A deposit of 1/2 the total rental cost is required to hold the date. The deposit is non-refundable within 30 days of the event. The balance is due one week prior to the event.

All rental blocks include both set-up and tear-down time. Please keep this in mind when booking.

All events must complete an event memo.

Booking also requires a completed credit card authorization form in lieu of a damage deposit. The card will not be charged for any portion of the booked rental but may be charged for damages or overage time.

Payments may be made by check, ACH, cash, money order, cashier’s cheque, or card.

Clients are welcome to sell their own tickets.

The rental party is solely responsible for any and all promotion of the event.

Movie screening rentals are booked in blocks of two hours each.  Email us for more details and more detailed rate info for both the upstairs and downstairs auditorium, as well as longer time blocks.

These rates are for private use of the auditorium and include basic A/V support; rates for live events are available on request. For screening events, we will have our projectionist on hand. For all events, we have a manager on duty. If you would like to have the bar open during your event, there is an hourly fee. The fee can be reduced or waived at the theatre’s discretion.

Any caterer may provide food for an event; the Texas does not have an approved list. All beverages – hard and soft – must be purchased through the theatre.

Multiple types of bar set-up – open, cash, ticket, etc – are available. With any bar setup, the only alcohol for which you are charged is that served and any special orders (for example, a specific bubbly). In most cases we can accommodate requests for specific beverages (hard or soft) with two-to-three weeks’ notice.

Patrons may use any valet provider they choose.
