The Booth Playhouse is the Blumenthal's hidden room, a 434 seat hall upstairs in the same North Tryon building as the grand Belk Theater. Where the big hall downstairs does spectacle, the Booth does proximity, cabaret nights, small plays, comedy, and intimate concerts where the performer can see every face.
For music, this is one of Uptown's best kept secrets, a seated room small enough that an acoustic show needs barely any amplification, with the polish of a professional hall rather than a club. When a songwriter you love books the Booth, buy fast, a few hundred seats disappear quickly.
Logistics are identical to Belk Theater, same building, same Uptown decks and rail walk, same restaurant filled blocks. Just follow the signs up rather than into the big hall, and double check your ticket, two stages share the address.
