The schedule contains 10 listings, although not all are performances at the downtown Florida Theatre building. The theater's calendar identifies Paula Poundstone with WJCT Soundstage and Here Come the Mummies with Ponte Vedra Concert Hall. The remaining eight entries in the table are listed for the downtown theater.
The official calendar provides starting times but does not establish how long each performance will run. It also does not provide verified ticket prices for the events listed here. Those details are not included in this guide.
Two anniversary events: 'Little Shop of Horrors' and 'Labyrinth'
The Florida Theatre will present the "Little Shop of Horrors 40th Anniversary Screening" on Tuesday, Nov. 10, at 7:30 p.m., according to the venue's official calendar. The screening is scheduled at the downtown Florida Theatre, 128 East Forsyth St. The listing identifies the presentation as a 40th anniversary event.
The following evening, Wednesday, Nov. 11, the theater will host "Jim Henson's Labyrinth: In Concert 40th Anniversary." The performance is scheduled to begin at 8 p.m., according to the venue's calendar. The event is listed at the Florida Theatre's downtown location.
Both events use their respective film titles and 40th anniversary descriptions in the theater's published listings. The Nov. 10 presentation is identified as a screening, while the Nov. 11 event is billed as an in-concert presentation. The official calendar establishes those descriptions without providing additional details about the productions.
The two events are scheduled on consecutive evenings. "Little Shop of Horrors" begins at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, and "Labyrinth" begins at 8 p.m. Wednesday. The Florida Theatre lists both among its November events.
Music performances include Marcus Miller and Floyd Nation
Marcus Miller is scheduled to perform at the Florida Theatre on Friday, Nov. 6, at 8 p.m., according to the venue's official calendar. The performance takes place at the downtown theater on East Forsyth Street. It follows the Nov. 5 listing for "Doktor Kaboom! Look Out! Science is Coming!," which begins at 10:30 a.m.
Another music event is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 12. Hotel California, billed as "A Salute to the Eagles," will perform at 8 p.m. at the Florida Theatre. The venue includes the tribute description in its official event listing.
Floyd Nation is scheduled for Friday, Nov. 13, at 8 p.m. The Florida Theatre identifies the performance as part of "The Inner Light Tour." The event is listed at the downtown theater.
The theater's calendar also includes Blank Space on Sunday, Nov. 15, at 6 p.m. The act is billed as "The Unofficial Taylor Swift Tribute." The performance is scheduled at the Florida Theatre.
Here Come the Mummies is separately listed for Sunday, Nov. 15, at 7 p.m. The Florida Theatre calendar identifies Ponte Vedra Concert Hall as the performance location rather than the downtown theater. The listing is therefore part of the theater's published event calendar but not a downtown Florida Theatre performance.
The official calendar supplies the names, dates, times and billing descriptions for these music events. It does not provide verified ticket prices in the source information used for this guide. The theater's box office and event listings provide the published ticketing contacts.
Science programming, Paula Poundstone and Eddie B
The Florida Theatre's Nov. 5 listing features "Doktor Kaboom! Look Out! Science is Coming!" at 10:30 a.m. The program is scheduled at the downtown theater, according to the venue's official events calendar. It is the earliest performance listed in this guide.
Paula Poundstone appears on the Friday, Nov. 13, calendar at 7:30 p.m. The Florida Theatre identifies the event with the location "At WJCT Soundstage." That venue designation is reproduced from the theater's calendar rather than assigned to the downtown Florida Theatre building.
Eddie B is scheduled to perform Saturday, Nov. 14, at 8 p.m. The event is listed for the downtown Florida Theatre. It follows the Friday listings for Paula Poundstone and Floyd Nation.
The three events appear in the same official calendar but have different starting times and listed locations. Doktor Kaboom! and Eddie B are scheduled at the Florida Theatre on East Forsyth Street. Paula Poundstone's listing identifies WJCT Soundstage as the venue.
Sporting JAX hosts two November soccer matches
