Reviews Are In... Disney's Newsies is a Hit!

Audiences and critics agree - ZTP's Disney's Newsies "occupies Zilker Hillside Theatre spectacularly!"

Bob Abelman of the Austin Chronicle wrote:

"...song and dance are right in the wheelhouse of Zilker Theatre Productions' outdoor musical ventures. So, the litmus test for this one is whether the talent on stage – under Joey Banks' direction and with the accompaniment of a fantastic 10-piece orchestra with Beth Everett at the helm – can sell these goods with the same charm and moxie that their characters sell theirs.

Yes, they can. ... every one of them offers a distinctive, thoroughly endearing character and radiates youthful energy and enthusiasm. The ensemble fills the double-wide stage with waves of pitch-perfect sound"

We are so thrilled so many have joined us for Disney's Newsies already this summer, but there are many more chances to come enjoy the show! Catch a performance Thursday-Sunday nights at 8:15 p.m. through August 13 at the beautiful Zilker Hillside Theater!

See you on the Hillside!

I try to cycle often on the hike and bike trail of lady bird lake. I've even bought a bicycle rack for my 2010 Nissan Rogue SUV. As a Real Estate Industry person, I apologize if my lack of a Range Rover or Mercedes Benz car ownership doesn't suffice. In regards to health, being a newborn dad will really sober you up. Coffee has long since replaced booze in my blood system. When you routinely wake up circa 7:00 am to hug your baby daughter, change her diaper, feed her, have playtime and then drive her to daycare/preschool you need to feel healthy, rested and alert. 1 thing I do miss as a responsible married family man, is the carefree, outgoing, live music and bar hopping nightlife of Austin, Texas. Let's be hone...

Austin, Texas has a DOG PROBLEM.....

Austin, Texas has a DOG problem (Letter I wrote and sent) Dear Austin City Council Members, Hello and well regards, Yesterday afternoon during a simple bicycle pedal exercise ride, I was physically chased by an unleashed Pitbull dog in ZILKER PARK. Then directly after recovering from almost being mauled by an unleashed pit-bull in Zilker Park, I attempted to buy a Gatorade at a nearby Barton Springs Road Market, but that didn't go well either, as an interior Market commercial customer had a massive mixed breed dog trolling through the diminutive shopping isles. Then this morning, at a Coffee shop on SoCo, there was only 1 entry way in and out, and there was another large, although more docile mixed breed dog. All of this has occurred in less than 24 hours. What's the point? The City of Austin's dog friendliness and citizen enabling of irresponsible dog owners has gotten out of control. Newsflash! Not everybody like dogs, being everywhere all the time. especially within ...
