 2)  Chandler Center For The Arts

The Center is equipped with three theaters and a 2,000 square foot exhibition gallery.  With a total seating capacity of 1,500, the unique design of the Center allows for two rear sections of the main auditorium to rotate 180 degrees to become two more intimate performance spaces:  The 350-seat Hal Bogle Theatre and the 250-seat Recital Hall.  Patrons and artists alike have hailed the Center’s acoustics as being among the best in the country and the world.  The walls between the separate performance areas prevent sound interference, thus allowing up to three productions to run simultaneously.  You can enjoy music, dance, comedy, you name it!  For more information and events call:  480-782-2680.
