The Garden Theatre is excited to be celebrating our 5th season! In honor of our anniversary, the first half of this monumental season will consist audience favorites from previous seasons. From our third season, we are thrilled to bring back a show BroadwayWorld called "phenomenal" and "fabulous." Join us for a little Texas history in the return of Ann by Holland Taylor.

Ann is a no-holds-barred portrait of Ann Richards, the legendary governor of Texas. This inspiring and hilarious play brings us face to face with a complex, colorful and captivating character bigger than the state from which she hailed. Written by Emmy Award winner Holland Taylor, Ann takes a revealing look at the impassioned woman who enriched the lives of her followers, friends and family.

After playing throughout Texas to sold-out audiences, Ann went on to win critical acclaim in Chicago, at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC, and on Broadway at Lincoln Center’s Vivian Beaumont Theater. The Garden Theatre is honored to welcome back Nora Hahn in her critically acclaimed, star making performance as Ann Richards. Ms. Hahn has been seen on stages across Houston such as The Garden Theatre, Stageworks, Theatre Southwest, and Country Playhouse. Most recently, Ms. Hahn was seen onstage as Sister Aloysius in Doubt, A Parable, Ma Ferguson, in The Garden Theatre's production of Bonnie & Clyde, and as Clairee Belcher in The Garden Theatre's production of Steel Magnolias.
