Recently, we moved to Bucks Couty, PA and decided to look for theatre and local arts scene close to…read moreour place. We read about the washington crossing open air theatre online and decided to watch the broadway show "Rent" in this theatre. We walked out of the show. It was enacted by 20+ college kids who had no clue about a play. We have watched many broadway shows and even free shows in NYC which were excellent. The show was supposed to be a musical. The language used for the musical was derogatory and the only people cheering in the crowd were the friends and family of the people who were enacting in the show. We will never go back to watch any play in this theatre after this experience.

I have to disagree with the earlier post. RENT is a broadway show about young 20-somethings -…read moretherefore college kids are appropriate actors. The show deals with such issues as love, drugs and AIDS among others. The show is what it is - derogatory language and all. If the previous reviewer was looking to see a fun, family-friendly musical, RENT was not the choice to make. I have had the pleasure of seeing many musicals at this theater over the past few years and have always found the productions to be enteraining and well performed. Also, for full length broadway versions of shows, the admission price is very reasonable. It is a fun, affordable day or night out in a wonderful outdoor setting. The shows are varied and there is something for every taste.

I can't believe I have lived in this area for so many years and never went to the Newtown Theater…read more It's a pretty cool space with some unique events tucked away on State Street. They do have a bar area and a popcorn stand. I went for their 90 minute cat video event. During the preshow I learned that this is the oldest theater is America! How crazy is that! They have some fantastic shows coming up including many tribute bands as well as movie showings. I'm really hoping to get tickets see Joan Osborne singing the songs of Bob Dylan. If you haven't been here I'd definitely check out their website or Facebook page to see what they have going on that might be of interest,

Not only did we get to enjoy a night out in this charming town, but we also had the chance to be part of a place filled with history and character. Walking into the theatre felt like stepping back in time in the best way--warm, classic, and full of heart. The ambience was absolutely perfect. The cozy, intimate setting made the entire experience feel personal and inviting. From the moment we walked in, the energy was welcoming. The fresh-popped popcorn added that nostalgic movie-night touch, and the bartenders and staff members were incredibly friendly, helpful, and genuinely happy to be there. Their hospitality made the night even better. We came to see The Ultimate Doors, and what a show! The sound, the vibe, and the atmosphere all came together to create a memorable night. It's rare to find a venue that feels both historic and alive, but Newtown Theatre gets it right. We would absolutely love to visit again. If you're thinking about catching a show here--do it. It's an experience you won't forget!

In the three years since living in Bucks County and first finding the ACME, they have fundraised to upgrade the chairs, the screen, and digital projection equipment. They have also like overnight somehow been able to acquire viewing of the most current indie and foreign films. Top films at that. We just saw Stan and Ollie, Shoplifters, Cold War, and many other excellent films. Just last night, 3/2/19, we saw a South Beach Miami documentary of two photographers that captured the life and evolution of South Beach. Well done and informative. Just in the past 4 months, we've seen more films at the ACME then at the Montgomery Theater in Skillman and we no longer drive out to the Ambler, Hiway or Colony theaters. I've also participated as a presenter at two 20x20 Pecha Kutcha events and recently volunteered to photograph presenters of the Feb 8th event. Feels good to be apart of the community.

I've been going to shows at ActorsNET for 12 years, and a season-ticket holder for five. They just…read morekeep getting better and better! This little theater packs a punch with every performance. Joe Doyle's curtain speech is a performance in itself. The physical aspects of the theater are completely unprepossessing, from the cramped lobby to the intimate house (which seats approximately 90), but what they do in that space is amazing. This season started by wowing us with an adaptation Oscar Wilde's "An Ideal Husband" by MaryAlice Rubens-Topeleski. Some favorites from past seasons include (in no particular order, "Equivocation" by Bill Caine, "The Last Days of Judas Iscariot" by Stephen Adly Guirgis, "Is He Dead Yet?" by Mark Twain, "It Can't Happen Here" (based on the novel by Sinclair Lewis) by Tony Taccone and Bennett Cohen, "Leading Ladies" by Ken Ludwig, "Underneath the Lintel" by Glen Berger, Shakespeare's "Merchant of Venice," and "A Man for All Seasons" by Robert Bolt.
