One of the best theater troupes in Sarasota stages productions year-round in varying venues, which include the Historic Asolo Theater on the Ringling estate.
Rescued from demolition in the late 1970s, this 1926 movie palace is not only a Tampa City landmark, it’s also listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The gorgeous throwback to Hollywood’s golden age has a charming indoor Mediterranean courtyard, replica antique statuary, ornate architectural artistry, and a Mighty Wurlitzer theater organ that’s still in use. In addition to showcasing foreign, independent, and classic films daily, it regularly hosts community and educational events, concerts, and historic tours.
A long-established community theater, having launched such actors as Montgomery Clift and Paul Reubens, this troupe performs comedies, special events, live concerts, and musicals.
