About Central Alabama Theater

Welcome to Central Alabama Theater (CAT), an intimate cabaret and listening-room venue located at Steeple Arts, 36 Church Street, Mountain Brook, AL 35213. CAT brings a curated mix of performances with formats like CAT Cabaret, Kelli Sings Dolly!, and The Ladies Who Lunch—CABARET-style evenings in a warm, close-up setting. Because seating is show-dependent—ranging from general admission to reserved seating—guests can expect a cozy, up-close experience with artists and a personal vibe.

While the seating arrangement isn’t published in a single dashboarded chart, the venue emphasizes flexibility per event to fit the performance and audience size. Plan ahead by checking the event details for seating type (GA or reserved) and get ready to secure your seats for an unforgettable night in Crestline Village.

Getting there is convenient from Crestline Village’s dining and shopping scene. Parking options include street parking and nearby public lots in Crestline Village. Transit access is available via BJCTA fixed-route 43 Zoo and the MAX-DIRECT microtransit service, though there isn’t a guaranteed stop directly at Steeple Arts. For a complete visit experience, we’ve highlighted nearby hotels like the Grand Bohemian Hotel Mountain Brook and Residence Inn Birmingham – Homewood/Mountain Brook, both within a comfortable drive. We’ve got you covered with trusted nearby eateries and venues so you can focus on the show. If you’re new to CAT, think of it as a friendly insider’s hub for intimate, high-quality performances in a welcoming setting.
