Show Palace Dinner Theatre

About Me

The Show Palace Dinner Theater is the only professional dinner theater in Tampa Bay. Our theater hires members of Actors' Equity Association, The American Guild of Variety Artists, and Non-Union performers from all over the country. Many of our performers have come directly from the Broadway stage while others have gone on to Broadway, national tours and regional houses. For the past ten years, thousands of audience members have traveled long distances to experience our first-class entertainment and fine dining. The St. Petersburg Times, The Tampa Tribune and many other prestigious publications have rated our theater as one of the finest theatrical and dining experiences in the state of Florida.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

The Show Palace would love to hear from actors, directors, and technicians who have worked with the Show Palace in the past 10 years. We also hope to hear from patrons who have enjoyed our past and current productions. This site will be updated on a regular basis with news and information relating to the Show Palace. New visitors can use this site as a way to learn more about our upcoming shows.
