The Tweedlie Center for the Arts

I attended one of their performances this past weekend at the Riverside Center and I thought it was a wonderful time. I went in support of my little cousin who was in the show. The most important part is that the kids seem to have a great time and a good experience, so for me thats all that matters. :-)

About a year ago I found this organization through a neighbor whose child was involved in one of their musicals. My daughter has been involved in a handful of different productions in the last year. The performances have always been fun and the kids always seem to have a great time and I’m impressed with what they’re learning. More importantly then the practical application of theater arts, I feel, is learning how to socialize and work as an organized group is an important skill to have and to grow up with. I’ve always been happy with the interactions I’ve had with the staff and I would absolutely recommend this program for anyone interested in starting their child out in the theater arts. A+ work

My nieces wanted to try some type of acting class. They seemed to enjoy the classes but when it came time for the show, I guess you had to buy pre-​sale tickets. We came to watch my nieces with my 85 year old grandma. We arrive at Bobby Bonds to an empty auditorium to be told they were sold out. We asked to buy tickets and they acted as if we were trying to sneak into to watch for free. It was ridiculous. Every person «running» the show was rude and extremely unprofessional! I was blown away! It made my grandma uncomfortable and ruined the whole experience for us. Hopefully they did not treat my nieces the same way they treated us!
In regards to the response, it was never stated by anyone I was there with that we «didn’t want to pay for VIP» seats. It was not an issue of money, it was all about the rude and unprofessional staff.

Tweedlie Center for the Arts is absolutely wonderful! I saw their Christmas show this past Saturday because my sister’s daughter was in the show and it was absolutely fantastic! The sets, lights and sound were great. And every staff member working the event was friendly and personable. The kids had a blast and they sounded great too. I would absolutely recommend TCA to anyone who is looking to get their child involved in theatre. They will have a great time and will learn invaluable skills they can use for a lifetime. Great job to the entire cast and crew! Can’t wait for the next show!!!

Very disappointed in how rude the people who run this place are. My daughter and niece were performing and as we went to buy tickets they tried to tell is that they were sold out of seats. After arguing with the lady she finally sold us seats for 5 $. As she turned away and gossiped about me to other women I had coincidentally turned around and watched her talk crap… which was really unprofessional on her part… And just to find out as the show started she introduced herself as the owner !!! WOW! I was shocked… For the price that we paid for them to do this and seeing how cheesy the costumes were made and how rude the staff was we unfortunately will not be coming back here.
Seeing how your response is condescending is very unfortunate. Paying for the tickets was not an issue at all. Your attitude was the issue and seeing you talk about me to your friend was the issue. Sadly you didnt know I was standing right there. Never once were we told that tickets were presold… nor was it on the paper with the ticket prices or times and dates they were to perform. Also where they were performing at was never verbally told or written anywhere. This wasn’t the first time you were rude and apparently I wasn’t the only parent that felt that way, with two other parents telling me it was disorganized and was not communicated with them as well. Also seeing how I wrote my review on Facebook and your mother n law attacked it was even more of a joke. This was my experience not hers! This is what reviews are for. Oh and one more thing to keep your stars high on Unilocal I like how you told your family/​friends to all go write a good review for you. Should of told them to space out the days so it looked more believable. Good luck with your business.

My daughter loves being a part of this group. Stacee is great with the kids and can do a lot in a short period of time. Every kid had a part and is included in the show. We really liked being a part of the little mermaid
