7th Annual Evening Under the Stars with The North Carolina Symphony
Free Performance • Thursday, June 5, 2008
Roanoke Island Festival Park


The Outer Banks Visitors Bureau will once again welcome the North Carolina Symphony to Roanoke Island Festival Park in Manteo for a free performance for our residents and guests this summer. The 7th Annual Evening Under The Stars is scheduled for Thursday, June 5, 2008 and will feature not only the sophisticated and entertaining direction of resident conductor William Curry and the 68 member orchestra, but a pre-show of local talent presented by the Concert Chorale of the Outer Banks featuring The Forest Warren Chamber Singers and The Children’s Treble Choir of the Outer Banks. It is one way we like to say thank you to all who mean so much to our community and local tourism economy. You will be able to enjoy classical touchstones like Tchaikovsky’s opus from Swan Lake and John Williams’ Olympic Fanfare and Theme but contemporary pieces like Yoda’s Theme from movie The Empire Strikes Back. As always, blankets and portable chairs are welcome along with picnic baskets.

Gates open at 6:00 p.m. with the pre-show starting at 7:00 p.m. The North Carolina Symphony will take the stage at 8:00 p.m. Call the Outer Banks Visitors Bureau at (252) 473-2138 or Roanoke Island Festival Park at (252) 475-1500 for more information. The rain and inclement weather location will be Centennial Pavilion at Wright Brothers National Memorial in Kill Devil Hills.
