quick: No post on age requirements other then on there FAQs. HUGE let down for my daughter which was looking forward to it. After spending two hours in a lobby, two different nights not one person told me about the age limit until 5mins before we were being sat. ILL NEVER GO BACK AGAIN because of how they handled the situation and how rude that lady was. Please, check out the other childrens Theater in Bedford. Ps: Its a chidlrens show but they wont let a CHILD in it to see it. A 2 and half year old so excited to see a princess & not allowed! My husband works at a store near there location where they put up flyers. My DAUGHTER brought one of them to me. It was a flyer for the Disney Little Mermaid. (honestly never would have thought this type of place would sell out) I made the mistake of not ordering tickets prior to the show. We went on March 7th at the 7:30pm showing. They were sold out but had a waiting list for no shows ext. So we waited for over 30mins in a lobby with my daughter and my newborn infant. Everyone was nice especially the guy in charge of the wait list. Well as it turns out we did not make the show. My daughter was sad but I explained it was my fault and we will try again tomorrow. The guy in charge of the list told me to come back tomorrow at 1:00 and if my name was first i would be ableto get the "house" seats. So the next day, I packed up and got there at 12:45 to make sure I was first. I WAS! Again, We came in and stood in the lobby. My daughter and my infant. While we waited for more than hour the man reassured we would be getting seats he just couldnt guarntee four seats together. (me,my mom and my brother and my daughter) Through almost 2 hours of standing inside the lobby. I was never told about the age requirement. Nor,was it on a sign or posted on there website. A rude lady came up and told me the infant couldnt see the show. I was shocked that I wasnt informed by ANYONE in the amount of time I was standing there the night before and that morning with a baby in my arms. She then rudely asked the age of my daughter. The same daughter that found the flyer wanted to go and had been let down once. Also the same daughter I told we were going to get to see the show and we were so excited about. Before I could even answer she said, "She has to be 3 to see the show". My response was shes about to be three. She then said "well shes not three then, shes a toddler and not able to see the show!"I was in shock. I couldnt believe this people wasted our time this much and didnt even care! She was rude snarky and not someone that should be dealing with customers. biggest let down of all is having to pull my daughter out of the lobby to the car as shes crying because she wasnt allowed to see the show.

Just enjoyed "A closer Walk with Patsy Cline" staring Jenny Thurman at Theatre Arlington, which was a complete surprise! The theatre is Arlington Best kept secret; I been going to DFW Live Theaters since 1973 with season tickets for some. Theatre Arlington while small by DFW Standards but has an excellent sound system that is better then all! And with Jenny Thurman playing Patsy Cline it was one of my most enjoyable experience in over 40 years, only a Disney Production was any better.

I go to this theater all the time. Its a great theater run by great people and the shows are always well done. Its easy to get to in the center of Arlington,near several restaurants so you can get something to eat before or after a show and parking is free and easy. We love it! Like the previous reviewer said, they dont allow children under three (it is live theater).

Terrific and affordable theater in the heart of DFW. TA has consistently good shows, a high level of talent, excellent production values, and a commitment to involving the community and especially young people in theater. Check them out - you will be pleasantly surprised at just how good this theater is.

With some other friends, we saw "Scrooge and Marley" this month. The play was very entertaining, with some interesting staging and ingeniously constructed sets that worked very well with the story line. We liked it so much that weve got tickets for "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare" next month.

This place does not have any bad views to the stage the seats are old style and im a big guy but I still very much enjoy this theater. They have a great cast of performers. I saw to kill a mocking bird and a christmas Carol. They were great cant wait to go to another show

Wonderful play, great actors and the set was incredible. One complaint, is the seats are tiny. I know this is an old theater and I understand that but we were so uncomfortable I cant see going again. Best of luck though and keep up the wonderful work.

Totally enjoyed "Enchanted April" last evening. Hard to believe such a small theater could contain so much talent! Applause is awesome but a standing ovation is even a better compliment. Bravo!

My daughter has taken classes here for years and loves it. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Its a lot of fun to come see local actors in the plays, too. Great date night idea. :)
