We attended the Lubbock Moonlight Musicals last Saturday evening. It was the perfect evening for an outing and some theater. The Moonlight Musicals are a new addition to the Lubbock Arts scene in the last couple of years. It's performed in the Mackenzie State park and is house in the Wells Fargo Ampitheater. What a great venue overlooking the Canyon and trees of the park.
The musical (part of a series of three this summer) invited patrons to come with their lawn chairs and their picinic baskets and enjoy the whole experience. Other than a slight gust of wind from a passing thunderstorm, the evening was flawless and very enjoyable.
This is the product of a community that values the arts. The cast (median age 20) were young and energetic. The dances sequences were fantastic. The only downer was the sound-maybe it could have been a little louder. Produced with a live orchestra--it was enjoyable experience.
The musicals will continue in July and August as they present PIRATES OF PENZANCE and THE MUSIC MAN.
