AT&T Performing Arts Center, Performing arts center in Dallas, United States.
The AT&T Performing Arts Center is an arts complex in downtown Dallas with multiple performance venues and open spaces across a large site. The facility includes opera houses and specialized theaters with different room configurations designed for various types of performances.
The center opened in 2009 and marked the completion of a major urban development project for Dallas's Arts District. This project resulted from years of planning and collaboration between the city and private donors to create a cultural hub.
The center is home to several resident companies including Dallas Opera and Texas Ballet Theater that present varied shows throughout the year. These groups shape the artistic life of the city and draw visitors seeking opera, ballet, and contemporary dance performances.
The complex sits downtown with good pedestrian access and different entrances for each building. Visitors should plan ahead and check ahead of time since events vary regularly at this location.
One of the theaters features a distinctive aluminum exterior shell and a flexible interior layout that allows quick transformation between different stage arrangements. This versatility lets the same venue host very different art forms.
