FREE, HYBRID EVENT: “**[BELLA GAIA](http://www.bellagaia.com/)** and **[Earth Harp](https://www.williamearthharp.com/)** are planning an epic spectacle concert for Miller Outdoor Theatre’s 100th year anniversary in 2023.

“This premiere collaboration between two long- running stage performances dedicated to giving a voice for planet Earth, will bring audiences a new level of inspiration and connection with the sights and sounds of Earth. Kenji Williams (Bella Gaia founder), and William Close (Earth Harp founder), will be designing an integrated performance that brings together the magic of both shows into one.

“The spectacular sounds of the Earth harp lend itself beautifully with the sweeping sound scapes and visual story of BELLA GAIA.! For the scale of Miller Outdoor Theatre, William and Kenji are planning to have TWO Earth Harp’s (one pictured above), on both sides of the stage, creating a frame on the left and right of the center screen that is the main experience of the projected visuals of BELLA GAIA.”

**WHERE TO MEET**: We will meet at 6 p.m. by the picnic tables by the concession stand. Then go to the hill and set up. If you can’t make it at 6 p.m., we’ll hold some space. Look for our location in the comments. The play begins at 7 p.m.

The hill is divided with the left side allowing chairs and the right reserved for blankets. **We sit on the chair side**, but close enough to the middle to accommodate blankets.

**NOTE**: Miller has added a pre-show event called “Steampunk Spectacular” beginning at 5:30 p.m.

“Come dressed in your best Steampunk attire and immerse yourself in this unique subculture. The Steampunk Extravaganza is the perfect way to kick off an unforgettable evening of music and art at Miller Outdoor Theatre. Don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind experience!”

**WHAT TO BRING:** Chair or blanket, drinks and snacks. **Blankets may have the view obstructed by chairs.** Adult beverages are allowed but the city prohibits glass containers in the park. (We don’t check.) It’s always more fun when people bring snacks to share.
