Oak Cliff's 1931 movie palace turned repertory cinema and bar, screening films and hosting live music three blocks from Bishop Arts.

The Got Weekend take
Why go
The Texas Theatre is a historic Oak Cliff movie house on the Jefferson Boulevard shopping strip, three blocks from the Bishop Arts District. Its calendar mixes repertory and first-run films with concerts and special events — recent listings range from Godzilla screenings to a Rufus Wainwright show and a Nightmare Before Christmas screening with live ballet. The theater runs on showtime-driven hours: doors and the bar open 45 minutes before the first show of the day, and event promoters may shift door times for concerts. Free parking is available in the lot at Madison Avenue and Centre Street and at the 210 Sunset lot; metered street parking runs along Jefferson Boulevard.
