Look Again
elcome to Bass Performance Hall. On behalf of the Performing Arts Fort Worth staff and Board of Directors, I thank you for joining us.
Tonight, it gives me great pleasure to welcome Mariachi Herencia de México to the Bass Hall stage for the first time. Hailing from Chicago, this virtuosic band is comprised of 14 musicians, all between the ages of 18 and 32, making them a new bicultural generation of mariachi music! With five chart-topping albums and two Latin Grammy® nominations, this group represents the future of mariachi, pushing the boundaries of traditional mariachi music while simultaneously honoring the past and celebrating the present. We thank you for joining us this Hispanic Heritage Month for what’s sure to be an electrifying and unforgettable night of Mexican music and culture.
Whether it’s your first time with us or you’re a Bass Hall regular, I’d like to invite you to join us again soon. We’ve got a busy fall coming up at the Hall! Continuing our Irwin Steel Popular Entertainment Series, singer-songwriter Monte Montgomery returns this Saturday to McDavid Studio. Later this month, Fort Worth favorites Lyle Lovett and his Large Band return to the Hall for one night only, October 22.
Our 2024-2025 Broadway at the Bass Season presented by PNC Bank continues this Halloween as the ghost-with-the-most Beetlejuice haunts the Hall October 29 – November 3, followed by the new musical comedy, Mrs. Doubtfire, November 5-10, and Dr. Seuss’ beloved Christmas classic How the Grinch Stole Christmas! The Musical , November 19-24. Visit www.basshall.com to learn more about all of the exciting shows coming up and to secure your seats for your next visit with us.
As always, thank you to all of our sponsors and donors for their generous contributions and continued support. Now, please join me as we welcome for the very first time, Mariachi Herencia de México!
