Texas Performing Arts unveiled an all-new 2022-23 season of interdisciplinary performance that features some of the most significant artists working in the live arts around the world today.

With a lineup of 15 events curated by Executive and Artistic Director Bob Bursey, the new season is reflective of Austin’s expanding role as a global site of innovation and creation, building on the organization’s legacy as one of the most significant university arts centers in the country. The 2022-23 season continues to expand the depth and breadth of Texas Performing Arts programming and follows the 40th Anniversary season that welcomed more than 150,000 patrons.

Hallmarks of the season, which represents the bold vitality of a broad range of contemporary artists and their practices, include numerous premieres and debuts, an emphasis on new work, support for Austin-based artists, myriad cross-disciplinary collaborations, and a throughline of amplifying voices of artists of color.

“This season we want to share the best in new performance from around the world,” said Texas Performing Arts Executive and Artistic Director Bob Bursey. “At the same time, we want to give a platform to leading artists who are based in Austin, reflecting the unique interplay of global perspectives and local creativity that is Austin.”

Tickets for the 2022-23 Season performances go on sale to the public on Friday, June 10. Texas Inner Circle members can access presale tickets starting Monday, June 6. For more information, visit texasperformingarts.org.

Texas Performing Arts’ 2022-23 Season complements its previously announced 22-23 Broadway In Austin lineup and its Texas Welcomes series of national touring artists in popular music, comedy, and family entertainment. Full performance calendar at texasperformingarts.org.
