IMPORTANT NOTICE:
Sham and deceptive housing companies are approaching Thespian participants and exhibitors with fraudulent offerings of hotel rooms at significant discounts. Lured by highly attractive rates, exhibitors and attendees fall prey to these impostors losing significant deposits, discovering hidden costs, up front charges or being bait and switched to hotel rooms they never booked (meaning: if you do decide to use these callers you will likely find out upon arrival that you have been scammed as you won’t have a reservation).
These companies are in no way affiliated with Texas Thespians or the official hotels in Grapevine, TX. They troll the internet and association web sites looking for annual events and then gain access to email addresses for direct contact or draw attendees to their web sites posing as your association’s sanctioned housing provider. Do not give them your credit card information.
Amy Jordan is the ONLY official contact for Thespian HOUSING and will contact you directly to make a reservation. Booking through our normal registration processes as we have in years past is the official channel for booking and ensures you will be working with a reputable company, (direct with the property we are contracted with) and that your credit card information is secure, and that you will benefit from all services provided to conference attendees/participants at the official hotels.
If you are contacted by anyone asking if you need a room reservation for the convention or if they represent themselves as the "Official Texas Thespian housing provider,” please get as much information as you can, then contact Texas Thespians immediately. It is our goal to provide a safe and secure registration process for our delegates.
