DALLAS CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS

Set to open in October of 2009, the Dallas Center for the Performing Arts is slated to become the best venue to see hundreds of performances a year—from opera, ballet and musicals to concerts and Broadway shows. The exciting new development will include four sensational venues—the Margot and Bill Winspear Opera House, the Dee and Charles Wyly Theatre, the Annette Strauss Artist Square and the City Performance Hall—all encompassed by the 10-acre urban Performance Park, complete with pathways and picnic areas.

DALLAS PUPPET THEATER

For more than 25 years, the Dallas Puppet Theater has been providing exceptional family entertainment at the AT&T Auditorium in the Women’s Museum, an Institute for the Future. Guests can take advantage of an ongoing series of family performances, guest artists, school programs, workshops and outreach opportunities.

DALLAS SUMMER MUSICALS

Dallas Summer Musicals had its start nearly 70 years ago as an outdoor summer musical series. The benefit of air conditioning brought the series indoors and the popular Dallas Summer Musicals has since played host to such well known musicals as Hello Dolly!, Peter Pan, Fiddler on the Roof, The Wizard of Oz, Wicked and the Lion King.

DALLAS SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

Take in the melodic sounds of the renowned Dallas Symphony Orchestra. Housed within the beautiful Meyerson Symphony Center, the DSO offers a series of concerts for a variety of audiences, along with opportunities for community education, contests and events.

THE MAJESTIC THEATRE

The Majestic Theatre has been a part of the area’s entertainment scene since its opening in April of 1921 to such acts as Houdini and Mae West. The Majestic Theatre closed its doors in early 1976 for restoration and renovation, reopening in January of 1983 and earning recognition on the National Register of Historic Places. Today, the 1,704-seat theatre, located on the border of downtown Dallas, invites guests to enjoy musicals, dramas, dinner productions, concerts and more.
