Peter and the Wolf at the Houston Zoo, Jan 15th

Blog, January 7, 2012

On Sunday, January 15th, 2012, River Oaks Chamber Orchestra (ROCO) and InterActive Theater Company will present two performances of the children’s classic, Peter and the Wolf, in partnership with The Houston Zoo.

The story, whose original intent was to “cultivate musical tastes in children from the first years of school,” still delights and entertains. An ensemble of ROCO musicians will play Prokofiev’s composition while actors from InterActive Theater Company narrate and act out the story. These performances will be part of a program that promotes understanding of Wolf Conservation.

Sunday, January 15, 2012
2:00 and 3:30pm
in the Brown Education Center Auditorium
in The Houston Zoo
6200 Hermann Park Drive
(formerly Golf Course Drive)
Houston, TX 77030
(713) 533-6500
Free with zoo admission
