We picked the perfect night, after the rain it was nice and cool. The mosquitoes were in force though.We saw Midsummer Night's Dream. It was a great time. Puck was amazing. So was the acting troup.

Cozy, comfortable, and romantic atmosphere, this is an amazing place to be. Live music, drinks, and the fully outdoor area was perfect on a beautiful night. Then we went to the show! It is a small outdoor theater, a wooden and sturdy construction with the show in mind! The actors come out from any direction, putting the audience smack dab in the performance. And the show was fantastic! I highly suggest this venue for a cute night out on a good night!

Hip Pocket is a really special place. From the moment you pull into the entrace, you can tell it was founded by hippies in the 70's, and that creativity, experimentaion, and community spirit has survived to today.It's one of the few theaters where I'm happy to arrive early and stay late, because their backyard always has music, a bar, and chill vibes. When the shows are good, they're great, and when they're not as good, they're still really fun. Can't beat the price or the atmosphere.P.S. If you're worried about seeing outdoor theater in the heat, the temperatures feel quite reasonable once the sun goes down.

Wow! What an absolutely great experience we had. How is it possible we’ve not heard of this venue before?? Definitely at the top of Fort Worth’s best kept secrets!The backyard prior to the show is literally just that. It felt like we were invited to a friend’s backyard to chill, have some cocktails and listen to some really good music. It was very full of people, but didn’t feel crowded at all. They had a nice selection of wine and beer at reasonable prices and of course non alcoholic beverages as well.The ringing of the bell tells us it’s Showtime! The small open air amphitheater was just the cutest venue ever. There are three tiered seating sections with wooden benches in a horseshoe shape. The stage is easily visible from any perspective. As our ticket person said “Not a bad seat in the house”….agreed.The show performance and musical arrangements were excellent! Bravo! Exceeded my expectations and then some!The 411Gravel roads and very dark driving inGravel walkways and uneven paths inside venueCredit cards are acceptedCash tips are encouraged for the entertainmentFood is by reservation onlyAlcohol is servedPlenty of seating no need to bring your ownBring a small cushion pad for the theater benchesNo late seatingNo reentry if you leave the theater

This theatre will forever be a place of magic.Nowhere else, in all my travels, have I found a place like it.The actors and owners (artists and writers) create so much beauty and peace. Sitting under the stars watching their joyful presentation and listening to the beautiful music is an UNMATCHED night out.
