Pride Celebration Lineup:

Pride Live: Pride Anthems

Samueli Theater

Join us as we celebrate Pride Month with a journey through the past 50 years of Pride Anthems. From Donna Summer and Queen to George Michael, Erasure, Madonna, Lady Gaga and much more, these essential songs take us from disco to the present day. The story of the fight for LGBTQ+ equality is linked to this music, which evokes the struggles, heartache, and liberation of queer lives then and now. PRIDE ANTHEMS creates a vibrant musical experience that celebrates, inspires and commemorates the legacy and power of the Stonewall Riots, and takes you on a musical and cultural journey through the past 50 years to today. Starring, Natalie Joy Johnson, Kevin Smith Kirkwood, and Jon-Michael Reese, with Musical Director, Brian J. Nash, PRIDE ANTHEMS is a show for all ages to come together in song and celebration of where the LGBTQ+ community has come from and how far it has come since Stonewall!

PRIDE ANTHEMS is produced in partnership with Pride Live. A portion of the proceeds benefit Pride Live and the Stonewall National Monument Visitors Center (SNMVC) which will open in June 2024.

Dixie’s Tupperware Party

July 10 – 14, 2024

Samueli Theater

 

Written by Kris Andersson, this production is returning to Costa Mesa for 5 days of laughter and fun! Dixie Longate is the fast-talking, gum chewing, ginger-haired Alabama gal who is bringing your grandma’s Tupperware party into the 21st century. Audiences howl with laughter as Dixie demonstrates the many alternative uses for the iconic plastic kitchen staple. Filled with outrageously funny tales, heartfelt accounts, audience participation, and a little bit of empowerment and homespun wisdom, DIXIE’S TUPPERWARE PARTY leaves your heart a little bigger and your food a little fresher.

The last time Dixie made her mark in Costa Mesa, it was a sold-out engagement! Patrons should make sure to secure their tickets now so they don’t miss out on this wonderfully whimsical party.

Tickets for Dixie’s Tupperware Party start at $39 and are available online at scfta.org, in person at Segerstrom Center for the Arts Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive, Costa Mesa CA 92626, or by phone at (714) 556-2787. This show has ADULT CONTENT.
