“The Ochre House comedy team breaks loose, and we’re laughing and tapping our feet to “The Rabbit Rock Ballad” and “The Dance Party Mix.” It’s not hip-hop, but rabbits can rock and roll, too.”
“Be where the hare is—or be square!”

“It is definitely one to ponder. As the audience, you’ll decide if what you’re seeing is something in the multi-verse, a time warp or something else.”

Ochre House Theater named by D Magazine “Best Theater Company in Dallas for 2024.”
Thanks to all our artists for their dedication to the work and a special thanks to our patrons who have supported us in so many ways.
As conjectured, writer/director Carla Parker has a lifelong love of theater.
“The bunnies aren’t cuddly in Carla Parker’s latest Ochre House play, Daddy’s Rabbits.”
The Dallas Morning News‘ Manuel Mendoza got a behind-the-scenes peak at the new play, writer/director Carla Parker, and the Ochre House process. Find out what he learned.
“OCHRE HOUSE THEATER CONTINUES TO TAKE ITS SIGNATURE CREATIVITY TO THE STAGE IN “DADDY’S RABBITS: A COTTON TALE.”
Brett Grega of The Collin-Denton Spotlighter visited the Ochre House crew and got the lowdown from the rabbits’ mouths. What he heard them say.
Join Ochre House Theater as we close our 16th Season with the World Premier, DADDY’S RABBITS: A Cotton Tale, written and directed by Carla Parker. Mommy (Marti Etheridge) and Daddy (Omar Padillo) run a quaint little boarding house, where eccentric boarders reside together in perfect harmony with Daddy’s hutch of Jack Rabbits. Life is “status quo” until a stranger (Meagan Harris) arrives. DADDY’S RABBITS is an enchanting, immersive world of magic, music, spectacle, and long forgotten fables that promise to be another Ochre House Theater Production you won’t forget!

If we had a dollar for every time we asked you for a donation [501(c)(3) charity] to help our artists continue to create and entertain, we probably wouldn’t have to ask. But we totally value your support. Thanks for having our backs.
