August 7–24, 2008.
 Come to Damrosch Park for a Lincoln Center Out of Doors season jam-packed with free programs that offer something for absolutely everyone, from tributes to beloved cultural icons to cross-cultural collaborations that blur the lines of genre and geography.
This season is highlighted by a host of vibrant and eclectic musical experiences.
Catch the rhythmic fever of a funk-filled African tribute to the late Godfather of Soul, James Brown, when Still Black, Still Proud honors the “hardest-working man in show business.” Transcend 800 years of minimalism in a sublime triple bill presented in collaboration with Wordless Music.
And celebrate our rich musical heritage — from blues to bluegrass and New Orleans funk to punk — with the 25th Annual Roots of American Music Festival.
Dance lovers will enjoy Doug Elkins’ witty take on The Sound of Music, Fräulein Maria; and David Dorfman’s underground, a provocative look at political protest. Bring the family outside this August for a lively Out of Doors season that celebrates the performing arts at a price everyone can afford — absolutely free.
