    To think the oldest standing and still running movie theater in the USA was just a few blocks from my old High School the whole time I attended there over twenty years ago. I came to the Newtown Theater on Friday night for a comedian, Tom Green, and the show was magnificent including the opening acts. Price of the show came with a free drink coupon you can use on wine, beer, or a soft drink as a bonus. As far as food goes you can have freshly popped popcorn (extremely fresh and not salty at all), or candy for sale. The theater is very small and has mezzanine seating available. There is a decent amount of street parking so you do not have to pay for lot parking if you snag a spot near the theater. Newtown is a fairly rich and pleasant area to shop and dine. If you take notice of any acts or plays you want to see at the Newtown Theater I highly suggest you check it out. Some trivia : The Newtown theater is only seven years shy of being two hundred years old!! As always people SYOY!!!

    In the center of town! So many movies and concerts lined up! Cute nostalgic seating. Raising Arizona is a special one for me: what a gem !!

    Theater was redone a while back. Excited to be back!

There is a feeling of community amongst the parents, and everyone celebrates each others' successes. It's well worth our 35 minute drive three times a week for us, because we know our daughter is part of a studio that is interested in her dance education rather than just our wallet. Shows are Broadway quality, costumes are tasteful and appropriate, and the choreography is outstanding. The studio itself is homey and gorgeous. You seriously cannot find better in the Bucks County area!

The staff has also been a delight to interact with. Apparently, come spring, the ballet year culminates in a mega performance consisting of all of their classes. There's supposed to be ornate costumes, majestic sets, the whole 9 yards. We're truly looking forward to that!

Sheesh, what a phenomenal experience Improv 1 was…read more Jess and I decided for 2019 to challenge ourselves overall and this improv class found its way into our lives. Being introverts we were hesitant at first. Our first impression after we signed up was a phone call with the founder of Unscripted Productions, Will. He has great energy and just knew we made the right move after a five minute phone call. The class made us get out of our comfort zone, be silly, take on different personas, make lifelong friends and built trust all while being in a safe environment. We looked forward to our classes as play time and always left feeling energized. We loved it so much that we are looking forward to taking Improv 2.

Will Dennis and his three companions were a high energy team involving the audience in their skits and even calling them up to the stage to join in the spontaneous merriment. Give them three unusual objects, moments in history or dialogue from Neil Simon plays, and they return with an hilarious sketch called out if their interactive imagination. It was all great! Although the evening began as a fundraiser for local candidates a week before the election, it quickly became an exercise in team building and support for the final get out the vote push, while it also showed another side of all of us who were ready for some fun after so many month of all too serious campaigning. Didn't know how funny those guys were! So, we raised some money, ate some good food provided by local restaurants and delis, and enjoyed an unexpectedly wonderful evening. Thanks so much Unscripted Productions. Creative Improv = Creative Improve

    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.
