We really enjoyed our first-time visit to this facility, even though we were quite disappointed by the group we saw (Home Free). The facility has ample parking across the street, friendly helpful staff, easy access to restrooms and fairly comfortable seats...though the leg room is average. You can feel the history of the small facility when you enter, though the acoustics were very good. Nice place to see a show.

I love this theatre! My hubby called and spoke with Christine, she was so helpful! We bought tickets for two shows. We can’t wait until the renovations are done! We are from the mid-west and have been loyal to our local theatres during the winter months. Thank you Christine for your help and suggestions! We can’t wait to for December!

Attended a show here in Dec. 2019 for the first time and was totally impressed. It is a beautiful historic building that is small enough that even balcony seats have a great view. We loved it and would for sure see another show here.

This poor review is concerning unresolved issues with inconsiderate guests spoiling the concert for others and allowed to do so with no real enforcement on the part of the venue. Alcohol is over served and the night we were there resembled a scene out of the movie Roadhouse (without the fist fighting). Totally out of hand, a drunk free for all for some. There should be zero tolerance for this.
My partner, along with several strangers in our row got up on several occasions to inform the theatre of what was happening but the crew misbehaving was handled with kid gloves. Security should have been called by the employees but no one did. This issue is not a one off. We spoke to security as we were leaving early and they stated they would have to resolve the lack of communication but one wonders how many times has that has been told to guests leaving?
Tickets and food/drinks are expensive and everyone should be allowed a pleasant concert experience. Because of this, we wont be back unless management can come up with a real solution and not just apologies.`

We attended all weekend long, a Barbershop Winter Contest here. Totally delightful and beautiful but desperately needs updated seats for more legroom. I felt like a giraffe with lots of legroom needed!! My husband's group sang on their bus because there are no rooms backstage to practice in. Very quaint theatre. Staff is very helpful and is aware of the problems there.

This Theatre Needs Some Serious Renovation. Seats Are Small & Short Length.There Is Holes In The Ceiling & Peeling Paints. The Middle Main Orchestra Section Needs An Open Isle. Easier Access To Seats. Need An Assigned Handicapped Section. Wider Isle.

Recently restored to its previous grandeur. Great theater to see a concert or show. All seats have great view of the stage. Parking is nearby and liquor is served in the lobby and mezzanine. VIP area also available.

Cancelled tickets and refunded my money because I sold them on StubHub. My wife has cancer and is feeling the ill effects of the chemo pills she has to take to stay alive. Therefore we cannot attend the show. When I explained this to the customer service rep, he accused me of being a broker.

Wonder venue in beautiful downtown Jacksonville. It is a cultural touchstone for NE Florida. I went to see Neil Degrasse Tyson. He provided a great talk comparing actual science and physics to a number of well know movies. I would go and see him again at this great theater!

This is a vice attractive historic old movie theatre in downtown Jacksonville that has been converted to a live performance venue. We have seen many concerts here and have enjoyed the quaint atmosphere of an era gone by. Parking is conveniently located about 100 yards away and normally only costs $5 for covered parking.
