“Paper Planet” by Polyglot Theatre is interactive, immersive and geared for families and kids 1.5 yrs to 9 years old! Children and their grown-ups are invited into a large-scale forest of cardboard trees, and after exploring the space, they add to this strange and delicate planet using only paper, tape and their imaginations. The “Paper Planet” grows over the week as more families add to the structures. “Paper Planet” is child-led, deeply involving and highly sensory. Paper Planet will be held at the Tempe Center for the Arts (700 W Rio Salado Pkwy, Tempe, AZ 85281) March 21-24, 2024 , with three time slots to choose from. Tickets are $15/person (Free for children 0-2 yrs). [a.d] @tempearts More information can be found at https://www.tempecenterforthearts.com/events/paper-planet .

I am an actor, and I have worked in the theater there a couple of times, ( I was just there as an understudy last night) and I have been there as an audience member as well. It is beautiful! The scenic town lake is lovely, and the bar and gallery are a great way to pass time before your show begins. Backstage is wonderful. They are a pro establishment, it's pristine, there are several bathrooms, and the dressing rooms are spacious and include a bathroom with 2 stalls, 2 sinks, and a shower. There is a small lounge area, and the stage, lighting, and sound setups are fantastic. I feel very at ease there. There are 2 theatres within the center for live stage performances. One is large, and the other is about mid-size and provides a more intimate theatre experience. I love it there.

I would give them 5 stars if they could get their act together about FOOD! 3-6 years ago when they had the cafe/lounge open and serving salads and wraps, especially for happy hour events and concerts, they partnered with CATERING companies to provide the food and alcohol and service. The TCA manager is a city employee who gets paid no matter what. Now, there is NO FOOD available (except sun chips) and a small carbs laden $8 buffet during weekend HH events, and they won't allow you to bring...

TCA ROCKS. Everyone from the concierge dude (seriously, he has fascinating stories/info on every aspect of the place!) to the awesome guy ferrying you from the parking lot to the front (impressively considerate and perceptive) is a delight in every interaction! My parents go to their events (OMG, they're in love with the happy hour: live music and tasty tasties), but my favorite part is their gallery! I'm one of those dorks who would always rather have a museum membership than all the...

Went to an ASU Choral event. No mention of the lack of parking and the need to take a bus from the parking garage. Beautiful venue but I wasn't dressed to walk or ride a bus. Event was free for students, $16 for others at the door and open seating. At least three ushers told us there was no more seating yet none of the ushers were encouraging people to not save seats and to move to the center of the row so open seats were easily visible. One even told us the upper section was reserved for...
