Bass Concert Hall

UT Campus, 23rd & East Campus Drive (map) 512.471.2787

Completed
in 1981, this flagship theatre of Texas Performing Arts is the largest
in Austin, with seating for 2,900. The Nancy Lee and Perry R. Bass
Concert Hall boasts a vast stage, an orchestra pit capable of holding
100 musicians, dressing rooms to accommodate more than 100 performers,
computerized lighting, advanced sound and rigging systems, and a mammoth
backstage area complete with workshops for carpentry, costumes,
painting, metalwork and props. Ranking among the finest performance
spaces in the country both in size and accoutrements, it is no wonder
that Bass Concert


Hall attracts the world’s greatest performers and
full-scale productions.


All ages.


Over the years, Texas Performing Arts continued to grow and prosper
through the remarkable support of our donors and sponsors. In addition
to helping us renovate Bass Concert Hall in 2007, support from donors
and sponsors underwrites our Campus and Community Engagement offerings
and our recently established Student Ticket Fund, which makes it
possible for students of all ages to purchase $10 tickets to all of our
performances.
