The San Angelo PAC is a theatrical campus in San Angelo, Texas, including the Stephens Performing Arts Center and Murphey Performance Hall, which opened to the public after renovation in 2016 with Mark Levine as the founding Executive Director. The complex is located downtown just behind city hall.

  • The Stephens Performing Arts Center (dedicated on September 8, 2016) is located in the renovating Coca-Cola warehouse with a new 301-seat theater space, a black box performance space, 6 ballet studios, a Pilates studio, and scene shops. The building also houses Ballet San Angelo and Be Theatre.
  • The Elta Joyce Murphey Performance Hall (rededicated on October 3, 2017) is attached to City Hall, and was originally constructed in 1928. The San Angelo Symphony and Ballet San Angelo are regular users of the Performance Hall.

The first full performance season (2017/18) encompassing both performance spaces was announced on June 15, 2017.
