Quaint with up close and personal views of the play. Small theater and limited seats make it enjoyable. The actors are in the center of the room and utilize the small area to the max without feeling like it's cramped or awkward. Highly recommend coming to experience the amazing and talented actors.

We took our children to see the premiere of the Velveteen Rabbit. We were all amazed how well the creature/writer did keeping so close to the original story but also having wonderful original music and lyrics. Our children ages 1-7 really enjoyed the whole production and we will definitely be returning for the children plays. We'll done!

This is a cozy, family oriented, in the round style theatre. The Hales built this theatre some time ago in Orem and it has gained quite a lot of success.

Yes. There is a larger venue in Salt Lake City. However, if your not into BIG crowds, this is the place to go for original home grown theatre. The actors, the ambiance and the audience lend to a wonderful experience.

There is not a bad seat in the house. A perfect view from any angle. The floor is sectional, allowing for rotation, and rising elements from below the stage. It is wonderfully surprising what this theatre can provide.

You won't be disappointed!

I have enjoyed attending shows here for years! Small and cozy theatre in the round. Each show I've attended makes full use of the theatre, drawing audiences into the action. Always great performances. Most recently caught Newsies and loved the performances and the high energy choreography of dances. Everyone seems like they really enjoy what they're doing and that comes through fully.

I love the Hale! All of their shows are great quality, lots of fun, always always worth the time and cost. It's a small theater so you get a great view from anywhere you sit. The "theater in the round" setup makes it a really unique, engaging experience.

You're gonna have to post a sign or make an announcement after the performances or whatever you call them to remind people how to drive. At least once a week we drive past it on our way home and have to swerve into the turn lane or slam on our brakes because your patrons don't care that they don't have the right of way exiting that parking lot. Either they almost t-bone us or cut us off and go 15 miles an hour for the entirety of the rest of our drive. If it was once or twice I wouldn't even think twice but since it's almost every single time I'm saying something. I can't begin to express how much more dangerous that one corner of our commute is compared to the rest, and I have to drive to downtown slc for work everyday. I know this isn't the venues fault, but at this point I honestly don't care.

While an older smaller theater, it has a charm to it and the size does not distract from the quality plays you see here. In fact it can make it more personal. Something fun about seeing creativity in making you feel a part of the world on stage.

Just saw the little mermaid with our little girl. She made sure her Ariel shirt was clean before she went and was super excited to see Ariel in real life! Hale center theatre makes it easy for me to introduce the magic of theatre to my kids. Thank you!

This is such a small beautiful theater. It is very intimate. If you are in the front row you have to be carefully that the actors don't step on you. Vastly superior to the Salt Lake Valley Hale Theater in which I always feel far away even if I am toward the front.

I've been multiple times for different productions and they are always excellently performed. Having the stage be in the middle of the audience makes for a very intimate experience. Sometimes you can't get a great view of what's going on, but they make sure to rotate major scenes so everyone gets a chance to see the action up close like a front row seat.

I absolutely love their plays. Every single play is professional quality and family friendly. Love the intimate feeling of their small theater, makes you feel like part of the play. We get season tickets every year for past 12 years. Definitely a gem of Orem.

Hale Center Theater Orem is a small theater in the round. It's a very unique experience, but also very professional and high quality. Some of my favorite productions are of course A Christmas Carol each holiday season (sells out FAST), 110 in the Shade starring Broadway super star Audra MacDonald and Will Swenson and Les Miserables. They do have a standby line that starts when the doors open a half hour before the show starts and I've generally had good luck with that if I missed getting tickets in advance.

We've been going to plays here for years and have always loved it. Season tickets are well worth the money.

Incredible and engaging performances. The acting is good, the production quality is great, and the entertainment is fantastic.

I've always loved Hale Center Theater! The Globe Theater style seating brings a unique experience to each audience member and makes the play a little different for the actors too. The cast is always very entertaining and the props are very well done and creative! Overall, it's a great place for all age groups to enjoy a night in the arts!

Due to a mix up I had to reschedule my tickets. I was really worries because the show was in 2 days and it was a sold out production. The man who helped me was able to help me find tickets to a later show as they had opened more show dates. My kids and I are so excited to see The Little Mermaid!

We had so much fun! Newsies was so great! It was so interactive! The actors were so good. The stages were fun. The staff was easy to work with and so friendly! We had a friend who wanted to join us after we had already bought our tickets and the box office went out of their way to get the third ticket as close to our other two as possible.

I have been patronizing this lovely lil theater since I was a young girl. Hale Center Theater was the dreamiest place asa child and continues to bring class and charm into my life. I love theater in the round and they always do such an amazing job. The caliber of the actors and staff is absolutely top shelf. I have seen so many plays here and always love to go back. Their recent play, Sense and Sensibility, was UNBELIEVABLE. Y'all, I ain't playing. If you enjoy the theater, Hale Center is the place for you. #blessed

Love coming here. So much talent no matter what show we come to see. The price is excellent given the quality performances. The ambiance is cozy and delightful. All our family love the chance to come here. Its a favorite gift idea to buy tickets to an upcoming show.

Fantastic experience for live theater. It's a theater in the middle which allows for a creative experience than a traditional stage up front. The cast in the plays are always top notch and I have had a great experience Everytime I've gone

For a unique theater experience the Hale is a fun place to visit. The venue is much more intimate and you are front and center for the whole performance. I've seen a number of performances here and have never been disappointed.

We have been season ticket holders for several year. We enjoy the plays. I am constantly surprised by the quality of the performances. But the best part is seeing how they stage things in this very small space.

The Hale Center's facility is smaller than the Scera or the Covey Center for the Arts. However, because you are much closer to the cast, you become more connected to the characters. I highly suggest visiting here at least once.
