The Dallas Theater Center produces classic, contemporary and new plays of the highest artistic quality. Their mission is to create communal experiences that inspire new ways of thinking and living; and to nurture and help shape the future of the American theater.

The Theatre Center was originally conceived in 1954 by Beatrice Handel, whose vision was to organize a civically supported theater oriented to presenting fine drama and teaching people how to do it. Backed by John Rosenfield, then the amusements editor of "The Dallas Morning News", the theatre finally opened in 1959 in a building designed by legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright, and named the Kalita Humphreys Theater.

The Dallas Theater Center, with its roots deeply implanted in the community, continues to grow in stature as one of the most exciting regional theaters in the country today. The Theater Center remains fully responsive to the time and place in which we live; to the issues that shape our lives and thoughts; and to the rhythms, images and contradictions of contemporary American life.
