Great for beginners and very versatile later on. It has useful extensions and fast support. My favorite event plugin.

This is a good plugin !
Good :
You can define a Production and Event dates of a production – That’s exactly what I want .. So for a piece of work – a play, a concert – which you put on stage on one or more occasions, then if you call this a Production, then with the plugin you can define a Production – title, description , etc, all the stuff independent of time – and then to this production you add one or more Event dates – actual date, duration, venue ticket info. – So for multiple dates you only enter the overall production info once. Also theres loads of shortcode possibilities and parameters which is great. Also for more fields the plugin supports the plugin Advanced Custom Fields out of the box
Would be good to improve labelling, documentation :
The docs talk about a production and events, and also the shortcodes use the terms [wpt_productions … ] and [wpt_events … ] all exactly as defined above in my Good point – that’s good … BUT in the WP Admin menu > Theater – there is no “Production” sub menu, eg to create /edit a production .. Instead there is an Events sub-menu .. It turns out this actually means Productions … very confusing at first until I got going ..

Also check out the extensions, works with a lot of ticketing systems

This plugin has been running for three years without any significant problems. The lists, which can be varied in many ways by shortcode, fascinate! Also the unexpected but helpful support from Jeroen, during a failed installation of an extension, pleased me very much.

I have been searching for something like this for so long! Events Manager wasn’t cutting it, Events Calendar by Modern Tribe is glitchy, Theater for WP does it just right! My only complaint would be the documentation, my developer had to figure out a lot on his own. But the support was great when we needed it.

Great plugin for a theatre client of mine.
I added a free extension (duplicator) and premium one (grid).
The author was extremely responsive to support requests for the premium extension and I cannot fault him or the product. Superb.

We have been using this plugin for two years. Our amateur theatre website is built using this plugin and has been widely praised. This plugin is free, has good support, is both reliable and easy to use… what more could you want?

I’m using this plugin for the website of a professional orchestra that I’m developing. It does the job brilliantly and support from Jeroen is amazing. Thank you!

I am currently building a homepage for a small german theatre and this plugin is without doubt the best for it. It’s really easy to set up and the functionality of maintaining multiple dates for one production is the best around all plugins i’ve tested.
The code is nicely documented and helps a lot to understand what is going on.
A few more functionalities would be great. But considering the age of this plugin, that will most likely change ??
Thank you!

Its difficult to find an events plugin which can handle multiple dates which might not be sequential, i.e. Thursday to Saturday and Monday.
This plugin does it really well.
Its easy to use, great functionality and can be set up to work well with your theme.
The support for is great too. I recommend some of the add-ons.

I am building a website for an independent cinema and have found this plug-in to be invaluable – I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. Jeroen was very quick to respond when I suggested a new extension to enable British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) icons to be displayed – it was up and running in no time. The site is almost done now and I’m really happy with the way the plug-in is working, and I’m confident that when I hand it over to the client they will find it easy to use.

We run a touring theatre company out of the UK, and as such often have productions that run concurrently over several years. This plugin is an absolute must for theatre companies on a similar model. Everything else we found was either for buildings or bands. This is a very niche plugin but 100% crucial for self-producing theatre companies. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would.

I’m happy to have found this plugin – it’s just what I’ve been looking for to showcase productions and performances for small-medium sized arts organizations. It’s simple and flexible. I look forward to seeing how it evolves.

I have searched high and low for a plugin that I can use as a database for film titles and can use to display screening schedule at the same time. Theater for WordPress offers the most flexibility! I feel like this is because the framework is simple, making it easy to mix and match the elements you need. The shortcodes also make it easy to use and customise, particularly when displaying screenings.

I use this plugin for workshops and courses and I must say it’s very suitable for this too. I like the way the productions (workshops) and events (scheduled dates you sell tickets for) are organized. I did not see that in any other event plugin. And to top things off, the developer Jeroen is very helpful and responsive and development is going rapidly.

I used this plugin on a theater site for a client. Great support and great plugin. Very easy to use. For both developer and client.

I am using this plugin for one of my client. It is working really well. It is well built with lots of shortcode. It can also be extended by using Advanced Custom Fields to add more fields to your events which is an excellent feature.
This plugin also comes with excellent support. Jerone is very helpful and responsive. He was able to review my issue and provide me with a solution in short time frame. Excellent service!!!

This plugin is very well made. It uses the core elements of WordPress for editing the events.
I like the idea of 1 production, with more events (dates of shows). Better than most eventcalendars that only dulicate the whole content for each same event on another date.
Due to the core elements this plugin can easily be extended with other plugins. I used Duplicate Post (copy productions and events) and Advanced Custom Fields (to add some more fields to the events).
If there’s a downside, than it’s that the output of the shortcode’s comes with some format and not ‘clean text’. But Jeroen was very kind and helpfull to solve this issue for my project.
The plugin is in active development that makes it trustworthy for the future.

Hugely useful, very well made.

I used this plugin on an artist site to make a list of shows. It really works nice and easy. It could do with some extra fields though, like address and telephone number of the venue. In case using the plugin for a venue, it could be interesting to have a field that shows the end date (or time) of an event.
But overall I am very happy with the plugin and the support.

With this plugin it’s easy to show your events. It has a lot of options to adjust for your specific needs when setting up a WP based site for venues like theatre, cinema, arthouse or even a small stage in, for example, a pub. And it’s only growing better. Jeroen picks up tips and requests in no time!

This is an excellent plugin which has all main and basic features needed for running a theatre or cinema for example! Very easy to set up and working with this plugin is easy as 1,2,3. In case you need support, just send an email to the developer and help is offered quickly.
