TITAS was established by Tom Adams in 1982 as a not-for-profit cultural and educational institution with no pre-existing audience, only a belief that the Metroplex was eager to see the best the dance world had to offer. Today TITAS is the premier Texas presenter of major dance attractions in a series format, with one of the most successful programs in the Southwest United States.
After achieving success with its dance presentations, TITAS began a companion series of music events in 1988. Since then, TITAS has continued to deliver a growing audience the world's finest performing arts at affordable prices and has established education and outreach programs not available elsewhere in the community.
Now approaching its Silver Season under the leadership of Executive Director Charles Santos (appointed in 2001), TITAS has presented over 130 of the world's finest performing ensembles, ranging from the greatest classical companies to the young American ensembles currently leading the dance world to ethnic troupes rich in the history of other cultures. The eclectic nature of TITAS programming provides the community a window to the world from Dallas that would not otherwise be open.
