The season also includes return engagements by some of Texas Performing Arts' most innovative artists, including Inner Mongolia's music and cultural sensation AnDa Union, two-time Grammy Award-winning Soweto Gospel Choir, Brazilian percussion master Cyro Baptista, and The National Theatre of Scotland, who played to sold-out audiences in past seasons.

Four (or more) performance subscription packages are now on sale starting at $92.00, and this year you may choose one Broadway show as part of your Texas Performing Arts subscription! Becoming a subscriber not only ensures great seats for each subscription performance, but also offers a host of additional benefits including 20% off ticket prices to fine arts season performances, preferred seating, free and easy ticket exchanges, access to the exclusive subscriber hotline, and guest passes to Bass Concert Hall's Texas Inner Circle Lounge.
Texas Performing Arts continues to rely on support from Texas Inner Circle members because University funding (just 15% of our budget) and ticket sales do not fully cover the cost of presenting the finest performing arts events and the many engagement programs we offer to the UT campus, Austin, and the Central Texas region. Exclusive benefits for members include access to the best seats in the house, pre-sale opportunities for Broadway performances and touring concerts, unlimited entry into the Texas Inner Circle Lounge at Bass Concert Hall, free parking passes, and more.
