Fodor's Expert Review Madinat Theatre and Amphitheatre

Madinat Theatre, an intimate, classically styled space, is smaller in scale and plays international films. Where the Dubai Opera House has picked up the grand classical operas, orchestras, and musicals, Madinat has an eclectic mix of revue-style shows, stand-up comedy, classical concerts and plays to cater to the community's diverse interests. Most of the shows are family-friendly. The group also manage the Madinat Amphitheatre, an outdoor stage that is framed by the waters and glowing wind towers of the Madinat Jumeirah complex. Here they hold festivals and markets, and the occasional evening musical performance.
