The Wortham Center is home to Houston Ballet and Houston Grand Opera. Since its opening in 1987, Wortham has entertained more than 8 million people.

Bold and beautiful, the Wortham is a facility like no other. It is a masterful, creative playground for performing artists and offers an array of public spaces, both monumental and intimate. Eugene Aubry of Morris Aubry Architects designed the Wortham Center.

The Wortham Center has two theaters, the Alice and George Brown Theater and the Lillie and Roy Cullen Theater.

The 1,100-seat Cullen Theater hosts smaller opera and ballet productions and serves other arts groups, such as Da Camera of Houston, Mercury, and Society for the Performing Arts. Its intimate size is ideal for solo artists, chamber music, small touring shows and recitals.
