I am a big fan of GMCLA but with this performance, they outdid themselves. What a treat.Written on Dec 21 2009

This is our third or fourth time attending the Gay Men's Chorus. It was our least favorite. The other performances had more varied and rich and engaging music and songs. While this was a big production it was a bit boring.Written on Dec 22 2009

I think that the GMCLA is headed in the right direction. They are highlighting and expanding the mission of the group. And, more importantly, it does not compromising its artistic integrity: the choral work continues to improve. The inclusion of actors, dancers, exceptional lighting, costumes all enhance the the audience's experience. Past productions have tried to utilize "themes" but, by far, ths GMCLA outdid themselves this time. I and my guest left the concert with smiles on our faces and warm feelings in our hearts! Happy Holidays to everyone involved with the GMCLA -- you certainly added to my feelings of love, joy and wonder at this time of the year.Written on Dec 21 2009

This was unlike any of the shows we've seen the Chorus perform. It was almost like musical theater, because of all the acting and dancing in the storyline. It was an interesting choice of shows, one that they probably should do every few years. To have that much acting and dancing puts the focus on those performers and lessens the purpose of the chorus itself. Other than that, it was an enjoyable show.Written on Dec 21 2009

About the Ticket Supplier: Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles
Hailed by the LA Times as "one of the last important links to a glorious tradition in music," the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles has been a notable part of Southern California for over twenty-five years. Formed in 1979 as a completely volunteer effort of 99 gay men from every area of Los Angeles, GMCLA has grown in size, gained professional artistic and administrative staff, toured nationally and internationally, released eleven compact discs, and appeared with numerous stage, film, and television celebrities.
Among the many "firsts" of this dynamic arts organization, GMCLA became the first gay ensemble ever to perform for a sitting U.S. President; the first openly gay performers ever to be broadcast nationally over Russian television in 1999; the first gay U.S. Chorus to tour central Europe in 1991 (a documentary of this historic tour, entitled Out Loud has been seen by millions of PBS viewers); read the rest of our remarkable history below.
The Chorus performs year round at the national landmark Alex Theatre, and offers outreach concerts all year long to further the mission of building bridges between all communities by sharing our music.
