A theater is a rabbit hole building found in The Sims 3 and The Sims 4: Growing Together. However, there is a set in The Sims 3 Store (Le Cinema Plumbob) that functions similarly to a theater.

Gameplay descriptions[]
The theater is the place where Sims can watch shows, get a job in the Music career, attend bass, drum, guitar, or piano classes, hold autograph sessions or simply tour the place for fun. Sims can spend leisure time attending a movie or concert here, which will ultimately boost Fun. Sims can also WooHoo in the rabbit hole, although they might get caught by the security and be asked to leave.
Journalist Sims are encouraged to visit such lot. Sims may also bring their toddler to the lot. This is one of the properties that a Sim can partner with and own.
Theater movie screenings can be visited on Monday-Friday 17:00 - 21:00, and Saturday-Sunday 12:00 - 16:00. On Fridays, a theater rabbithole has a 15% chance of replacing its movie selection with each of either a concert, a symphony, or a play. Whereas the options to attend movies and concerts are named "Attend Movie" and "Attend Concert", the options to attend symphonies and plays are referred to by their performances' titles. The HoloVenture Theater[TS3:ITF] has additional screenings that can be visited 24 hours a day.
Theaters can also host ballets and operas, but only as part of school field trips.[TS3:G] They can also host video game conventions.[TS3:UL]
