Boerne Weekend Picks: Theatre, Corvettes, and Music Underground (Sept 12–14, 2025)
This weekend, fall into the heart of Boerne with three distinct experiences: a witty backstage comedy, gleaming Corvettes, and a magical cave concert—crafted for connection, not repetition.
1. “Don’t Talk to the Actors” – Boerne Community Theatre
When: Friday–Sunday, September 12–14 (check theatre for exact showtimes)
Where: Boerne Community Theatre, 907 E. Blanco Rd, Boerne, TX 78006
The Experience:
Step backstage to an intricately comedic tangle of playwright dreams and actor chaos. This smart, sharply written play captures the absurdity behind curtain-call brilliance—with intimacy that elevates every line. You’ll feel as though you're whispering punchlines in the wings of a well-lived stage life.
Why It Matters:
Forty years in high tech gives you a sense for finely tuned systems—and the comedy of them unraveling. This show is that: an elegant exploration of where plans meet people, with enough charm to make that collision memorable.
Know More / Tickets: Visit Boerne Community Theatre or TheBoerneLife for showtimes and ticket links.
2. Texas Corvette Association Car Show – Boerne
When: Saturday, September 13, gates open 10:30 AM (Cars start arriving during the “Cruisin’ Out of Summer”)
Where: Downtown Boerne (Main Plaza and adjacent streets), plus local cruise route & scenic Hill Country drive afterward
The Experience:
Chrome, curves, and engine rumble—this is not your parking-lot fair. Corvettes of every vintage roll into town, shining in the sun. Food trucks, music, door prizes, and a silent auction roll the weekend into a classic car-lover’s paradise. On Sunday, join the scenic drive through hill-country, ending with a hearty lunch at YO Ranch Hotel.
Why It Matters:
Elegance on wheels, awe in the open air—and people coming together over craftsmanship without code or algorithm. It’s a restorative balance to the digital world, filled with horsepower and human warmth.
Details: Gates open at 10:30 AM. Registration for vehicles; spectator entry is free. Post-show cruise and lunch details available via Texas Corvette Association site.
3. Fall Equinox Cave Concert – Cave Without a Name
When: Friday, September 12 (date aligns with fall equinox window)
Where: Cave Without a Name, near Boerne (check for time)
The Experience:
Descend into crystalline acoustics and softly lit chambers for music that resonates off stone. The “Fall Equinox Cave Concert” offers an under-earth sanctuary for song—where nature’s architecture envelopes the melody with magic.
Why It Matters:
After decades in hi tech, you know surroundings shape experience. This setting—ancient stone, natural reverb—gives sound new texture, inviting deeper listening and soulful pause. It’s Emerson meeting ear bud, outdoors-in but profoundly contained.
