Who is Eight O'Clock Theatre?
Since 1982, Eight O'Clock Theatre has entertained theatre-goers in the Tampa Bay area with live performances, bringing Broadway, Off-Broadway and original productions to the stage, first in the Largo Community Center, and, since 1996, in the Tonne Playhouse at the Largo Cultural Center, now called the Central Park Performing Arts Center.
Winner of "Best of the Bay" from Tampa Bay Magazine and Best Community Theatre at the 2013 Florida Theatre Conference, Eight O'Clock Theatre continually brings top quality entertainment to the Tonne Playhouse stage. Whether you are a season ticket holder or are considering becoming one, this award-winning community theatre group welcomes your interest and support.
Live Orchestra
With the rare exception, Eight O'Clock Theatre is proud to be one of the few Tampa Bay theatres to offer a live orchestra with each production. In most cases, a full 10-piece orchestra accompanies our performers.
State of the Art performance space
The Central Park Performing Arts Center is located in the heart of the beautiful Largo Central Park. Eight O'Clock Theatre is proud to be the community theatre in residence.
