Maxwell Performing Arts Theatre
The Grover C. Maxwell Performing Arts Theatre http://www.aug.edu/pat/Welcome.html is the cultural heart of the ASU campus. Students take center stage at the Maxwell Theatre. The Department of Fine Arts ensembles and the ASU Theatre events provide ample performance opportunities for students. Students, faculty, staff, and community members attend a broad variety of events. Through the Lyceum Series, the Student Activities Office presents national and international music, dance, and theatre companies. The Harry Jacobs Chamber Music Society brings a rich series of world class performers to campus and the Augusta Symphony calls the Maxwell Theatre home for its Publix Family Series.
The Maxwell's stage and stage thrust multi-level extension make the theatre extremely versatile. Performances from opera and theatre to symphony and dance all feel at home on the Maxwell stage. The theatre is an intimate venue for the audience with each of its 750 seats remarkably close to the stage. Many performances at the Maxwell Theatre are free to ASU students, faculty, and staff with a valid ASU ID, and all performances are reasonably priced for the general public.
