Theater

A theater was a performance space found aboard Federation starships and bases, with a stage and seating for a live audience. The theater could be used to show plays as well as musical performances. The USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) and the  USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) both had theaters. 

In 2266, Anton Karidian, along with his daughter Lenore and the Karidian Company of Players, performed Hamlet for the crew of the USS Enterprise. The Enterprise's theater later became the site of Anton Karidian's death after his daughter, driven mad, killed him with a hand phaser while trying to murder Captain James T. Kirk. 

In 2367 Doctor Beverly Crusher staged her version of the play Cyrano de Bergerac with Reginald Barclay in the leading role. 

On smaller starships, the mess hall could be converted into an impromptu movie theater, or a simulation of such a theater could be recreated on a holodeck.
