Rice University | Brockman Hall for Opera Tour

Brought to you by the Interior Architecture Committee

Please Join AIA Houston’s Interior and Emerging Professional Committees as we have this opportunity to enjoy a guided tour of the city’s newest music and performing arts venue. Rice University’s Shepherd School of Music debuted the new Brockman Hall for Opera in April 2022. The 84,000-square-foot Brockman Hall for Opera, the Alice Pratt Brown Hall, and their adjoining plaza comprise the Brockman Music and Performing Arts Center.
The venue is also home to The Morrison Theater — a three-tiered, 600-seat, European-style theater boasting an orchestra pit for 70 musicians. It is designed specifically for young singers to project their voices without overextending themselves and is the first theater with such a configuration among U.S. universities and conservatories.
