About Theatre on the Square

Theatre on the Square opened in 1993 as an intimate performance venue in downtown Tacoma, Washington. Located at 901 Broadway, Tacoma, WA 98402, it operates as part of the Broadway Center for the Performing Arts, now Tacoma Arts Live, and holds approximately 302 seats. Its scale and flexible configuration make it a different experience from Tacoma’s larger historic theaters while keeping it firmly within the city’s Theater District.

The venue, also known as TOTS, is regarded as a contemporary performance space suited to close-up theatrical productions, intimate concerts, community arts programs, and smaller staged performances. It has long been associated with the Tacoma Actors Guild, which called the venue home, and it complements nearby Tacoma venues such as the Pantages Theater and Rialto Theater.

With rehearsal and studio facilities supporting the space, Theatre on the Square is known for presenting smaller-scale live performances where audiences remain close to the stage.

How Much Do Tickets to Theatre on the Square Cost?

Theatre on the Square ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the production or performer, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from theatrical productions to intimate concerts and special performances.

For theatrical and stage productions, tickets are typically modest, often ranging roughly from $20 to $60 depending on the production, performance date, and demand.

For intimate concerts and special performances, prices can vary from low to mid range depending on the act, the event format, and how quickly seats are claimed in the small room.

Because Theatre on the Square holds approximately 302 seats, popular performances can sell out. Buying earlier generally gives you better seating options before inventory tightens closer to the event date.

Theatre on the Square Seating Guide

Theatre on the Square offers an intimate seating experience built around proximity to the stage. With roughly 302 seats and a flexible contemporary configuration, the room is designed for close-up theater, music, and staged performances.

Best Seats at Theatre on the Square

• Best value: Seats throughout the single intimate seating area can offer strong value because the venue’s small scale keeps audiences close to the performance.
• Closest to the action: Front rows nearest the stage provide the most direct proximity for theatrical productions, concerts, and staged events.
• Best overall experience: Many seats in the room offer close proximity and strong sightlines, making the overall experience depend more on preferred distance from the stage than on navigating a large seating bowl.

Getting Ready for Your Theatre on the Square Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical steps make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a downtown theater where parking, dining, and arrival timing all matter before showtime.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. Give yourself extra time for downtown parking and seating, particularly for sold-out performances.
• Wear the right footwear. Theatre on the Square is a downtown indoor venue with standard theater access and minimal terrain concerns, but comfortable shoes are still useful if you plan to walk from parking, transit, dinner, or nearby hotels.
• Dress in layers. The performance space is indoors, but standard Pacific Northwest weather can affect your arrival and departure in downtown Tacoma.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
