The Bass Concert Hall stage turns gallery as Texas Performing Arts presents the exhibit Behind the Scenes: The Art of the Hollywood Backdrop. Visit mid-century Hollywood without leaving your home with guidance and insight from professor Karen Maness, Texas Performing Arts Scenic Art Supervisor and co-author of the book "The Art of the Hollywood Backdrop". This showcase will give you a glimpse into the never before seen world of Hollywood backdrops and show how UT students have been able to interact with and learn from these important works. A live Q&A will take place at the end, so be sure to have questions ready - you can submit them on Twitter using #TPAmgmbackdrops .
