The Venues
The Dallas Center for the Performing Arts will include four new venues and a public park, designed by world-renowned architects and landscape architects:
A 2,200-seat venue, designed by Foster + Partners for performances of opera, ballet, musical theatre and premier touring productions.
A flexible 600-seat theatre for classic and experimental performances, designed by REX/OMA, Joshua Prince-Ramus (principal in charge) and Rem Koolhaas.
A new home for the city's premier outdoor performing arts venue, designed by Foster + Partners as a serene open-air setting that accommodates up to 5,000 people.
A main stage production space for Dallas' smaller performing arts organizations, designed by Skidmore, Owings and Merrill and constructed by the City of Dallas.
A 10-acre public park designed by Michel Desvigne that will unify the venues and create a dynamic cultural destination in downtown Dallas.
