Foellinger Great Hall

Tryon Festival Theatre

Colwell Playhouse

Studio Theatre

One of the features that makes the Krannert Center popular both with audiences and visiting and local performers is its set of venues. The Center features four indoor theatres with a total audience capacity of nearly 4,000. But, it is most famous for the excellent acoustics of its concert hall, the Foellinger Great Hall, designed by renowned acoustician Cyril Harris. Other venues include the multipurpose Tryon Festival Theatre, the Colwell Playhouse, and the intimate Studio Theatre. An outdoor amphitheatre provides a unique site for student productions and a music festival held each summer. Two decades ahead of its time, Krannert Center was designed for complete wheelchair accessibility. Infrared hearing amplification systems have been added to all four indoor theatres.
