Klaus To Manage Durham PAC

Former Walnut Creek Amphitheatre GM Bob Klaus has been tapped to manage the under-construction Durham Performing Arts Center in North Carolina. 

The $44 million, 2,700-capacity PAC is expected to open later this year.  Klaus has also worked on special projects for the Bethel Woods Center, Koka Booth Amphitheatre and the Performing Arts Theatre in Holly Springs, N.C.

“Bob Klaus has national expertise in the management of performing arts venues. He also holds keen market awareness, having managed the award-winning Alltel Pavilion for nearly a decade,” executive vice president of Nederlander executive VP Nick Scandalios said in a statement. “Under his watch, the amphitheatre received more fan favorite awards than any other entertainment facility in the Carolinas and was perennially ranked among the top 15 venues of its kind in the U.S.”
