The Count Basie Theater, a 1926 historic theatre, is located in the heart of downtown Red Bank, New Jersey. Just minutes from the ocean, Red Bank is a beautiful and charming town built on the banks of the Navesink River. Red Bank is a walking town, with restaurants and hotels right in the vicinity of the Count Basie on Monmouth Street.
Vocal and musical artists from Atlantic City and Las Vegas venues make a yearly performance stop at the Count Basie. During the next two months, performances and ballet for the Christmas season explode on the Count Basie stage.
