The concert theatre at Austin Peay State University is located in the Music and Communication Building. Home for music and mass communications teaching programs at the University, the building was completed in 1990. The facility includes the concert theatre, vocal and instrumental rehearsal rooms, teaching studios, and practice rooms. In addition, there are accommodations for the communications department and WAPX, Austin Peay's student-operated radio station.

The 600-seat concert theater has seating distributed in three areas: a main floor, a terrace, and a mezzanine. The stage is outfitted with vertical and horizontal pivoting panels that allow the concert/recital platform to be transformed, with little labor and in a short time, into a proscenium stage (with hard or soft masking wings) for opera, dance or musical theater. Especially noteworthy is how the auditorium can easily be adapted to the requirements of different music programs, quickly shifting from a large platform accommodating full symphonic orchestra or orchestra with chorus, to a smaller platform suitable for chamber music or solo recitals. Guest artists and ensembles can use the facility's choral, instrumental and opera/dance rehearsal halls for practice and instruction.

Artec provided Design and Planning services covering Pre-Design Phase services, Auditorium Design, Noise & Vibration Control and Facility Planning consulting services for this facility. The architect for the facility was Lyle + Cook / Clark and Associates.
