Country pop star Chris Young makes his way to The Woodlands in his Raised On Country Tour this weekend Saturday, September 7, 2019.
Recently the country music celebrity talked to our U.S. service men and women with a surprise visit to a naval base in San Diego. Young and tour sponsor USAA have prioritized visiting military bases and offering tickets to every service member who wants to see his show, which is exactly what he did in San Diego.
But his visit was about more than just promoting his tour. As Young told Task & Purpose, a digital news and culture publication dedicated to military and veterans issues, his family ties to the military (both his sister and brother-in-law served as Marines), along with friends who serve, have made personally saying "thank you" to U.S. service members "really, really important" to him, no matter where he travels.

Houston Pops Presents
Renee Elise Goldsberry
Jones Hall for the Performing Arts

Houston native Renee Elise Goldsberry makes her way to Jones Hall for the Performing Arts with the back drop of Houston's Symphony Pops this weekend.
It was on a stag
e that Renée’s career got its start, right here in Houston. “I was raised in Houston, and I always come home once or twice a year,” she proudly proclaimed. “I went to Duchesne Academy of the Sacred Heart and Spring Branch Middle School. I was baptized at Wheeler Avenue Baptist Church, and I’ve spent every New Year’s Eve and birthday in Houston for as long as I can remember.”
The Houston International Theater School (HITS) first set Renée on her theatrical path. “That’s where I fell in love with Broadway. When I was 8 years old, I was in Guys and Dolls, in the chorus in the back with a bunch of other kids,” she said. The same year, Houston Grand Opera came looking for child performers. “They needed a children’s company. They auditioned over at HITS, and my brother and I got to be the little urchin children in Carmen. We were the kids onstage eating oranges.”

This French ballet goes back to 1841 a romantic ballet in two acts. It was first performed by the Ballet du Théâtre de l'Académie Royale de Musique at the Salle Le Peletier in Paris with Italian ballerina Carlotta Grisi as Giselle.
This weekend through September 15th, 2019 Houston Ballet will present this romantic ballet at The Wortham on the Brown stage.
The ballet was an unqualified triumph for its time. Giselle became hugely popular and was staged across Europe, Russia, and the United States.
