The symphony will also be out here really excited july the fourth with wonderful patriotic music and then the Shakespeare Houston Shakespeare Festival loads in and I believe this is their 47th year. This historic theater has entertained generations of visitors over the last 100 years and many famous faces have graced this very stage. Richard Nixon, it was one of the, I believe it was a campaign stop um came and this was the old theater was you know the band shell, the concrete band shell and gave a speech to thousands of people. The symphony had big bird out here as the guest conductor. Another really great moment theater under the stars produced south pacific half of the orchestra pit was a swimming pool. It was a waterfall. I mean it was fabulous. Connecting the past and present. Bring your family roll down that hill and enjoy Houston's most beloved cultural treasure this year. Celebrate 100 with us.
