Asset Overview
The Heinen Theatre is an elegant, theatre, modern and professionally staffed, that maintains an Art Deco charm in its architectural details and stunning stained glass skylight.
Temple Beth Israel is the work of Joseph Finger, an architect who, in ‘20s and ‘30s, shaped the Houston skyline.
Congregation Beth Israel, the oldest congregation in Texas, built their temple in 1924 and in 1967 passed the building on to Houston Independent School District. In 1971, HISD dedicated it to the city's first integrated high school, the now internationally recognized High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. In 1982, the fledgling Houston Community College moved in, and completed its transformation into a theatre. Now a Recorded Texas Historical Landmark, the Heinen hosts productions large and small, and it's a favorite venue for Houston's performing arts community.
