Fusebox x TPA Partnership
Anchoring our new Fusebox Presents series is a new partnership between Fusebox and Texas Performing Arts that includes the presentation of multiple bold projects throughout the year.
“This extraordinary partnership marks the beginning of a new chapter for Fusebox, building upon our 20-year history of sharing unique live performances. In the past this has primarily happened through our festival in April. But as Austin continues to grow, it has become apparent that Fusebox needs to grow as well. This collaboration allows us to share more remarkable artists with thousands of more people throughout the year, and TPA is the perfect partner.” -Ron Berry, Executive & Co-Artistic Director of Fusebox
The partnership features vivid live performances that span music, theatre, dance, and film—reflecting the boundary-less, unique experiences Texas Performing Arts and Fusebox have created through past collaborations such as Robin Frohardt’s critically acclaimed The Plastic Bag Store (2021).
