Each of the theaters is unique. We go most often for the Opera Tampa performances. Great place. Only drawback is the problem exiting the big City-run parking garage just south of the Straz Center. It can take a half hour or more because it is so poorly managed.. More

We have been members of the performing arts center for the past ten years. We attend all types of shows here like concerts, Broadway shows, comedy shows, etc. Every show we've been too has been top notch and of the utmost quality. We highly recommend seeing any of the shows at this venue. More

My husband and I love TBPAC. We've been to several operas and I've been to other shows. They are always evenings to remember. The performers are excellent, the staff and volunteers are polite and the facilities are very nice. I always look forward to seeing what shows the next season will have. More
