Elliott Hall of Music

Elliott Hall of Music is regal and understated. It’s a venue that energizes the glamour of a theatrical production or the simplicity of a renowned author's book talk. Elliott Hall is filled with the spirit of the many legends who have graced its stage—from Bob Hope to the Dalai Lama, Robin WIlliams to Maya Angelou.
