Miami’s Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts is designed as a complex of single purpose state-of-the-art performance halls along the lines of New York’s Lincoln Center.

The Center’s performance halls include the Carnival Studio Theater, a flexible intimately designed black-box space for small-scale theater and dance presentations; the Knight Concert Hall, designed for classical and popular music concerts and serving as a venue for Miami’s orchestral groups; and the Sanford and Dolores Ziff Ballet Opera House, capable of accommodating the grand sets and scenery employed in major theatrical productions, including opera, ballet, and Broadway musicals.
