Title: Theaters/Theatres in your town
Post by: EC on May 09, 2005, 12:24 PM
Amigos. I'm researching smaller venue theaters in the US. If you felt inclined to list theaters that you know of in your town, I would be grateful, and I can research them past that point. We know all of the bigger ones, but the smaller ones are trickier to find. Even just a name you've heard of, or a show you've seen somewhere... It would be terrifically helpful. :)

(Actually, European friends, we're looking at overseas right now as well, so your input would also be helpful. Again, the bigger ones we probably know about, but the smaller ones would be wicked.)

Thank you very much.

Sorry, should've been more specific - a theater where you would watch plays.  :)

I work for a couple of theatre companies, and we have some shows we're going to be touring, so we're looking for appropriate venues.  :)

What's not on there is the Auditorium Theater, it's very nice, acoustically and the decor is smashing!
