Located in the heart of Fort Lauderdale’s Holiday Park, Wells Hall at The Parker is a historic cultural landmark with a legacy dating back to 1967. Originally known as the Parker Playhouse, the venue recently underwent a significant multi-million dollar renovation that preserved its neoclassical charm while introducing state-of-the-art acoustics and modern lounges. As one of the city's oldest and most treasured performance spaces, it offers an intimate yet grand setting that has served the South Florida community for over five decades. Managed by the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, the theater has become a premier destination for world-class stand-up comedy. The stage regularly hosts a diverse lineup of touring headliners, featuring notable performers such as Kathy Griffin, Paul Reiser, and Jessica Kirson. With a layout designed for clear sightlines from every seat, the venue provides a vibrant, professional environment where fans can experience major comedy specials in a polished, historic atmosphere.
