About the Theatre

FOUNDED IN 1959, DALLAS THEATER CENTER WAS ONE OF THE FIRST REGIONAL THEATERS IN THE UNITED STATES AND WAS MARKED BY THE BUILDING OF THE KALITA HUMPHREYS THEATER, DESIGNED BY THE LEGENDARY FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT. Dallas Theater Center continues to grow in stature as one of the most exciting regional theaters in the country, while remaining fully responsive to the time and place in which we live; to the issues that shape our lives and thoughts; and to people who populate our diverse community.
