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.

"Aladdin, JR"
Disney’s Aladdin JR. is based on the 1992 Academy Award®-winning film and the 2014 hit Broadway show about the “diamond in the rough” street rat who learns that his true worth lies deep within.
The story you know and love has been given the royal treatment! Aladdin and his three friends, Babkak, Omar, and Kassim, are down on their luck until Aladdin discovers a magic lamp and the Genie who has the power to grant three wishes. Wanting to earn the respect of the princess, Jasmine, Aladdin embarks on an adventure that will test his will and his moral character. With expanded characters, new songs, and more thrills, this new adaptation of the beloved story will open up “a whole new world” for your young performers!All performances are at:Granville Arts Center
