Broward Performing Arts Foundation Review

Saw Hamilton- extraordinary! Brilliant! Best show ever!

Good parking upon arrival and reasonable parking fee. Easy access to theater.
Friendly and very courteous staff.
Very comfortable seating.
Shows are always 'top drawer'.
Very easy exit to parking and quick exit and access to highways.
How could this be better ?? It is outstanding.

Lovely facility, comfortable seats, but audience clueless. Talking, noisy eating (who thought it was a good idea to allow food?) not helped by lack of usher presence. The concept of shut up and pay attention apparently not universal in Broward County.

Very nice venue. I love the variety of performances available. Easy access as well. Staff are very polite and helpful. So thankful we have a great venue for the performing arts in Broward County.

The shows are always amazing and the staff are always pleasant. But valet is too expensive $25.00 for a 2 hour show and snacks and drinks are a bit expensive as well.

A true theatre for Fort Lauderdale! Plenty of programming for all ages, amazing venues, and superb service.

It is a beautiful theater that does not have a bad seat. There are a wide variety of shows to see and they're are a lot of parking options. The food and drinks are fantastic.

Pricey but the best in town. Worth your time and loyalty. Support the arts.

Belinda Smiths. Is the closest thing I've seen to Whitney Houston. International band and back up dancers they were absolutely fabulous. Unfortunately only one show in ft. Lauderdale. Very enjoyable show. My very wonderful and generous friend Debbie treated Nancy and myself to second rowe orchestra seats. Great night!

We're charter season ticket holders. The reason for the 3 stars is that the seats are so uncomfortable.

Great place and very helpful happy staff. I will definitely recommend this place and would definitely attend more events here.

Wonderful experience and the nutcracker was such a great show

I love the place and the convenience to get from the parking lot to the main building. The crew and the staff are amazing, courteous and very helpful. However, I found the chairs to be not as comfortable as I would like them to be especially when I was contemplating the Opera. This is why I didn't rated it with five stars. It won't hurt to invest I need more comfortable seating experience do enjoy the show.

Great venue. Easy parking. Great place to see a show and walk around the town.

I was visiting for the Kansas concert. And at the end the staff was very very rude. One of the staff told my father to ''shut up". Also they were don't talk loud when they NEED TO. Never will come back her EVER AGAIN.

Great place to take Children. Only complaint is the very overpriced parking. Very cool place for all performances

This place is renown. I basically grew up here and all of my visits have been nothing less than a superior experience. Job well done

Got asked for money 3 times while in the parking garage across the street.

My husband and I attended the Miami city ballet's performance of the nutcracker here. I didn't want to spend a ton of money and ended up with seats about 10-15 rows from the top in the balcony for less than 30 each. The setup is so well done that I ended up forgetting how far we were from the stage because the view was still fantastic. Of course the talent of the dancers had something to do with that as well but I do think the interior is well designed. The sound was really nice, the seats were comfortable, the bar prices were reasonable compared to most places with a captive customer base. We also were able to stand on a lovely outdoor balcony during intermission. Parking was in a structure right across the street, very reasonably priced and organized so there were no traffic jams on the way in or out. I just generally thought the building and the landscaping were really beautiful and made the evening feel really formal and nice.

Acoustically, best theater in south Florida , bar none. Performances & shows, top notch! Docents are charming & helpful. And The Staff are the definition of Customer Excellence.

The south Florida Symphony Orchestra is superb an awesome! Amaturo theater is a great venue.

Outstanding theatre venue. Professional all the way. Great volunteers

Always an amazing night at this theater. Got to take in the king and i and it was absolutley fantastic. Never disappointing

Our visit to the Broward Center was for a graduation. It was wonderful.

Place was outstanding, very helpful staff,had a great time

Pavlo was amazing! I loved how he plays the bouzouki and the way he moves as he plays. He really feels the music when he plays. I loved it!

Broward is great parking is getting really expensive at the garage across from theatre

Years ago I saw David Copperfield here It was amazing

Hamilton!! Love this venue! Very nice and beautiful on the inside.

If their were no disgusting people here it would be a 5. Not employees.

Great lunch pre show at Mezzo lounge, then a terrific opera!

Fantasia concert the inside place was beautiful the concert section was small but organized they served finger foods and brand name drinks..the servers was polite and was having a good time also that was awesome had a great time.. valet parking was crowded but they squeezed us in

Architecture designed so the sound is perfect from any vantage point.

I had a fabulous time at the broward performing art center. However the no drink policy in the theater is beyond ridiculous. We spent $42 on drinks just to be told by a friendly Usher we couldn't bring them inside. I understand you want to keep the theater clean but it would have been nice if the bartender told us ahead of time

Very nice place with the feel of small cozy venue with a surprising amount of seating. It rained as we were exiting and getting across the sky bridge to the parking lot was a bit of a challenge.

What a classic and classy venue! Well maintained with incredible staff!

There's nothing quite as exciting as walking up to this spectacular venue to see a show.

Beautiful building, good seats. Most of the ushers and workers are friendly, but I had a bad experience with one woman in particular selling food. Very snooty and rude. But overall a good experience.

Always a beautiful place to visit with the best concerts and off Broadway theater performances like Hamilton.
Try to visit Marti's Bistro before your show.

Amazing!!! If you are thinking of taking classes here, do it!! They are professionals, and you actually learn.

Broward Center for the Performing Arts is just stunning. Definitely some where to come for a show.

Great venue surrounded by bars, restaurants which makes it great for a walk-outing. Seats a little crammed for my taste, reminded me of sitting in an airplane.

Love being able to share my love for the theater with my children here. Always clean. Staff friendly and helpful. Valet fast and efficient. We are season ticket holders because they have the best shows in South Florida. Not Miami, not Palm Beach but ft. Lauderdale. Always a great night coming here

Really nice Experience we went there to see Shen Yun! The theater was clean and looks decorative.

A theater that's new, clean and up to date with live Broadway, fair prices, food, bar and a kind friendly staff. Plenty of parking.

Although we did not get to see our show, it was cancelled due to a power outage.rescheduled at ahowtime, I must commend the staff for their professionalism. Everyone worked so hard and efficiently to ensure that everyone got out safely and in a timely manner. Our tickets are being honored for a rescheduled performance.Kudos

I see that Bob Dylan is performing here. we saw him at least 2 years ago at Nova Southeastern University. The tickets were expensive and Dylan doesn't have his voice anymore - it was very disappointing and a waste of money. Can't imagine how much worse he sounds now!!

Good place to have fun but the seats are uncomfortable and too closed to the other seats...

Just a nice theater that is the right size w great acoustics

Great place if you can get there. Went for a Saturday matinee and there was no valet or any parking garages available nearby. Had to walk 3/4 a mile to park and missed part of the show. You shouldn t have an event area without the parking structures to support the clientele .

Seats were cramped in orchestra section and no cup holders for drinks. Staff was friendly though.

They have a great arts education program for adults and kids.

Venue was great but parking was horrible...especially getting out of the parking garage.

Beautiful theater elegant and with parking connected to it which is good in cases of rain

Beautil night sitting out on terrace on a chilly night, the trees with little lights made it magical. Great theater, enjoying every performance.

Fabulous place with different kinds of events but they must deal with the parking problem..

Nice facility, really not a bad seat in the house.

Stephen Stills and Judy Collins concert was horrible. Walked out!!
