About Perelman Theater at The Kimmel Center

Perelman Theater is an intimate theater and music hall within the Kimmel Center for the Performing Arts at 300 S Broad St in Philadelphia. The Kimmel Center opened in December 2001, and Perelman Theater functions as a flexible performance space within the complex. It is operated under the Ensemble Arts Philly umbrella, which includes The Philadelphia Orchestra and Kimmel Center, Inc. With approximately 650 seats, the hall is designed for recitals, chamber performances, and staged presentations where clear sightlines and acoustics matter.

The venue is part of Philadelphia's flagship performing-arts complex on the Avenue of the Arts, South Broad Street. It hosts chamber music, recitals, jazz, Opera Philadelphia productions, dance, theatrical performances, family programming, and other intimate seated events. Its smaller scale helps create a close connection between the stage and the audience, while its location inside the Kimmel Center places it alongside the larger Marian Anderson Hall.

Perelman Theater is valued as one of Philadelphia's premier intimate performance spaces, with a flexible configuration that serves both recital-style performances and proscenium theater productions.

Location & Transportation

Transit: The venue is well served by SEPTA's Broad Street Line, with Walnut-Locust station steps away.

Driving and Parking: Center City parking garages and lots are available nearby, including garages serving the Kimmel Center and the surrounding Avenue of the Arts. Street parking is limited, and garage parking can fill on busy performance nights, so arriving early is the best way to reduce last-minute stress.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are practical along Broad Street and adjacent side streets. Because the venue sits in a dense Center City location, expect congestion immediately before and after performances.

  • Know your entrance. Enter through the Kimmel Center's main Broad Street entrance, then proceed to Perelman Theater within the complex.
  • Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
