Great piece of history of Grand Prairie beautifully brought back to life keeping the art deco atmosphere of its golden age era, its facade is even spotted in a rare picture of President John F. Kennedy while he was in campaign running for president, so now that Grand Prairie is turning into the newest vibrant city in the DFW metroplex is a great place to spend time and enjoy a play or concert mostly performed local artists, the kind that are run by passion and not for the money.

Fabulous vintage theatre space. Wonderful community theatre productions, children s summer camp, touring shows, etc. Rentable for events & fundraisers. Recently hosted a magic show for kiddos to raise $ for Lions Club. Cute and simple concession area with adequate seating. Small break out room with space for a little poetry reading perhaps(?)... Will definitely be back!

Had our wedding there on 10/17/20! It was beautiful and amazing!!! I gave 4 stars because the media system in the lobby area was not that great, couldnt hear music or when DJ made announcements. Need to be careful on the small stage because some boards are loose. One BIG thing that upset me was they cut and served the top tier of my wedding cake... they literally had to tell me several times before I actually believed them because I thought they were kidding. But other than that everything else was amazing!
