If you’re looking for a nice night out, but don’t want to drive all the way to Phoenix or Scottsdale, downtown Gilbert’s Hale Centre Theatre is just the ticket.
Located in Gilbert for the past 5 years, the Hale Centre Theatre has over 100 seats, shows that run Mon-Sat. and reasonable ticket prices. Depending on the age of your little ones, the Hale has regular shows as well as a children’s theatre that showcases Disney favorites. Sleeping Beauty will run March-May and best of all, tickets are only $10 for children and $12 for adults!
Currently, Lend Me a Tenor is showing until Feb. 14 and The King & I begins Feb. 19. Tickets are available online and range in price from $17-$24. Group rates and season tickets are also available.
Best of all, parking at the theatre is free and a few great restaurants are within walking distance. Joe’s Real BBQ, Romeo’s Euro Cafe and Flancer’s Cafe are all close and offer great food as well as an entertaining atmosphere.
The shows feature live actors and if your children love to sing and dance, the Hale also offers auditions; be sure to check the site for audition times and dates. Who knows, you might even see your child on the stage one day! 🙂
So if you are looking for dinner and a little entertainment, head to downtown Gilbert; you can grab a quick bite to eat and then sit back and enjoy a wonderful show at the Hale Centre Theatre!
(& to get the little ones in the mood for a play, try putting on your own show with handmade puppets a day or two before!)
