Where intimacy meets performance
Step into a space designed for connection. Our 200-person theater and adjoining lounge create an intimate setting where every word resonates and every moment feels intentional.
Designed for the moments that matter
Some celebrations call for grandeur. Others call for intimacy. The Theater delivers the latter with style. Featuring professional-grade acoustics, and thoughtfully designed lighting, this space was built for the moments when you need everyone to lean in and listen.
Whether you're sharing heartfelt vows, delivering an important presentation, or hosting a performance that deserves proper staging, The Theater provides the technical excellence and atmospheric warmth that transforms good events into unforgettable experiences.
But The Theater is more than just the performance space. The adjoining cafe and lounge areas create a complete environment—places for pre-show mingling, intermission conversations, and post-event celebrations. It's everything you need in one beautifully designed package.

More than a room —
it's an atmosphere
In an age of cavernous ballrooms and impersonal conference centers, The Theater offers something increasingly valuable: genuine intimacy at scale. Two hundred people can feel like too many in the wrong space and too few in another. Here, it's just right.
The secret lies in the details. Acoustic panels that ensure clarity without echo. Lighting that can shift from bright and energizing to warm and romantic. Sight lines carefully considered so there's truly no bad seat. Custom millwork that adds warmth without sacrificing versatility. These aren't happy accidents—they're intentional design choices that make every event better.
Your guests will notice the difference, even if they can't articulate why. The clarity of the toast. The warmth of the wood. The way conversations feel easy in the lounge. The sense that someone thought about how people actually experience events, not just how they look in photos.
Professional-grade sound design ensures perfect clarity for speeches, music, and presentations without the harsh echo of typical event spaces.
At 200-person capacity, The Theater hits the sweet spot—intimate enough to feel personal, large enough to accommodate your key people.
The adjoining cafe and lounge spaces aren't an afterthought—they're essential to creating a complete event experience with natural flow.
