Uber for Tickets

New-to-Dallas app unlocks on-demand theater tickets at a discount

There's so much culture happening in Dallas-Fort Worth that choosing what you want to see might sometimes feel a little overwhelming — especially if you have to plan weeks in advance. And if you're on a budget, it can be hard to keep track of who's offering what ticket discounts, and when.

Enter TodayTix, the app and website that puts discounted and full-price tickets at your fingertips. Arts aficionados in New York, London, Chicago, and beyond have been using TodayTix to discover the best their city has to offer, and now Dallasites and Houstonians can too.

Just check the app to see what's playing that day, or up to 30 days in advance, and score tickets at the best prices to the city's most sought-after performances.

The biggest arts institutions in Dallas have all signed on, so you can expect to snag deals for shows at AT&T Performing Arts Center, Dallas Theater Center, ​Casa Mañana, WaterTower Theatre, The Dinner Detective, Circle Theatre, Stage West, Theatre Three, Uptown Players, Turtle Creek Chorale, Kitchen Dog Theater, and Bishop Arts Theatre Center.

More into classical? Get your fix with Dallas Opera, The Cliburn, Dallas Symphony Orchestra, Dallas Chamber Symphony, and New Texas Symphony Orchestra. Dance-lovers can catch the latest from Texas Ballet Theater, Avant Chamber Ballet, Dark Circles Contemporary Dance, and TITAS Presents.

TodayTix is also revolutionizing the process of day-of rush tickets, and you can see how simple the process is here with Dallas Theater Center's The Trials of Sam Houston.

Here's how it works: Rather than having to go to the Kalita Humphreys Theater lobby and wait in a rush line before the show, you can access exclusive $20 rush tickets from anywhere, right on the TodayTix app. To get the best price, just "unlock" the rush access by sharing a post about the show on social media. From there, you can get first-come, first-served rush tickets each day there is a performance, beginning April 20 at 9 am.

The masterminds behind TodayTix are two life-long friends and Broadway producers, who launched the app in New York City in 2013. Since then, the service has amassed partnerships with more than 800 theater institutions globally. It operates in the world's most iconic theater markets, and that now includes Dallas-Fort Worth and Houston.

Dallas' Kitchen Dog Theater unveils powerful 2026-2027 season lineup

Kitchen Dog Theater in Dallas will put on three mainstage productions for their 2026-2027 season.

Kitchen Dog Theater in Dallas has revealed the lineup for the 2026-2027 season, featuring a slate of plays that boasts power players like kings, prime ministers, space force commanders, and would-be presidents.

According to a release, the theater company's 36th season — their "most powerful yet" — will consist of three mainstage productions at its new permanent home in the Design District, as well as the annual New Works Festival, featuring a readings series and the 26th annual D-PAC PUP (Playwrights Under Progress) Fest.

The season will start with The Absentee by Julia Doolittle, running September 10-October 4, 2026. The play was the winner of the 2019-2020 Woodward/Newman Drama Award.

Far out in the Milky Way, “Beacons” serve as lighthouses for warping spaceships around the galaxy. When a U.S. Space Force ship explodes in the galaxy, the Operator finds herself alone in deep space, with only her ship’s AI for companionship. That is, until a persistent canvasser calls, desperate to convince her to vote absentee in the 2088 election.

As the Operator waits for the clean up to be over, she finds she has to come to terms with her isolation, grief, and her political voice.

The season's second production comes four months later, with Equivocation by Bill Cain, running February 4-28, 2027. In 1605 England, a terrorist plots to assassinate King James I and blow Parliament to kingdom come. Shagspeare (after a contemporary spelling of the Bard's name) is commissioned by the prime minister, to write the “true historie” of the plot. And it must have witches — the king wants witches.

But as Shag and the acting company of the Globe investigate the plot, they discover that the king's version of the story might, in fact, be a coverup. Shag and his actors are confronted with the ultimate moral and artistic dilemma. Speak truth to power and perhaps lose their heads? Or take the money and lie? Is there a third option? Equivocation?

A high-stakes political thriller with contemporary resonances, Equivocation gallops from the great Globe to the Tower of London to the halls of Parliament to the heart of Judith, Shag's younger daughter, who finds herself unexpectedly at the very heart of the political, dramatic and — ultimately — human mystery.

The final mainstage production of the season comes at the 2027 New Works Festival with Black Republican by KDT Artistic Company Member Jamal Gibran Sterling, running June 3-27, 2027.

Originally featured as a Staged Reading in the 2026 New Works Festival, the ambitious first play by Sterling centers on a Black Republican candidate on the national stage who finds his campaign threatened by an activist who challenges everything he claims to stand for. Their battle exposes uncomfortable truths about race, politics, and the stories we tell ourselves.

In addition to Black Republican, the 2027 New Works Festival will showcase four staged readings of some of the newest and most exciting Texas-based playwrights. Each reading will feature accomplished Dallas-Fort Worth actors and directors to highlight the breadth of talent in the area.

The final part of the festival is D-PAC PUP (Playwrights Under Progress) Fest, featuring six staged readings of jury-selected plays written by Dallas-Fort Worth high school students and featuring student actors directed by area professionals. PUP Fest is the culmination of Dallas Playwriting Arts Collective (D-PAC), a partnership with Dallas ISD and Junior Players.

Kitchen Dog Theater offers two season subscription packages for their inaugural season in their new facility. The Kitchen Dog package includes a ticket to all three mainstage productions for any performance date for $90+ $8 fees for adults and $75 +$8 fees for students and seniors (ages 65+). The Saver Dog package includes a ticket to all three mainstage productions for Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays only. It is $60 + $8 fees for adults and $45 + $8 fees for students and seniors.

Both packages grant full access to the Staged Reading Series and PUP Fest. Subscribers also receive premium reserved seating for in-person performances, as well as subscriber-only discounts on additional single tickets, 2026 special events, and KDT merchandise.

Subscription packages are on sale now, and single tickets for each show will go on sale on Monday, August 24, at kitchendogtheater.org.
