Gloria Gaynor's anthem "I Will Survive" that really got the audience out of their seats. An Icon singing and Iconic piece of music is an experience second to none. Ms. Ross, you and your mark on music history is unmatched...blessings to you and your family!

I had an amazing time coming here for a Fringe show! P Sparkles PJ party was amazing! I was able to…read morefind seats in the front row so we got a great view of all of the cast. I didn't even know this theater existed so I would definitely come back to watch other shows here. They have an area where you walk in and they have a bar and waiting stage. Then when the show is ready to load you go into another room with the main stage. There was free parking at the parking lot next to it. Just make sure you remember where you parked your car. I love supporting local artists so I would definitely check this place out again. I even got picked to be one of the models for the PJ party! So fun!! The cast also performs at SAK Improv so you can see them regularly over there.

Really enjoyed our first visit to see some improvisational jazz. With the new location it sounds like they have some big plans to upgrade the space and expand their offerings.

When we entered they were so grateful that we were there. I was happy to be supporting the arts in addition to supporting a non-profit. They have snacks and drinks for sale and there is seating available for you to listen and vibe with the musicians. After the first set, musicians can sign up to play on stage which I thought was really cool. There are so many talented musicians in central Florida! I hope more people know about these events to support the arts. We had a really good time!
