Apollo Chamber Players Presents “We The People, Concert Three: Diversity”

In concert with the Persian New Year of Nowruz Apollo celebrates the multicultural beauty of Houston the most ethnically diverse city in America. We also reflect on the rarity of a country born with freedom of speech and religion - and diversity of thought - as an integral part of its democratic DNA. Will America ever realize the promise of a truly pluralistic society living in harmony?
