Why go
Sarofim Hall’s theatrical decoration rewards looking beyond the stage: gold details meet midnight-blue walls beneath a ceiling of fiber-optic stars modeled on the Texas night sky. Zilkha Hall provides a smaller setting. The tall glass lobby connects the performance spaces visually with downtown’s skyscrapers, City Hall and Tranquillity Park.
What to look for
- Sarofim Hall’s celestial ceiling depicts a Texas night sky.
- Sol LeWitt’s Wall Drawing 2002 occupies the Grand Lobby.
- Tony Cragg’s bronze In Minds suggests human profiles outside on Hines Plaza.
Useful to know
- Allow time before the performance to see the lobby art and exterior sculpture.
- Check which hall hosts your production before planning your entrance.
- Check current elevator arrangements if using upper seating levels.
