I have seen many shows and always enjoyed the Broadway series. Every family member should attend. They also offer other entertainment such as comedians and great children's productions. I highly recommend attending an event. Great dining options nearby, and easy parking.

As far as stores, there are not a lot within walking distance. 4th Street is excellent for dining - big selection of restaurants. I ate at Flannery's Pub and the food was very good. All the Play houses are on Euclid which is right in Playhouse Square.

Seeing that Cleveland is #2 after broadway for shows, we get excellent selection of shows to see. I remember seeing outstanding shows here and with the parking garage so close, it makes it very fun to come and do.

I've been to plenty of shows and theatres around the country including nearby Pitt, Detroit, and NYC. I preferred Cleveland's theares over the theatres I visited in each of these cities.

I've been to Playhouse Square numerous times for concerts, plays, comedy shows, etc. The venue is excellent, with plenty of parking options once you arrive, and lots of drink/food options inside. The sound is excellent, and the staff there is very accomodating and polite. Would definitely recommend seeing something here.

Not living in an urban area, I was very surprised to discover how accesssible the theaters were. Parking seemed to be easy to navigate and plentiful; and it seemed that there were a few nice restaurants and bars close by.The Tri-C Jazz Fest events were held here; and seemed to bring out quite a diverse crowd. Nice experience!

Having 10 different venues ranging from a cabaret to a 3000+ seat theater, Playhouse Square is able to provide many different types of performances. They now house The Cleveland Playhouse (repertory theater) and the Cleveland State University Theater department. The biggest draws are the Broadway shows. The 5 main theaters (Palace, State, Ohio, Allen, and Hannah) are all beautifully restored... More

A good show at a Beautiful theater. We are fortunate to have all of these lovely restored theaters downtown with parking available and very reasonable prices. The 'red coats' are a great asset.
