Black Box Theater

Located in South Miami Dade Cultural Arts Center, it's like a hidden secret. It's not part or like the main stage at SMDCAC... firstly it has a small entrance behind the main theatre and off to the side... like a secret entrance. Secondly the type of shows done there are far more adult oriented... shows like stand up comedies (which we know can be foul mouthed) and of course the two times I have gone there including the most recent has been to see burlesque/cabaret.... which is certainly someplace you want a secret entrance for...

The most recent show there, Erika Moon's Burlesque Avant-Garde was incredible. Certainly something you don't expect to see in theater. It was fun, sexy, funny, and memorable. I had seen one of her prior burlesque shows at this theater about 3 years ago with an ex of mine (Erika Moon's Burlesque Maginfique). Most recently I took my brother and a very close yelp friend of mine to it and we all loved it... I know I certainly did... I think my jaw dropped dozens of times.

It's a small, very intimate space... you can see what's going on the stage simply because the space is so small. It also has a small bar which serves snacks, beer, wine and hard liquor.. and it's brought to your table while you are watching the event... again a difference from the main stage. I think it's a wonderful little venue and certainly one which I have fond memories of. I recommend anyone in the area or in miami to try this theatre out and the different types of shows it gives you won't find in your typical theater.

I looked at reviews for Boca Black Box prior to going there. The reviews were very mixed, lots of 5's and lots of 1's and 2's

My wife and I decided to check it out for ourselves. We are very happy we did!

The venue itself is great. It is theater style, with about 15 rows each with about 15 seats. Their are tables to the sides of the venue. The stage is raised and the back half of the rows are tiered. Every seat has a great view. Not a bad seat in the house.

The help was extremely friendly and helpful. Everything about this place is great.

We saw Motown Magic, who were excellent. The variety of shows is very good.

Overall, I would say that our experience was wonderful. We will check who is playing there and buy tickets whenever we comeback to our condo in Florida.
