Both were excellent and I will definitely be back again to watch the next play. Watching local theater whether community or professional is so magical. It gives young artists the opportunity to be seen and allows local communities to enjoy the arts without the heavy price tag.

The play "Black Sheep" tells of a youth who was "tried as an adult" and served ten years in prison. Several characters agree Carl should not have been "tried as an adult." With prison behind him Carl is moving into his wealthy uncle and aunt's Guest House on their property. It's a tale of racism and touches, in a monologue, on elements of the Holocaust, too. This is theater of the absurd conjuring up a Jean Paul-Sartre play. Wooden barrels full of African art sculptures arrive one by one at the property because his uncle wants Carl, who is black, to feel at home. The play is also a study of the wealthy and how they are even said to "walk differently" for they have no worries. Also at the property is Carl's cousin Max who likes going into the guest house to "be alone." The uncle's wife seems to have a romantic interest in Carl as does Max's fiancé so Carl is rather popular with the ladies. The uncle is concerned that "people" are disappearing yet his uncle and aunt try to separately enlist Carl's help making people "disappear." There is a lot of talk of family and this riveting play will have one wondering just what sort of family this is. If you are into law, know this play touches upon Criminal Law and Wills & Trusts. Throughout it people appear and disappear in the barrel(s) from Africa. Due to sexual content I'd categorize this play as an explicit "R." That is I wouldn't bring Grandma (Abuela) to see. Contact Roderick Randle, Box Office Manager, for Group sales tickets if you want. Tiny theater is located directly on Main Street, Miami Lakes.

For you history buffs…read more The Lincoln Theatre exemplifies the worldliness and glamour of Art Deco. Its voluptuously curved corner, sweeping horizontal canopies, stylized sculptural reliefs, and brilliantly lit marquee brought energy to a Miami Beach still recovering from a 1926 hurricane and the Great Depression. Thomas W. Lamb collaborated with Robert E. Collins on the design of the building: Lamb was a noted theater architect in New York who crafted the interiors for the Wolfson-Meyer Theater Company, while Collins was a prominent local architect who designed the nearby Cameo Theatre. The Scottish-born Lamb studied at the Cooper Union, and began designing theaters in the 1910s. He designed movie palaces for Fox and Loew's theater companies, and had worked with Joseph Urban on the 1927 Ziegfeld Theatre on Broadway. The Wolfson-Meyer Theater Company was founded in 1925 by brothers-in-law Mitchell Wolfson and Sidney Meyer, who had earlier commissioned Collins to design the Tower Theatre in Little Havana. The Lincoln Theatre stopped showing films in the 1980s. In 1988 Michael Tilson Thomas leased the building for use by the New World Symphony..The orchestral academy hired Gerald F. DeMarco to renovate the structure, which they purchased in 1990. As the New World Symphony prepared to move into its new Frank Gehry-designed facilities in 2011, the Lincoln Theatre was transformed again. This time, the prime tenant was clothing retailer H&M. Architect Allan Shulman, working with architect-of-record Kobi Karp and interior architect Jeffrey Taylor, adapted the former auditorium into a dramatic retail space, which is visible on the exterior through enormous storefront windows cut through the rear facade.

Now, I am an adult and my brother's guardian, which I thought seemed obvious. Keep this in mind, this movie is PG-13, and my brother is 17. But, as I was asking for directions to one of the employees which theater the movie was playing in, they denied us entry saying "He can't come in without his parents." When I went to explain that I'm my brother's guardian they said, "Yeah, but a guardian isn't a parent. We recently changed our policy so you can't get in." I was genuinely confused, and wondering if this employee didn't know the definition of a legal guardian was, and we don't have access to our parents because they were out of the country on vacation. Plus, I had already bought one adult and child ticket and our snacks totaling to just over $40! They called the manager and they eventually let us in, so thankfully we still got to see our movie and had a good time. I just wasn't expecting one of the staff members trying to intimidate us. The only reason I'm not giving this place a one star is because the rest of the staff was very nice and the movie was stellar - just beware!

This is the Coconut Grove Playhouse. It was once the epicenter of the Miami theater scene. It opened on January 3, 1927 as part of the Paramount movie theater with a D.W. production of Satan of Sorrows. The 1,130 seat theater was designed by architect Richard Kiehnel of Kiehnel and Elliott. It was built by Miami local realtors Irving J. Thomas and Fin L. Pierce. Albert Peacock served as the contractor. The building originally had seven stores on the first floor, ten offices, on the second floor, and a third story of apartments. It was the second movie theatre on the east coast of Florida to be air conditioned. It also had the largest Wurlitzer organ in the United States. Although now blue, the original color of the building was sienna. In the 1930's the theater closed due to the Florida land boom bust, an economic downturn caused by two hurricanes and the Great Depression. During WWII the theater found new purpose as a school to train Air Force navigators. After the war the building was again closed until 1955 when George Engle, an oilman spent one million dollars on the theater to remodel it to accommodate the Coconut Grove Playhouse, Miami's first live theater. The renovated theater reopened on January 3, 1956, with the U.S. premiere of Samuel Beckett's existential play, Waiting for Godot starring Bert Lahr and Tom Ewell. Financial success eluded Engle in the ensuing years and the theater again closed in 1960. Producer Zev Buffman bought the building in March 1966 for more than $1 million. In 1970, former actor Eddie Bracken and his associates purchased the building. When Bracken's group failed to pay its debts, the Playhouse was sold at auction at the county courthouse. Arthur Cantor and Robert Fishko purchased the theater, and opened it for the 1971-72 winter season. Cantor and Fishko sold their interests in 1977. In 1980 the State of Florida became the owners. In 2004 the title was transferred to the Coconut Grove Playhouse LLC Inc. Through the years many famous people have performed at the theater including Jessica Tandy, Tallulah Bankhead, Carol Channing, Liza Minnelli, Linda Lavin, Bea Arthur, George C. Scott, Colleen Dewhurst, and Ethel Merman. On November 22, 1996, the Late Show with David Letterman originated from the theater. In 2005 the Coconut Grove Playhouse was designated historic by the City of Miami's Historic and Environmental Preservation Board. Four million dollars in debt, the theater abruptly closed in 2006. It has not been used since. In 2013 The Actors Playhouse in Coral Gables and the University of Miami were able to get inside and rescue many of the items including costumes, playbills, documents, and posters. The items are being stored at the University of Miami. The Playhouse was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2018. It is so sad to see this majestic building with so much history shuttered. A master plan to renovate the theater was approved by Miami's Environmental and Historic Board on April 4, 2017 but it was appealed. Since then nothing has been done as the building is broken into by vagrants and allowed to rot. Miami has so many beautifully preserved historic buildings.
