Miller Outdoor Theatre irrigation upgrade completed
Improved hillside seating ready for Thursday night’s 90th season opener
New hillside seating will be available to audiences Thursday night when Miller Outdoor Theatre begins its 90th season with the stage musical Thoroughly Modern Millie.
The popular seating area was closed throughout the winter while undergoing irrigation improvements. Fencing will remain around the hill, but hillside seating will be available to all patrons Thursday night. Fencing will remain through May to allow the new grass to more fully take root.
The hillside seating area received aeration and composting, while the back side of the hill received additional soil and sod. Corrective drainage work was performed at the bottom of the seating lawn along the retaining wall.
“Taking care of Miller Outdoor Theatre is a labor of love for us,” said Dawn Ullrich, president and CEO of Houston First Corporation, which manages the facility for the City of Houston.
