Thread: What Skills Are Needed To Place A Theatre?!
)- The stage is not able to be decorated
- Nalargons & Ommni boxes aren't usable on-stage unless you drag them up to it
- Droid Effects are projected underneath the building
- Healing & Buffing cannot take place onstage (only in the room backstage)
I do like the look of the theaters, but they aren't very functional. So if you guys just need a cool place to hang out and watch good shows a theater is a great place to do it, and it adds prestige to any city. 
Good luck whichever way you decide!
- The only portion of it which you may assign a cover charge is the dressing room.

What those guys said. Between us, I'm not even sure I like the look of the theaters. They're probably my least-favorite player-city buildings. I wish they were much larger, and I wish they looked and worked more like the NPC theaters. I *love* those NPC theaters, with their huge stage and red chairs. I've long had a fantasy of cooking up an opera or musical or some such there. And they're great for dances like Formal and Lyrical. I wish player-city theaters looked like that.
Aye, but that would take more lots than a PA Hall 
The devs were trying to keep them small so they'd be manageable with lots, especially when the owner of a theater also has to own the cantina 90% of the time.
Frankly, an indoor theater would kind of suck at that size. Think of a really tiny movie theater. It just looks better as an outdoor theater. Best with what they had to work with was my guess.
It would be a lot better if they created a bubble around theaters so that the outside "dome" would function as if they were indoors. That way you could hang up lights, decorate the stage for plays/performances, and buff/heal.
