About

Cullen Performance Hall is a historic proscenium theater on the University of Houston campus, opened in the fall of 1950 and housed within the Ezekiel W. Cullen Building. The venue hosts concerts, public lectures, comedy, dance, and theater, and has welcomed notable performers such as Linda Ronstadt, The Ramones, Elvis Costello, and Iggy Pop. Set at the end of University Drive in the Third Ward area, it serves both the campus community and touring acts in an intimate, seated setting.
