***THIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT, BUT PLEASE CHECK FOR OPENINGS DUE TO CANCELLATIONS***

Join us for STRGZR, an immersive musical journey directed by Dr. Michael Gould featuring the innovative talents of undergraduate and graduate Percussion Lab students. 

Audience members are invited to discover an evening where astronomy, history, and contemporary percussion intertwine. Each 30-minute concert will embark from the lobby of the Observatory and culminate beneath the dome—where, weather permitting, guests will have a chance to gaze at the stars themselves.

Presented by the School of Music, Theatre, and Dance in partnership with the Judy and Stanley Frankel Detroit Observatory.

• Show One: 8:00 pm
• Show Two: 8:30 pm 
• Show Three: 9:00 pm
