About this space

Wide room scenes, character-filled seating areas, and close-up prop details offer plenty of ways to vary your shots. Browse the studio photos to plan the backdrops that fit your concept.

Located at 1609 Terry Street in Houston, The Retro Play House is available seven days a week, from 8 AM to midnight, at $100 per hour with no cleaning fee. Include your preferred date, shoot type, and full guest and crew count in your enquiry.
