Performance Spaces
There are two performing spaces in the Theaters at The Drake: The Louis Bluver Theatre - located closer to the Pine Street end of Hicks - and the Proscenium Theatre - located closer to Spruce Street. Please check the individual production pages for more information about which space to enter.
Azuka Theatre respectfully acknowledges that our work places are situated on land that is not ours - Lenapehoking, the ancestral and spiritual homeland of the Lenni Lenape. We pay respect and honor to the caretakers of this land, past to present, and into the future. Furthermore, we acknowledge the legacy of slavery in Philadelphia and that we benefit from systems and structures funded by the sale of and built by the hands of enslaved people.
