Herberger Theater Center

Comment on Facebook

The Herberger Theater Center was conceived as a pivotal piece in the redevelopment and revitalization of downtown Phoenix. Built in 1989 to support and foster the growth of performing arts in Phoenix as a performance venue and arts incubator, the Herberger Theater Center has contributed to the cultural and educational development of the Valley. In that time, more than two million patrons, including 300,000 school-aged children have shared the unique experience of live performing arts.
