THE THEATRE...
We say that our place is “the most fun you can have in a Dallas theatre,” and we constantly strive to live up to that claim. Professional quality, locally produced theatrical shows are blended with good food, drink, and a friendly, casual atmosphere. A place where you can relax while enjoying food, fun, friends, and the thrill of a live theatrical performance in an intimate setting where there isn’t a bad seat in the house (okay, okay - maybe a few bad seats). We seat up to 140 at table, bar, and booth seating, which is assigned on an as-you-arrive basis. Special consideration is given to seat larger groups together, and for patrons with special physical needs.
Funkier than fancy, our storefront location is in the downstairs corner of the Mockingbird Central Plaza Shopping Center (right across the street from Dart-Mockingbird Station.) We have adequate free parking, wheelchair accessibility, vegetarian plates and a smoke-free environment. How’s that for political correctness?
THE SHOWS...
Comedies, Melodramas, Musicals, and an occasional Drama thrown in just to keep us legitimate.
We always try to select shows with a high audience entertainment factor so that you feel better when you leave than you did when you came in. Our madcap, popcorn-throwing melodramas are favorites for audiences with our unique style spoofing your favorite heroes, villains and monsters. Most of our shows are aimed at family audiences, but we’ll be the first to let you know when a show contains anything that might be objectionable for children. Our Late Night shows, on Friday and Saturday, are usually a little raunchier, but - hey - your kids shouldn’t be out that late anyhow.

GROUP RATES
House Buy-Outs
If you need the whole house (e.g., for a company party, wedding party, anniversary party, birthday party, or a just-for-the-heck-of-it party), we can probably make it fit your budget. We can plan your meal from our menu, or arrange for a caterer to fit your tastes (if you don’t care for the taste of our menu).
Hall Rental
Although we don’t have many of them, on an off-night, we can sometimes arrange for a business, club, or social meeting. Luncheon meetings are a little easier, as long as we can boot you out before we have to get ready for an evening show. These arrangements can include full or limited food and beverage service, use of our lighting and sound systems, etc. Mondays through Fridays are available for rentals from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m
