Pump up the romance with a trip to the theatre

Published on 07 February 2023

Going to the theatre has been a cherished pastime for hundreds of years. Here are five reasons why seeing a show at Frankston Arts Centre is a perfect date night idea.

1. The thrill of live performance: Whether you see a play, a band or a musical, there are no second chances, no opportunities for an extra take if performers forget a line, and no safety net. Whether everything goes smoothly or not, a theatre date is always memorable.

2. It’s the perfect mix of glamour and casual: Date night at the theatre gives the opportunity to frock up, or to wear your favourite jeans and top.

3. Avoid awkward silences: On a theatre date, you always have a conversation starter. It is easier to construct a conversation around a show, especially if neither one of you has any idea what it is about.

4. Location, location, location: With big names and theatre productions touring to Frankston, there is no need to travel to the city. Have a quick pre-show drink at the foyer bar or enjoy one of the many local bars and restaurants before or after.

5. Be swept away to faraway places: A trip to the theatre offers the opportunity to travel to other lands and times from the comfort of your seat.  From the classics to contemporary performances, you can see it all at Frankston Arts Centre.
