This theater is absolutely beautiful. Aside from being gorgeous to look at by itself, it is run by friendly people. We went to see Book of Mormon and there were plenty loveseat Usher's to help us find our correct area. Restrooms were very clean and the overall experience was near perfect.
Loved it ....Always enjoy the Straz...easy to get to ...
Great Christmas holiday concert by the Florida Orchestra.
I never been there before it was awesome great experience.
Straz center is a great place to see a show. Parking is getting more difficult, so get there early.
Very nice theater, even though the parking situation is a little difficult.
Great time with the wife,parking was easy in the area
Love this place. We went to the Jaeb theater tonight for Forever Plaid. It was fabulous!
It was really a grand experience. Found a parking spot across the street. Having parking so close was very very good. The customer service of are entering the property and going to the Gathering was also very good. I thought the service could have brought around more food more quickly. But it was a good experience nonetheless. The individuals who are at the door to let you go into the actual seating area are very good at their jobs they take the ticket take you to the road explained to you where your seats are and you are so comfortable with that experience. I'm looking forward to the next 7 shows being as good as this or even better. The play was off-the-charts fantastic. The actors were great the whole writing and production of the play was off-the-charts good. Thank you Straz theater you hit a homerun. Michael T.
It was beautiful. The only problem I saw was it was freezing in there.
The play was fantastic. Would definitely come again
Not a bad seat there! Anastasia was incredible. What a venue easy to park and get around. Excellent service convenient refreshments.
Fantastic place to spend a very nice evening on a date or with your loved one. Very elegant yet casual very nice
Loved everything except the front row experience. Row A is so close to the stage, we all had to look to one side as we were so far below the stage and right against the stage. We could only see a couple of the members of the orchestra. The front row is probably the worst seat in the entire place.
Lots of parking. Large venue with ample seating. Rows have plenty of legroom for tall people or to get by to your seat.
Had a great time seeing wicked! Seats were not very comfortable for a 3 hour show but they did the job. Theater was clean and staff were amazing.
Nice outside area otherwise too much security for a graduation it was hot
Wonderful place to see live entertainment. Beautiful theater and every seat has a good view of the stage.
The Straz Is So Easy To Access, To Park, To Be Seated And Enjoy. People Flow Was Smooth. Fantastic! This Was No Doubt. This is A Great Venue. I've Been To A Few Shows Here. The Bring It Live Tour Was Awesome! Mrs. D And The Dancing Dolls More
Called to reserve tickets for the nutcracker and asked about purchasing over the phone or in person, I was reassured in person the tickets would not run out upon my arrival in 1 hour. To our family's disappointment the show was sold and they said there are no guarantee and we should have done it over the phone in advance when a staff member on the bluetooth speaker in our car with the whole family assured us otherwise. Ruined our kids last day of being in FL before flying out was a waste of time. Would have gone to Orlando's cirquedesoliet
Beautiful, well-kept theater. Not a bad seat in the house.
Their seasons are filled with great entertainment. The theater is terrific.
Beautiful theater...seats are comfortable....and easy access!
Had a wonderful time here. Get there early to get good parking on lower levels of parking garages.
Great acoustics. As with most places, it needs larger women's rooms! Easy Uber/Lyft puck up.
Loved the venue. We saw the show "chicago" the performance was great. Intermission was troublesome for the ladies, as lines for restrooms were long.i feel that a large show venue loses a sense of intimacy when you can't meet the cast after a show. Loved it other than that.
Hamilton was AMAZING! I thought Nik Walker played it too "cool" and our Commander in Chief should have loomed a little larger. Erin Clemmons was breathtaking!!!
Great conservatory and art center. Kids Summer Camp ate excellent!!!!
Great theatre. Can be hectic getting to bathroom during intermissions and getting around before and after venues due to volume of people with little place to go
Great center for the performing arts. Located right in the River Walk in Downtown Tampa.
Great show, great seats in row U. Wish there was an aisle down the middle though.
Beautiful location to see plays, concerts, and attend meetings. I would reccomend being apart of their email list. Once and a while you will receive emails for plays at an extremely cheap price. For those Wicked fans,the show usually comes here every year around January.
Have had Broadway passes for a few years now. Good quality shows this season. Impossible to find inexpensive parking. Wish there was a middle aisle in the orchestra section of Morsani Hall.
Great place to catch a show! Great food options that are walkable from the center as well!
This is a great place to see Broadway quality shows, orchestral performances, and Musical presentations .
Great theater. I only have two complaints. They only have 1 changing table for babies at the front. They need to have more for their shows that are for children. Also once I got close to the building, my phone wouldn't work and I couldn't get my app to open to pull up the tickets. Need to have better wifi or something!
Overpriced, long lines, sell you tickets when there not required?
Saw Les Miz ... just incredible! The volunteers at Straz are awesome and super friendly. Great downtown waterfront vibe!
Parking is very expensive. I'm handicapped and yet I still had to walk a long way. The show was great.
Great area for walks day or night and just relaxing and bite to eat and drink.
Have been here for a couple of plays now and a few other events and have been extremely satisfied every time!! Have yet to come across a bad seat and the staff is amazing!!
Saw Tyler Perry as Madea. Great facility, lighting and sound.
Great venue for enjoying the performing arts. Staff is friendly and helpful. Broadway and music shows galore!
Incredible place to visit and take in one of their many different types of shows and plays. Impeccably kept and staff is awesome.
Very nice place for performing arts and a lot of events too
Looking for Broadway shows, this is the placs to go.
It is an interesting venue in terms of design and layout. We attended Hamilton, after having seen it previously at the Dr. Phillip's Center here in Orlando. As there are multiple stages withing the Straz, a better map layout at the entryways would improve communication and reduce confusion.
The exiting process is also a hot mess, and there should be a process review to see if something could be improved.
The staff and seats were awesome and they also have their own security so you feel safe
We went and saw Hamilton and got the before show buffet.
The food was very good and the facility is beautiful - right on the river!!
Great venue for performances. Go see the Florida orchestra!!!
Went here to see Phantom of the Opera and everything was great! Beautiful view and friendly staff!
Beautiful,classy venue inside. Parking garage leaves a few things to be desired though, such as the stairwell not being marked inside to let you know what level you are on. The larger shows tend to completely grid-lock their parking garage to where you could not even back out of your parking space and vehicles that were in-line to exit had not moved for probably 15-20 minutes or more. We saw people give up, exit their vehicles, and just walk off somewhere - yes; it was that bad! They have concession stands / bars throughout the facility - the night we went a 12oz can of soda or a 16oz bottled water was $3 - not too bad. Try to use the covered, elevated walkway that connects the garage to the Straz Center itself; it makes things a lot easier. Make sure to use the restroom before leaving or just hang out for 20 minutes or so until exiting the garage becomes feasible, lest you find yourself stuck in unmoving garage traffic with a terrible urge to use 'the facilities' :D
Saw Wicked for the first time at the Straz Center. Nice facilities, friendly staff, great sound and views from all around. Parking is kind of a hassle when they're at full demand, but that's to be expected at any large scale event.
The staff is always very courteous and very friendly.
Beautiful place. Leaving the parking garage after a show is an epic journey. Make sure your phone is changed.
Seats are situated wisely. Its further than It showed in diagrams n over priced.
Classy place but the employees are not classy at all
Always a good time. Excellent shows and a great venue.
