Oscar G. Brockett Theatre

The Oscar G. Brockett Theatre is an intimate setting of 244 seats. Utilized most frequently for student productions of the Department of Theatre & Dance, this theatre helps develop budding new talent into experienced performers as part of Texas Performing Art’s educational mission.

In April 2001, after 37 years as the College of Fine Arts’ most versatile performance space, the Winship Drama Building’s Theatre Room was formally dedicated as the “Oscar G. Brockett Theatre.”

Dr. Oscar G. Brockett, one of The University’s most distinguished scholars and professors, is former Dean of the College of Fine Arts, the senior professor in the Department of Theatre and Dance, and one of the nation’s foremost authorities on theatre history.
