Three Nights of Movie Musicals: The Music Man. 8pm. Confidence man Harold Hill arrives in staid River City intending to scam the community with his usual scam of offering to equip and train a boy's marching band—even though he has no musical skill—then skip town with the money. Things go awry when he falls for a librarian he tries to divert from exposing him while he inadvertently enriches the town with a love of music. Houston events at Miller Outdoor Theater.

Theatre Under The Stars - The Color Purple. Oprah Winfrey Presents The Color Purple is a saga of hope, inspiration and triumph, centered around Celie, a woman who endures insurmountable hardships within her own family and struggles to find her identity and love.

Stages Theatre - The Andrews Brothers. It's 1943 in the South Pacific, and tonight the Andrews Sisters headline the big USO show.
