In the Business of Creating Great Performance Art

Good news: Austin is booming, with no end in sight! Our city continues to attract dynamic companies that bring more people to our region every month.

However, our theater - and the larger Austin Fine Arts community - face a potentially-fatal convergence of challenges, primarily due to rising rents.

We believe we have developed a new model that melds best practices from both business and artistic sectors.

This will do more than provide one troupe of actors. It will stabilize Austin's Arts scene, provide a cultural "safety net" for at-risk youth and adults, and serve as an innovative resource for other endangered arts communities.

We currently are refining our business plan to share with dedicated supporters who share our alarm at the growing problem and wish to be part of the solution.

Our Facility

The Stage Austin has plans for a 5,000 sq ft facility that will include a lounge and a performance venue that will seat up to 120 patrons, flexible stage and seating layouts and even a lobby multi-purpose gallery.
