THEATER
Arkansas's heritage comes to life on the stage. It's a story that unfolds when our many talented actors
and actresses take the stage to lead us down a path
to another time and place. Through the performing arts we see firsthand
Arkansas's rich history. Our stages also welcome some of the finest national
productions to be offered. When the curtain rises, it is evident that
the performing arts are thriving in Arkansas.
