Casa Mañana, Theatre in Cultural District, Fort Worth, United States.
Casa Mañana is a theatre in the Cultural District of Fort Worth, Texas, with two distinct performance spaces inside the same building. The main stage handles large productions, while the Reid Cabaret Theatre is a smaller room set up for dinner theatre with tables and a bar.
The theatre was founded in 1936 as an open-air venue for the Texas Centennial celebrations, originally built as a round tent-style structure. Over the following decades it was rebuilt and transformed into the permanent indoor building that stands in the Cultural District today.
The name Casa Mañana means "House of Tomorrow" in Spanish, a nod to the optimistic spirit of the 1930s when it was founded. Today, the theatre continues to serve Fort Worth as a place where Broadway shows, children's productions, and cabaret acts come together under one roof.
The building has on-site parking available on a first-come basis, so arriving a little early is a good idea. Hearing assistance devices are available for those who need them, and the staff can help you find the right section for your type of show.
When the venue opened in 1936, its open-air stage could seat around 4,000 people, making it one of the largest of its kind in the country at the time. The round shape of the original tent structure influenced the design of the permanent building, which still follows a circular layout today.
