Kick off your holiday season with members of the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus at the beautiful Lesher Center for the Arts!
Known for its warm, rich choral tones and over-the-top productions, the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus continues its tradition of bringing holiday cheer to the East Bay with its December 3rd show in Walnut Creek. The show features all four vocal ensembles of the Chorus: The Lollipop Guild, Vocal Minority, SWAG and HomoPhonics.
Expect plenty of upbeat, show-stopping numbers, stunningly beautiful choral pieces, and updated, modern takes on old favorites – all done with SFGMC’s trademark humor and flair. Think “A Chorus Line” meets “The Nutcracker,” Pentatonix and Mariah Carey, crossing genre and dishing up a delightful program of gorgeous holiday music.
Running Time: approx. 90 minutes, without an intermission
For nearly 40 years, the San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus has courageously served as the international standard bearer for a powerful and accomplished mix of high-caliber performance, human rights, community activism, empowerment and inclusiveness, establishing it as an icon among LGBT organizations. Founded in 1978, it was the first organization of its kind and is credited with starting the LGBT choral movement, galvanizing and changing the course of LGBT history. It continues to rally and inspire other arts-based community organizations around the world, with its signature blend of humor, personality and high-voltage performances.
