User Rating: 5 out of 5 starsJazz attack: What an amazing night of jazz and entertainment. If you are a jazz lover or find it on your radio to relax this is a must see experience. I can't say enough about the artists!
User Rating: 5 out of 5 starsExceptional Accoustics!: The Aussie Pink Floyd concert was the best I've ever seen. The sound was like sitting in a speaker!
User Rating: 5 out of 5 starsWe can't wait to go back!: Ruth Eckerd Hall is a mostly private performing arts center in which everyone can take pride, as compared with the Tampa Bay Performing Arts Center in which everyone takes socialist shame. Our likes and dislikes about this establishment include the fact that we like its name. It is named after private individuals probably and that is more honorable than any establishment named after a governmental entity or politician. Although Ruth Eckerd Hall's start included government money, it was largely a private initiative. Ruth Eckerd Hall began in November 1977 when June Baumgardner Gelbart donated a 38-acre parcel of land. It is unfortunate that the land, which had been privately owned, was donated to the City of Clearwater. Gelbart and her former husband, Richard B. Baumgardner, were owners of the Kapok Tree restaurants, private restuarants which attracted throngs of diners with family-style meals and remarkable decor. Ruth Eckerd Hall, the first facility on the site, was named after the wife of Jack Eckerd (founder Eckerd Drug Stores, a private retail drug chain operating in 20 states) to honor the Eckerdâs for their donations. We are all thankful that the government was not invited to participate in the restaurants and drug stores or Eckerd College.
