Location: Downtown Houston
The Houston Theater District is the one place you can count on for magical happenings any night of the week, all year long. Did you know that Houston is one of only five United States cities that has a permanent professional opera, symphony, ballet, and theater? All of them “live” in the same seventeen-block radius of downtown Houston.
On any given night, you can see the Houston Grand Opera, the Houston Ballet, the Houston Symphony, Alley Theatre, a regional Tony-award-winning theater company, Theatre Under the Stars (Houston’s own musical theatre company), a presentation of Society for the Performing Arts (which brings an eclectic mix of performers), or Da Camera, a jazz and chamber music organization.
The Houston Theater District ranks second behind only New York City for the number of theater seats within a concentrated downtown area, with nearly 13,000 seats for live performances and 1,500 movie seats. There are many shows that the whole family will enjoy, and with thirty restaurants and six hotels a short distance away, seeing a play, ballet, or symphony in Houston couldn’t be easier.
Sometimes people think these events are too expensive, but with last-minute student and senior “rush” tickets and half-price “sales” on slow nights, the theatre can be surprisingly affordable.
