Jackie Gleason Theater

Worst venue I’ve ever seen a show at. They seated people 40 mins into the show. We had lights shinned in our eyes from ushers who didn’t know the seat aisles. People talking behind us waiting to be seated and music playing every time the door opened. All while the performer was on. Yeah, the guy I paid to see. Attitudes of staff were awful too. Save your money and your time. See your shows elsewhere.

Erika Moon’s Burlesque Magnifique
I laughed, I cheered, I cat called. I fell in love to be broken hearted by finally finding something really stunningly cool in Miami .
I was brought to a chair at the rear of the house, I was scolded a few times as I tried to get a closer view of the stunning host. Vita. Who had me in stitches all night with her hilarious amount of talent with banana and a ballon.
Aurora Natrix, had me eyes wide open! I could not cheer loud enough of her sensual way of lacy movement.
I had quench my encouragement with a libation of a $ 18 glass of low grade wine served in a plastic glass. (Tip#1 don’t mention how nasty a plastic glass of $ 18 low grade wine is.)
Erika Moon goes on stage quickly distracting me to an exciting erotic, exacting pleasing movement of pure sensual movement and delight!
Nothing in the world could keep my eyes from going anywhere but on her performance.
Two things to do in Miami
Go to beach
Go see Erika moon’s show productions!
A real gift to Miami!

Saw BritFloyd at this venue. Easy and inexpensive parking across the street in a parking garage. $ 4 for 4 hours. Not a bad seat in this place. So much better than the Hard rock which to me is like an over sized gym. Comfortable seats. Amazing light show and good acoustics. Concert itself was awesome.

Recently I was there for the Lana Del Rey concert we got there five hours early, there was already a line was a long line which was expected. But there was barely any security the few security you saw were standing around by the trees getting shade from the sun and not doing much else to control the line, skipping or fights. they did not set up any barricades or have any kind of organization to the line. When it was time for the doors to open instead of doing it in a organized fashion literally everybody just ran for the doors since they were no barricades, organization or security to control it. Which led to a mini mod squishing and pushing each other. After that they then yelled if you were getting your ticket through credit card you needed to go to another door which led to another run off. It was absolutely ridiculous. Then that whole group *which was pretty much everyone* was squished together so tightly you could barely move your arms and the people to every side of you were squished against you pushing every time they would let one person through. It truly was as if there was some kind of apocalypse and everyone was trying to get to safety. As a person with severe anxiety this was a very horrifying moment for me you literally could not move a inch. if there was any kind of movement everyone started to push again. After what seemed like forever, we got near the front my sister and I were speaking about how ridiculous this situation was and how we have never been to any kind of concert where it has been this disorganized we have been too large shows, small shows, punk shows, festivals everything never have we experienced anything this unprofessional and honestly scary. Which apparently the security in front of us didn’t like and started to argue not aggressively but argue with my sister about what we were saying after about a minute of it and laughing at my sister for saying we came 5 hours early my sister just simply told him that I have never been to show that has been this disorganized, We payed a lot for tickets which he replied «no show is cheap here» which to me proves even more the point as to why it should have been organized. this is a well-​known venue for shows. In the end it was a unorganized, unprofessional security team that didn’t know how to do their job or maintain the line or control fights I saw various fights throughout the show but I only saw them take care of one. which is insane to me. they get paid to do all these things and they didn’t do any. It was a very horrifying experience especially for somebody like me with anxiety and definitely not something I expected from such a highly well-​known venue. on the other hand Lana Del Rey sounded amazing but my mind was in such a bad place from the previous events I could barely enjoy the show

Many awesome ballets are performed here, concerts and much much more, comes with a strict dress code Suit and Collar, shirt will suffice as the soaring heat of the sun is to too much to wear a suit, must have shirt collar and bow tie !!!
