Wolf Trap Announces 53 Summer Performances; Tickets Go On Sale 3/21

Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts today announced the first 53 Summer 2015 performances at the Filene Center at Wolf Trap National Park for the Performing Arts.

"These first Summer 2015 shows represent the spirit of Wolf Trap: quality, variety, accessibility and fun," said Arvind Manocha, president and CEO of Wolf Trap Foundation. "The spectrum of shows is wider than ever, with leading lights from around the globe. Where else can you go from the creators of SERIAL to Sarah Chang to Santana, under the stars at a National Park? We've got more to announce in April, and the summer's going to sound better than ever."

As America's only national park for the performing arts, Wolf Trap is deeply committed to diversity in programming, access points for music lovers of all kinds, and affordability, with ticket prices starting at just $10 for many performances. The 17-week summer season at the 7,028-seat Filene Center is made possible through a longstanding public-private partnership between Wolf Trap Foundation and the National Park Service.
