A Day at the Opera - Carmen
Invalid Image LinkSold
Invalid Image Link
Brunch at the Loughrey's with our traditional opera breakfast with baked French toast, then on to our local cinema to see Carmen through Live at the Met. Acclaimed English director Carrie Cracknell brings a vital new production of one of opera’s most enduringly powerful works, reinvigorating the classic story with a staging that moves the action to the modern day and finds at the heart of the drama issues that could not be more relevant today: gendered violence, abusive labor structures, and the desire to break through societal boundaries. 6 0 000035.0 35 .0003E7 30 1/27/24 8:30 AM N N

The Great Divorce - A Play At Vanguard University, Costa Mesa
Invalid Image LinkInvalid Image Link
A play at Vanguard University, Costa Mesa, written by C.S. Lewis. This school has an excellent theater department, accredited by the National Association of Schools of Theater. This mesmerizing fantasy is suitable for teens and older. Ed Arnold, of public television has called Vanguard's Theater Department a "hidden entertainment treasure." The play, through Lewis' signature wit is about heaven, hell, and the choice between them, as the characters take a fantastical bus trip from hell to the outskirts of paradise (a metaphor for salvation?). Lewis says that the gates of hell are locked from the inside so those there choose it - self-choice? Perfect for UU's! There are a total of four tickets, located in the center of the theater, that can be purchased separately or together. 4 1 000080.0 80 .0006E7 60 2/24/24 7:30 PM N N
