Carter Barron Amphitheatre

Fodor's Review:

On Saturday and Sunday nights from June to September this 3,750-seat outdoor theater hosts pop, jazz, gospel, and rhythm-and-blues artists such as Chick Corea and Nancy Wilson. The National Symphony Orchestra also performs here, and for two weeks the Shakespeare Theatre presents a free play.
