Four architecturally noteworthy performance venues are located here, including the 2000-seat Winspear Opera House, home to the Dallas Opera; the 1500-seat Wyly Theatre; and Strauss Square, an open-air stage.
The vertically stacked, 12-story Wyly Theatre broke the architectural mold by challenging traditional theater designs. It's worth seeing just for the building. It is the headquarters of the Dallas Theater Center, a major American regional theatre, producing classic dramas, musicals and edgy new works.
