Season Subscriptions for the 2008/09 Season On-Sale Now!

Did you know that the Paramount has more stories than almost any other downtown building? Well, at least stories of first dates, favorite movies and once-in-a lifetime experiences. And, with so many buildings getting taller, we feel an incredible challenge to add even more “stories” to the Paramount. That’s why we are going above and beyond for the 2008/09 Season to over-deliver and give you an even greater season (and reason) to join us again for another year. Are you ready? Let the stories unfold…

Subscribe By Phone: Call us at (512) 472-5470 (option 2) to speak to a Paramount representative and order your 2008/09 season subscription over the phone.

Remember, season subscribers get the best seats, avoid service charges, and receive free parking to all their shows. Plus, every subscriber is automatically a member of the Paramount Club which includes free gifts, members-only events, and discounts to downtown restaurants.

It is, quite simply, one of the most acclaimed and enduring performances in the history of theatre. Nearly 50 years ago, a young actor took the stage in a tiny off-Broadway theatre and introduced the world to a man they'd never forget. The actor was Hal Holbrook. The man was Mark Twain.
