Then, Houston Public Media’s Ernie Manouse previews the upcoming season in Houston’s Theater District, which held its annual open house over the weekend.

Also this hour: Jackson Neal, Houston's youth poet laureate, talks about his accomplishments and his role producing a new literary podcast. Plus, the new documentary Aquarela tells the story of water's dangerous power around the world.
