We attended sensory day and it was amazing. My kiddos really enjoyed themselves. The lighting and sound was perfect for my baby boy. My other son who has low vision was able to watch a show for the first time. He is still telling people about it.
Enjoyed James and the Giant Peach performance on Mother's Day today! Fabulous set and talented actors. No bad seats, easy check-in, can order swag and snacks ahead. A real gem for Dallas.
We’ve seen a few shows here with the kids (Piggy and Gerald/Charlie Brown Christmas). The length of the shows are great for kids. Production value / Acting is high. Theater is small enough that any seat is great. I’m sat in both sections and it really doesn’t make a difference. This is a great way to introduce your kids to a show. The only nit picky comment I can make is that they need more staff to direct crowds before and after shows because of all the activities they have outside the show. It’s not too bad, but could be better. Also… the location is also kinda weird as it is next to a Home Depot, but I don’t think there is anything they could have really done about that.
This was super cute and we enjoyed it very much. Huge peanuts fan! They skated through the audience between A and B sections which was fun! Lobby had Santa and was decorated with Peanuts decor. Actors were great, especially Snoopy and Lucy! Only thing I was not a fan of was the lack of an assigned seat. You only got an assigned section. I hate having to arrive super early and stand in line to get the optimal seating arrangement for my family. And THEN have the people in front of me in line save seats for 6-8 more people who are not even there yet. Not that they are enjoying the lobby with their kids, they are not even on-site. It was annoying.
Such a great experience! I cannot say enough great things. We went and saw A Charlie Brown Christmas and it was perfect ! The actors and actresses were spot on and it was so fun and interactive for the kids to enjoy. The staff that helped pass out flyers and scan tickets were all so friendly and overall it was a wonderful experience. It's a great way to support the Dallas community. Loved ! Note: it was really chilly- so please bring a jacket or blanket !
