Audiences for Symphony and Broadway shows tend to be more formal than rock, pop and country-western concertgoers, who are often seen in jeans and t-shirts. Tours of the Countrywide Performing Arts Center Tours of the Fred Kavli Theatre and the Scherr Forum Theatre are available by appointment; contact the Friends of the Civic Arts Plaza at (805) 449-2741 for further information.
