Team San Jose Launches Unified Website for Four Historic Theaters

Single Portal Lets Consumers Book San Jose Civic, California Theatre, Montgomery Theater and Center for the Performing Arts in One Stop

 

SAN JOSE, CA (January 29, 2013) – Now theater lovers in Silicon Valley have a helpful new tool to make planning and booking their arts season easier. Team San Jose — which manages four historic cultural theaters in Downtown San Jose on behalf the City of San Jose — launched a single, unified theater portal so theater patrons and potential performing arts promoters can more efficiently browse arts and entertainment content along with events taking place at the San Jose Civic (home to A-List concerts and events), Center for the Performing Arts (home to Broadway San Jose and Ballet San Jose), California Theatre (home to Opera San Jose, Cinequest Annual Film Festival and Symphony Silicon Valley), and Montgomery Theater (home to Children’s Musical Theater San Jose and Lyric Theatre of San Jose).

“We want to connect theater and arts lovers to be plugged into the latest information on San Jose’s innovative events in one central location they can access anytime, anywhere,” said Bill Sherry, CEO of Team San Jose. “Rather than have to review different sites for different theaters, patrons and event promoters can now research venues and buy in one easy stop.”

With a user-friendly interface, the new website offers residents and visitors new features such as:

  • Streamlined process for buying tickets at all four theaters
  • Highly specific technical information for potential event promoters, performing arts groups looking for theater informatio
  • Increased information on San Jose venues and upcoming events
  • Social media tabs with direct links to social media channels, so arts lovers can stay connected with the latest buzz from their peers.

For more information on Team San Jose’s four theaters, visit the new website at: www.sanjosetheaters.org

The four historic theaters consist of:

San Jose Civic: Built in 1934, the 3,036-seat San Jose Civic has classic Spanish mission-style architecture and has been at the core of San Jose’s cultural activity and traditions.

California Theatre: The 1,122-seat California Theatre is known today as one of the best-preserved examples of late 1920s motion picture houses in the United States.

Montgomery Theater: Built in 1936, the 475-seat theater retains its historic charm and offers audiences an intimate experience for every performance.

The Center for the Performing Arts (CPA): The new kid on the block at 40 years old, the 2,677-seat elegant CPA was designed by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation.

Make it a STAYcation this weekend!

Next to Normal at San Jose Rep

The San Jose Rep is putting on a great performance called “Next to Normal“. The show is a “rock musical about one woman’s struggle with bipolar disorder and the toll it takes on her family. Diana is having hallucinations. She makes sandwiches on the floor, bakes a birthday cake for a long deceased brother and sees her doctor (Mark Farrell) as a flamboyant rock star. Attempts to treat her condition, first with pills and then with electroshock therapy (the play was originally titled Feeling Electric), only make things worse for her and her family” says Sean Conwell from Sanjose.com.

Make a night of it and come to Spencer’s for Steaks and Chops before (or after) the show and have a great date night with that special someone. Or make it a Staycation and book a suite with us!

Reservations for Spencer’s can be made at 408-437-2170 or to book a room go to our DoubleTree by Hilton San Jose website.

For more information on the play “Next to Normal” go to their website or to sanjose.com. Enjoy!
