The WSO is so special to our family. John Devlin is so extraordinarily talented & fun to watch perform & he along with the WSO team a blessing to our community. We love all things WSO & our favorites are the Symphony on Ice (SOI) & the Harry Potter (HP) performances. Our daughter has performed in the SOI for 6 years & spent her 13th birthday celebration at the HP performance. We are so grateful that we have so many special memories of the WSO to treasure & look forward to making more in the future.”
