Josephine Theater

The Josephine is a great little theater that accommodates local performances, as well as smaller touring shows. It is rough about the edges, but the management is gradually making improvements to the interior, as well as the lighting and sound. The seating capacity is just under 300, but the stage is amply sized. There is an adjacent parking lot, but try to come early as it is slightly under the necessary capacity.
Just past the art-​deco lobby is a bar with small tables for seating. In addition to cocktails, they also have pre-​packaged snacks like chips. If you want, you can bring your drink inside the auditorium.
This year, I have attended two Opera Piccola productions at this facility. The second performance has improved technical production, with good lighting and sound. This fall, the «Musical Geniuses» series will include music and anecdotal stories of popular artists including The Beatles and Irving Berlin. «The Divas of Hollywood» starring Alan Palmer will be staged in November. For a complete list of performances, see their website:

Great, intimate theater! I never knew this place existed until my husband competed in a Guitar Wars competition being held there. It’s an older theater obviously but it has this super cool old San Antonio vibe that you can feel as soon as you enter.
The lobby has a small bar and a few round tables scattered around along with fairly decent restrooms. When they draw those big red curtains back, you see the theater that is a pretty good size, probably a third as big as the Majestic. The rows of chairs are classic green velvet and pretty comfy.
I’d love to come back here and see what kind of plays they offer, my only critique is that the power and sound equipment seem to be a bit rusty but then again this is an older theater.
