Thank you !!

The Kimmel Center for the
The Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts contains 2 theaters under 1 roof, Verizon Hall (cap. 2500 seats) and the Perelman Theater (cap.650 seats). Got to catch 2 King Crimson shows at the Verizon Hall in 2014, it has a unique "cello shape" with excellent acoustics and sight lines. A great place to se a show.
