Park underground on the ORANGE level. There is an underground tunnel directly into the theater lobby. Then you don't have to worry about the weather.

Beautiful experience. We were able to purchase items after the show and take pictures with the cast members. Can't wait to go again.

We lived in Houston during the 1990s and were regulars at the Ballet and Opera...when we returned to Texas (Dallas) we continued to be season subscribers to the opera and the ballet. Although it's a bit of a hike (240 miles) to Houston, we find that the weekend break is truly worthwhile.
We enjoy both the ballet and the opera...

I'm running out of superlatives to describe the theatres in Houston; they are all simply marvelous...the performances, the acoustics, the seating, you are transformed into another world with each one. If I could arrange my return trips just to see a show each time, I would!!
