Putting on a show is not only an art, but in a sense, a science, too. It takes both talented performers and technical pros to pull off an excellent stage production. The International City Theatre has been doing just that in Long Beach since it began back in 1985. This award-winning, professional group is a non-profit entity that consistently delivers an appealing schedule of dramatic, comedic and musical entertainment throughout the year.
Amid the many places to see and things to do, the hustle and bustle of Long Beach is intoxicating and fun, but if you need a bit of a break, enjoy spending a little quiet time at the Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden. This inviting garden attraction was dedicated in April of 1981 through the generosity of Mrs. Loraine Miller Collins in memory of her husband, Earl Burns Miller. Maintained in association with California State University Long Beach, the garden attracts several visitors who marvel at its lush landscape and colorful flowers.
