There is no better place to explore and experience live performing arts than the AT&T Performing Arts Center in the Dallas Arts District. On its vibrant 10-acre downtown campus, the nonprofit Center operates three of the nation’s finest performance venues: Margot and Bill Winspear Opera House (the best stage for Broadway in North Texas), Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre, Annette Strauss Square; Two black box performance spaces, Nancy B. Hamon Hall and 6th Floor Studio Theatre; and the welcoming public green space, Elaine B. and Charles A. Sammons Park with its Flora Cantina.

The Center invites you to explore the best in live theatre, opera, pop, ballet, comedy, cutting-edge speakers and, through its partner TITAS/DANCE UNBOUND the finest dance companies from across the globe. The Center’s stages are a launching pad for world premieres – more than 70 since the Center opened – and an incubator for the city’s emerging arts groups. And this is where you can see the award-winning work of its five resident companies: Anita N. Martinez Ballet Folklorico, Dallas Black Dance Theatre, The Dallas Opera, Dallas Theater Center and Texas Ballet Theater. We also present the best small and emerging Dallas arts groups on our stages through the Elevator Project.
