The Chairs
The 90-seat house at Undermain Theatre is also unique. These chairs, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, were originally housed in the Kalita Humphreys Theater. Obtained by the Undermain from the Dallas Theater Center in 1989, the seating was designed by Taliesin architects, the firm that completed many of Frank Lloyd Wright’s projects after his death in 1959. Its design was based on a variety of ideas promoted by Wright himself and by Paul Baker (Director of the Dallas Theater Center in 1957).

—Frank S. Nugent (1908–1965)
“My verse
has brought me
no roubles to spare:
no craftsmen have made
mahogany chairs for my house.”
