Miller Outdoor Theatre Celebrates 100th Anniversary
It's almost time for opening night at Miller Outdoor Theatre! This season marks the 100th Anniversary this year, and the lineup promises to delight and entertain audiences.
To kick off opening night, the Trinity Irish Dance Company will take the stage on Friday, March 17th at 8:00 PM. Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with Miller this year with our dynamic opening performance! This sophisticated and cutting-edge Irish dance troupe will leave you breathless. A dance legacy that is rooted in tradition yet forward-looking and ever evolving, TIDC dazzles with hard-driving percussive power and aerial grace while sending a clear message of female empowerment.
The following night is the first of a select number of specially curated events created to help celebrate the anniversary. Come dressed in your best 1920's attire and partake in celebratory activities which include learning the Charleston from professional swing dancers, getting your photo taken with our larger-than-life birthday cake, photo ops with a Model-t Ford, a vintage phone booth, and Miller's very own café, and interact with our roaming entertainment dressed in 1920's attire. The fun starts at 6:00 PM followed by a rip-roaring performance from the Hot Sardines at 8:00 PM!
