If you haven't been here...GO. It's a great place to see a play. You will feel great when you leave. The actors do a tremendous job and you will feel such a sense of community!

We love going to this little playhouse every year, it can be hard to get tickets so we purchase them on line before we arrive for the season.

Have seen some great plays and some not so good. It is a small theatre, so advance ticket purchase is a must. We have found the better known comedies are best to see.

Very good little theatre company. Well performed. Nice theatre - physically. Several productions every year and numerous other special concert offerings. Reasonably priced.

We're staying in a condo in Englewood, Florida for several weeks and thought we'd check out the local regional theater in the area. We found the Lemon Bay Playhouse through google and checked out the trip advisor reviews and decided to give t a try. A play called "An Inspector Calls" was playing and we got 2 tickets. We didn't...

Have seen some enjoyable light comedies at Lemon Bay Playhouse but the serious JP Priestly play "The Inspector Calls" was a surprise and a delight; finally - something with some substance. A lot of theater experience showed on the stage though where there was little it showed (doorbells & phones ringing late, one actor channeling young Brando - both provided... More

Adorable small local theater where the actors do not need microphones and the small intimate atmosphere makes it comfortable to laugh at funny scenes of a play.

This is a small local theatre. They always do a great job. The wine and cheese at intermisson is a real bonus.

A very small theatre, but with outstanding productions. Just say "Arsenic and Old Lace" on their small stage, but as good as I have seem in much larger venues. They really need a larger building.

As a volunteer at this wonderful intimate community theater, my experiences have been so rewarding that I sing LBP praises to everyone I know. I know how hard the actors and backstage staff work to put on a performance and being on that side of the production, the audience reaction is well worth the effort. We have the best audiences...
