If you like plays, then this is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy one!

We took in Hairspray yesterday and were blown away by the quality of the production. From the actors to the lighting,live music accompanyment, to the comfortable chairs and acoustics- fantastic.

Amy is a great teacher who creates a friendly atmosphere. The classes break down ballet into simple steps, so I've been able to dive into dance without intimidation. The studio is welcoming of adult beginners, which is not something I've experienced at other studios. I'd highly recommend Ballet Center of Fort Worth to anyone looking to dip their toe into ballet classes for the first time!

Set design, costumes, choreography, singing, music, acting were all top notch. Some of the things you should know before you go. 1) Parking can be a challenge because they don't have their own garage. There are several garages nearby (about a block walking distance), but you will want to arrive really early to make sure you have time to find a space, make your way to the theater, and find your seat before the show starts. We were coming from Richardson, so we knew we would need over an hour to travel there, but because of the parking situation, we left even earlier at 11:30 am for a 1:30pm show time start. 2) The building is quite modern. They have several entrances, but you may be asked to wait on the street in the elements before they open the doors and start scanning tickets. Be prepared to stand in the elements. 3) The seats are quite narrow and the arm rest is shared with your seat mate. If you are an average sized American, you might find the average seats quite uncomfortable. The person next to me was blubbering through her seat into mine. She was also very enthusiastic tapping along with the beat. Both things were unpleasant for me. There are box seats that have independent chairs. If I return to this venue, I will pay for one of these to avoid feeling like a sardine. They have an amazing line up of shows. I wish they were closer because I would definitely be a season ticket holder so that I could enjoy every single one of their amazing shows.

This was an elite experience, especially for watching the first US World Cup game! The atmosphere…read morewas incredible. Large screen, comfy chairs, and the food/drink options were solid. I had a hotdog with some house made chips and it was definitely more than I expected! So good, especially for a movie theater grill! We were also able to get a deal where our ticket included a free popcorn, which was a really nice touch. Service was friendly and efficient. The energy was vibrant and we really enjoyed getting to watch the game here. The views from the roof were stellar and we could hear some of the cheering at the street level. I'd definitely come back for other showings.

They chips and queso I would not get again. The chicken quesadillas I would. You can order at your seat or at the window. Parking is $10 in the Worthington parking garage after validation from the box office or there is on the street parking. They had pellet heaters going which helps a little but be prepared and bring gloves, beanie, hoodie and blankets if you go on a cool/cold night. The experience was great the food was mediocre. Would I come back? Absolutely I would just eat somewhere beforehand.

The staff are really nice and the space is so cute. I didn't order one, but my friend ordered a very small $15 Old Fashioned with a peach nectar ice cube. She said it was delicious, but it was so small, that's a steep price for a drink that small. But I guess it's all in the name of helping out the non-profit. Other than that, it was a great time. Looking forward to Jagged Little Pill in a couple months, will be fun!

We got tickets for a production of "Our Town" by the Stolen Shakespeare Guild. What a wonderful,…read morethought provoking play! Well acted, you could clearly picture everything happening even with its minimal sets. A really lovely evening. This location was a little confusing to me at first, so let me make it easier for anyone else going. You are looking for the Fort Worth Community Arts Center building, inside is an art gallery (which you can peruse for free beforehand) and two theater spaces, the Sanders Theater and The Scott Theater. Parking was right across the street in the Will Rogers Coliseum parking lot. Hardly any walking required, it really is right across the street. It did say special event parking $10, but when we went the gates were up and it was free parking. The Sanders Theater is very small, about maybe 6 or seven rows of seats going up, so very close and personal performances here. There is just something wonderful about smaller live productions that people really put their time and heart into. No dress code here, come as you are and enjoy. Would be a wonderful night out with the girlfriends, drinks after to discuss. "Oh, earth, you're too wonderful for anybody to realize you." ― Thornton Wilder, Our Town

The "Our Town" production was very well done, and I love the minimal sets approach; it certainly lent credence to the production of Thornton Wilder's script. Much like Lars Von Trier's Dogville it was a story larger than life, one that eschewed sets and props because of the blatant humanity that was on stage. Indeed, the very superfluous world melted away as the characters spoke; to add sets would have been meaningless. The fact that we arrived just as it was storming was a bit of serendipity, yes one might say, because instead of feeling afraid at the tentativeness of a passing storm and tornado, I was instead feeling afraid at the frailty of Life itself, coming from the demoralizing but beautiful play. I heard absolutely nothing going on outside, which speaks well to the soundproof walls of the theater. The staff was splendid and provided a nice compliment to the performers, which were nothing less than masterful. You, yes you reading this, ought to go see more small productions as wonderful as this. It is so much more interesting and valuable than a night out at the movies. The Earth itself, in the words of Wilder, give this a hearty recommendation.

We decided to check out this comedy troupe while visiting Fort Worth in Texas. This improv comedy…read moretroupe is very well known for their funny and witty comedy. I recommend buying tickets in advance as their arena gets packed. Checkin starts an hour before the comedians take the stage. They have a bar with some beer, wine and cocktail options. Unfortunately no food here. I recommend having your dinner before coming here. Seats are nice and staff are very friendly. As we walked in we noticed others who checked in before us started writing things on a piece of paper so comedians have some improv ideas to perform. Comedians were very funny throughout the show. The show lasted for a couple of hours. They even brought in a couple of audience members and added them to their show. Overall, all of us had a great time. Absolutely worth it. Ambiance was great. Nice clean restrooms. Parking can be hard to find. There is a parking garage nearby. I think it's free for a couple of hours.
