Printed in the U.S.A. DEAR PATRONS © Carter Rose Welcome to the AT&T Performing Arts Center and to The Band’s Visit. It’s one of the most award-winning musicals in history, winning ten (ten!) Tonys including Best Musical, and a Grammy for Best Musical Theater Album. Such a great musical should be seen in a great venue, so we couldn’t wait for North Texas audiences to experience it right here in the Winspear Opera House. If it’s Broadway you love, next up is An American in Paris, followed by Bandstand then The SpongeBob Musical! And we recently announced our upcoming 2020/2021 season, which includes Sister Act, Summer: The Donna Summer Musical, Oklahoma!, What the Constitution Means to Me, Waitress, Hadestown, and The Prom. This season is the newest and most current we’ve ever presented. None of these shows have been seen in the Winspear Opera House before, and most are touring for the very first time. Even the classic Oklahoma! has been reimagined. And the AT&T Performing Arts Center is more than Broadway. We present concerts, like Il Volo on February 27; comedy, like Jeanne Robertson on February 28; the finest dance companies in the world, with our partner TITAS/Dance Unbound, like Alvin Ailey next month; family shows like Lightwire Theater’s The Ugly Duckling in March; and speakers, like Hasan Minhaj who will be here in April. We provide stages for our five esteemed resident companies: Anita N. Martinez Ballet Folklorico, Dallas Black Dance Theatre, The Dallas Opera, Dallas Theater Center and Texas Ballet Theater. And through our Elevator Project we present the best of new and emerging Dallas arts groups. No matter what kind of live performing arts you prefer, you’ll find many reasons to visit our campus again soon. AT&T Performing Arts Center – it’s Yours to Discover!
