Map

Thursday, July 31 7pm - Antony & Cleopatra

Enter the park through the main gate on Grandview. It will be straight in front of you (note: the main gate says "Miradero".  Don't let this fool you.  Miradero was the formal name that Mr. Brand called his property before he deeded it to the city). Follow the road straight through the park.  Pass the first/lower parking lot on the left.  Continue on through the park past the Brand Library at the top of the drive way (huge white mansion).  At this point keep your eyes peeled for the Dr.'s House – it's blue.  There should be plenty of parking in both the upper and lower parking lots.
