We enjoyed the event and hope it's better organized next year. Kids would have liked more trick or treating. Kids were disappointed to miss opportunity to conduct, as we didn't hear names called for this. Kids were also disappointed in missing out on the costume contest on stage. Please have clear and specific instructions/directions for participation next year. Chicken strips and fries were very salty and not much chicken under the breading. I recommend the BBQ offerings over the hot dogs and chicken strips. Special star award and thank you to the face painter! Audience participation during the concert was fun. :)

It was a good first effort for the Symphony. Unfortunately the crowd in the General Admission section wanted to talk more than listen to the performance which was a nuisance. Additionally it became a very chilly evening. One of the nicest surprises was the free parking, quite unusual for The Greek.

Description

The Symphony In The Glen and Nederlander Concerts will summon goblins, ghouls and all things ghostly to The Greek Theatre in Los Angeles for a Halloween symphonic extravaganza for the whole family. The inaugural EEK! at The Greek features the 60-piece Symphony In The Glen orchestra with Maestro Arthur B.
