About Accolade
Accolade was launched in 2021 out of a desire to bring excellent and affordable theatre experiences to families in Richardson, TX and beyond. Since then we've served over 100 families and found a community that we are happy to be part of.
Get involved
At Accolade we have a number of ways for kids and entire families to get involved.
Volunteer
Volunteers are the heartbeat of our theatre. There's no way we could do it without them. Whether you want to be out front or more behind the scenes, we have a place for you!
Audition
Many of our top performers had never auditioned anywhere before coming to Accolade. We know it takes courage, but the experience is absolutely worth it. Check out the audition page for upcoming opportunities.
Partner
Producing plays is a costly endeavor, but we are determined to keep Accolade affordable for families. That's why our partners are so important. Find out more on our partnership page.

"Oklahoma"
The first collaboration of famed partners Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II, Oklahoma! set the American musical theatre standard. Set in Western Indian Territory just after the turn of the 20th Century, the spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the backdrop for the love story between Curly, a handsome cowboy, and Laurey, a beautiful farm girl. The road to true love is anything but smooth, but there is no doubt that these two romantics will succeed in making a life together. As the road to romance and the road to statehood converge, Curly and Laurey are poised to spend their new life together in a brand new state: O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A - OKLAHOMA!All performances are at:Granville Arts Center
