The city liked the company enough to approve demolishing the Music Hall and the Coliseum, clearing the way for a theater that has plenty of room for hydraulic lifts and superior acoustics. The 1997 season marked TUTS' last year in the Music Hall, and construction on the new $71 million building began in the summer of 1998.

A good deal of Houston's cultural... more

I saw Peter Pan here and it was an excellent show - almost as good as the original on Broadway. The Hobby Center is beautiful and well designed, and being able to grab a drink at Artista between acts is an added bonus.

Gauranteed entertainment for people of all ages. Bring a blanket, food, and some wine and sit out under the stars while you watch a free theatre performance. I saw Romeo and Juliet over this past summer and was more than impressed. Don't forget the bug spray though! The mosquitos out there are viscious!
