Great direction by Ken Webster and great acting in the play Death Tax which I just witnessed tonight. All the performances that Ive seen there I would have highly recommended! Intimate stage and small audiences really bring live action to the fore!

This is a small intimate theater. The performance we saw was first rate show by Will Eno. This was my first visit but I plan to return.

Local live theatre. They pretty consistently pick good material, and are an Austin mainstay. Designers regularly think of new ways to make this very intimate space over into different locations. The true heart of Austin live theatre is in the smaller, insistent, determined companies that do theatre their own way. Any tour of Austin theatre that left this company and venue out would be incomplete.

A small, unpretentious theatre located in a suburban neighbourhood, with surprisingly good quality productions: Short Fringe Festival plays (the annual Frontera )Fest, Tony Award-winning productions among others, and very good value for money.

So we went to see the song about himself. The space is super trendy--the focus is on the art itself. The acting was superb and the directing phenomenal. There was some technical parts that were done exquisitely. We will definitely be there for another performance

I love going to this place. Nearly all plays are thoughtful, dark, and often disturbing. I appreciate the pay-what-you-can Thursday shows and the personal reservation service. Great vibe at this unique theater, and all seats are good seats.

Very small (80 seats?) Good acoustics but minimal ammenities. Nice format (half round/square), which makes for better audience interaction.

My husband and I saw Port Authority last night and were thrilled with the experience. The play was wonderful and the acting by the three actors superb. My one and only negative comment is that the theatre was absolutely FREEZING. It was so cold that when we departed, everyone who left with us commented about how wonderful the Austin night felt. And it was still a very hot July evening, but after sitting for 90 minutes in such a cold place, it felt so good to experience the heat and humidity of Austin in July. Please warm up the theatre so that the experience will be even more outstanding than it was.

Small theater, no bad seats. Free parking at back of the lot across the street. The shows are always a gamble - sometimes very good, sometimes. . .

Home to Hyde Park Theatre and resident companies Street Corner Arts and Caputal T Theatre, this intimate, unassuming building houses some of the consistently best theatre in Austin.

I can not recommend the Hyde Park Theatre enough! All of the productions that I have enjoyed here have been excellent and surprising in their own ways due to great theatrical selection and over all a superb knot of talented actors. Thursday shows are pay-what-you-can - do it.

Very tiny theater, so be prepared to get close with your neighbors. The festival was interesting, and they did well with the lighting and sound.Chairs were a bit uncomfortable for such a long sit.
