Krannert Center’s performances offer audiences the chance to experience and be transformed by world-class music, theatre and dance from around the globe. While thousands of attendees experience the transformative power of our presented works, an increasing number are also engaging through research collaborations, international residencies, school-based arts integration, and sustained creative partnerships. These efforts contribute to the broader university vision and support the elevation of the arts as essential to a sense of civic belonging, healing, and public education.
