SPECIAL PRIORITY OFFER for friends of Hyde Park Bar & Grill

	SPECIAL PRIORITY OFFER for friends of Hyde Park Bar & Grill January 25 – February 12, 2012 Bass Concert Hall HURRY! Get tickets now before they go on sale to the public Saturday, October 22.

We love our neighborhood performing arts theater! Every production is filled with unique talent and courageous effort. And this one is no different. We encourage you to check out “A Behanding in Spokane,” by Irish playwright Martin McDonagh, playing at the Hyde Park Theatre through May 28.

This is the director’s first play set in America and already his play has people talking. The New York Times calls it, “perfect, demented, ecstatic, and imaginative.” The Wall Street Journal said, “You’ll spend 90 minutes laughing nonstop.”

Check out the trailer here!

Hyde Park Theatre’s production of St. Nicholas is garnering glowing reviews from the likes of Spike Gillespie and Austin Theatre Examiner.

Hyde Park Theatre's hit play continues Thurs - Sun thru Mar 12

It runs Thurs thru Sundays, thru March 12.  NOTE:  Thursdays are Pay-What-You-Can nights.

A great night out.  Includes vampires.  (Go see it, and you’ll see why.)

Ever been to Hyde Park Theatre?

Hyde Park Theatre, actual size (almost)

It’s a little tiny place that packs a powerful punch.

We’re told the building was once a post office for the Hyde Park neighborhood.  It figures.

But it’s what’s inside that counts.  And what’s inside is Austin’s premier place for cutting edge, alternative theatre.  When you want big flashy shows and musicals where you know all the songs, head to Broadway Across America at Bass Concert Hall, or the Long Center, Zack Scott or even the State Theatre.

When you want in-your-face /you-can’t-believe-they-said-that / you’ll-never-guess-what’s-happening-next theatre, treat yourself to a performance at Hyde Park Theatre.

As a reviewer on CitySearch puts it:

Great Plays, Great price!!

Drove by the theater 3 times before I found it–It doesn’t look at all like a regular theater from the outside, and more like a run down gym. Inside though, it’s theater in the semi-round. GREAT plays!! And on thursday they have “pay what you want” night, which is quite possibly the coolest idea ever!!! You donate whatever you have in your pockets, and get to watch the show!! Just get there early, because obviously w/ optional pricing they fill up early. Honestly though, it’s such a fun Austin experience, I’d go even on a full price night!!

• Pros: Cool thing to do for not a lot of money.
• Cons: Hard to find the first time. Everything else is great!

We recommend them so highly, we post their schedule on our calendar.  And we’re prone to giving a ticket or two to each of their performances to folks on our email list.

Of course, we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention that our Central Austin locaton, at 4206 Duval in the heart of historic Hyde Park neighborhood, is the ideal spot for a pre-show meal or a post-show late night drink or snack.   It’s an easy 12 minute stroll from our doors to the theatre.
