Houston Shakespeare Festival, the professional arm of the University of Houston’s School of Theatre & Dance, uses Shakespeare’s works to draw together our diverse community to explore our common humanity.

Produced by the UH School of Theatre & Dance and the Kathrine G. McGovern College of the Arts.

WHERE TO MEET: We will meet at 7:15 p.m. by the picnic tables near the concession stand. Then go to the hill and set up. If you can't make it at 7:15 , we'll hold some space. Look for our location in the comments. The play begins at 8:15 p.m.

The hill is divided with the left side allowing chairs and the right reserved for blankets. We sit on the chair side, but close enough to the middle to accommodate blankets.

WHAT TO BRING:
Chair or blanket, drinks and snacks. Blankets may have the view obstructed by chairs. Adult beverages are allowed but the city prohibits glass containers in the park. (We don't check.) It's always more fun when people bring snacks to share.

Parking:
There are two main parking areas for Miller.
The Zoo lot has more spaces
Parking Lot F
