Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts
The 1,800-seat Muriel Kauffman Theatre is designed to be visually striking, yet retain an intimate experience for both audiences and performers. Inspired by the great opera houses of Europe, audiences are seated in a vineyard-style, semicircle configuration facing the stage—bringing them closer to the performers than in traditional auditorium-style proscenium venues. Audience seats that are 22-24 inches in width provide maximum comfort.
Lyric Opera mainstage productions are held in Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts. Please refer to Lyric Opera correspondence for venue details on all other performances.
