Evening performances typically run Thursday through Sunday, with matinee shows often scheduled on Sundays. Check their seasonal production schedule and book tickets early for popular family shows, which tend to sell out quickly in this cozy venue.

Ticket prices are typically very affordable compared to larger theaters, making this a budget-friendly family outing. Contact them during weekday office hours (9 AM-3 PM) for ticket information and program registration.

Productions run seasonally throughout the year with typically 4-6 shows per season. Summer often features youth productions showcasing young local talent. Holiday productions in November-December are especially popular with families and book up quickly.

Downtown Davidson is just steps away with family-friendly options like Kindred Restaurant (upscale but welcoming to families) and Main Street Books & Café for casual sandwiches and treats. Summit Coffee on Main Street is perfect for a pre-show snack.
