Strauss Hall in Hancher Auditorium is a rehearsal space, a performance space, and more. Performances are conceived, created, and refined, and artists present work well served by a smaller venue with flexible configurations for artists and audiences.
Club Hancher events – intimate performances suitable for a club setting – feature table seating and concessions for sale.
In recognition of Sue and John Strauss
