Small theatre (80+ seating I guess) so you sit up close and personal to the actors. Minimum scenery and props so depend on acting and your imagination to enjoy the show. Plenty of parking to rear of theatre (west side). Check out the 2023 season as we are sure to go back for another helping.

I watched a play called Black Comedy tonight at Cox Playhouse in Plano presented by Rover…read moreDramawerks. It was pretty unique experience. I used to love checking out the plays back in college. Mainly because they were free with my student ID but also because it's live. No editing, no takes, no do-overs.. everything is live. This particular play took it one step further. The seating arrangement was basically within breathing room of the actors and actresses all around the "stage". It's really just one room and everyone's on stage. Hard to explain. Check out the play if you can. I think it's playing entire month. So what makes this venue or experience 4 stars for me is this. After the play, they served refreshments (including wine) and the cast comes out to mingle and chat with the patrons. I didn't stay too long afterwards but I got to talk to one of the actors and he's just a regular Joe working on this in his precious spare time. Of all the plays I've been to, I've never experienced this before. Good venue. I will gladly continue supporting this theater. Quick note about the play itself. Very interesting. I'm not going to give much away as you can probably read synopsis of the play online anyway. But it might not be for all ages. I would say don't bring your kids which I noticed some patrons brought children. The actresses are a bit scantily clad but it's entirely appropriate to the theme of the play though. Update: Originally I gave it 5 stars. Since the review is for the theater room itself and not the play, I felt that I couldn't do the review justice if I didn't mention this part as it pertains to the theater itself. So I have bumped it down to 4 stars but obviously I still had a good experience despite my seating location. The seating matters. It's true that the stage is pretty much the room but there is a raised area of the stage that the actors and actresses will also use during the performance. If you sit too close to this area, then your view is blocked and cannot see what's going on up there. It's general admission so good thing is you can go early and grab a good seat but just be aware of the limitation I mentioned.

I love this place! The entire staff are very friendly and inviting…read more I've seen 3 plays here now. All were very entertaining. There is an open concession that offers sodas, beer, wine, coffee, water, everything but Bundt cakes, cookies, popcorn, candies and more! All included with your admission! You're welcome to tip but I have not once seen anything to suggest you have too. I absolutely do of course but the staff is so nice - i would feel like tipping even if I was being charged I love the quaintness of the place too. Lots of seating, 3 large restrooms with furniture in them. Even though the place is relatively small. It's a must go!! I will be back

They are not only superb directors they handle all children with grace and respect.

They made outside of the box creative choices, allowing their students there to shine on and off the stage. Even now that he as aged out of children's theater he is helping with the music and staying involved in the community.

We are looking forward to purchasing season tickets for 2025 and we just purchased for "Noises Off"…read morein November. The actors were incredible as was the band. My husband was so impressed that he immediately asked about the season tickets. The seats are fantastic, and they give you so much aisle space so when someone is scooting out, no one has to stand and let them by. The chairs were very comfortable also and there was plenty of parking. The Black Box is located inside the Discovery Center so easy access off of The Dallas Tollway. We do wish there were single serving bags of pretzels, chips, cookies or something to purchase during intermission. They were kind enough to have small bottles of water For Free.

Again, I have personally performed at this venue several times, so I show some bias. However, for a theatre with limited means (poor city funding, low donations in a down market), the compensate with casting excellent talent (both on stage and off) and producing solid shows. There are only about 80 seats, so a subscriptions is a good idea, so you get reserved seating in the center section. Some favorites from recent years include Adventures in Love City of Angels Forever Plaid Art Brighton Beach Memoirs Little Shop of Horrors Honk If you love theatre, spend some time at FMPAT. If you have you young children, enrolling them in their children's school will make them happy (and talented).

I've always liked this theatre for its flexible architecture and modern feel. The theatre group…read morehas been good although it has changed over the decades. Its one of the few theaters that I will dress up for and has an open lobby area with a cash bar that is a fun and somewhat upscale space for conversation before the show which works nicely for your group to gather, converse, and socialize before the show. Addison restaurants are nearby but busy on weekends so do plan an early dinner between 5 and 6 as those restaurants are typically very busy on weekends. A plus is the "Stone Cottage" theatre in the rear which hosts a different theatre company and is which is rustic with often ribald works. There is also a large snd configurable separate meeting space which can be had for special functions or seminars. If you are into Architecture and you ever get the chance for a complete tour of the Water Tower theatre seize the opportunity because it is a very cool building with 2 levels below grade for costume and storage with three above that are absolutely amazing in how they are completely flexible for multi tier stage configurations and configurable seating tiers from several directions.
