The Theatre of Living Arts, fondly known as the TLA, was a movie house in its early years, showing art house films and weekly midnight screenings of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Since then, it has become Philadelphia's premiere small concert venue, welcoming up-and-coming artists from all genres to rock the 1,000 concert goers it is able to hold within its walls. 20+ years in business and you can still catch a show almost any night of the week-just walk yourself right up to our box office and come on in to join the party.
