Great idea, can be fun...but...
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 9/26/05
I really think Miller is a terrific idea; however, it is SO hard to hear the actors on the stage. I went for a Shakespeare play and sat at the top of the hill--couldn't hear. Could barely see them, furthermore. So we moved closer, as close as you can get on the grassy knoll without toppling into a concrete crevice, and STILL couldn't hear very well. It was fun, though, although this mainly depends on your company. :)

fun place for free
By dw, 8/23/05
Miller is quite a nice place to take your friends for free. It's right next to Rice University, Med Center, the Rail line, and the Museum district and zoo. There are free performances, musicals, operas, and symphonies at different times of year. It's the only theatre next to a hill in Houston. Bring a blanket and some food. The Shakespeare plays are not to miss every summer.

Free and Eclectic
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 9/27/05
I always attend events at the theatre during the summer because they are free! How else can you hear great music or watch Elizabethan Shakespeare at such a low price? They offer every type of event you can imagine so check it out for a fun night out with friends or a romantic date in the park. Special events are offered during they day for kids too. It's close to the zoo, so you can zoom over there after the theatre!

Free Concerts and Shows
By gradstudent, 9/26/05
There are amazing performances at Miller Outdoor -- children's theater, variety shows, Houston symphony concerts, multicultural celebrations, dance performances, etc. And, best of all, it's free! You can bring your own food (or buy concessions). You'll enjoy the fun, friendly crowd. It's open all spring, summer, and fall!

Relax
By rena, 7/16/06
I love the atmosphere, the jazz music, the outdoor theater. The best time to visit is during the summer when the kids can play and you can relax.
