Magic and gore onstage at the Houston Shakespeare Festival
The City of Houston and the University of Houston theater department are teaming up for another Houston Shakespeare Festival at Hermann Park’s Miller Outdoor Theatre from July 20 – August 12.
They’ll be presenting Titus Andronicus – a veritable bloodbath of a play and a personal favorite – and The Tempest – much more date-friendly and famous.
All shows are free – but you do need to arrive early to get tickets for covered seating. You can call for more info at: 713-284-8352. Showtimes:
“The Tempest”: 8:30 p.m. July 29, Aug. 2, 4, 10, 12
“Titus Andronicus: 8:30 p.m. July 30, Aug. 3, 5, 9, 11
Just an FYI ~ I went to both performances and they were truly OUTSTANDING. My only complaint was that it was freaking hot… even in the covered seating area.
However, I was especially happy to see the theater filled-to-capacity along with a large amount of people hanging out on the lawn. I suppose what truly touched my little black heart was to see so many people enjoying live theater performances!
Bravo!!!
