For the first time in many years, Biola University’s Music and Theatre Departments have joined together to produce an award-winning musical theatre classic, Camelot. The show will run Feb 6 – 15 at Crowell Hall in La Mirada. Camelot is the story of King Arthur and his marriage to Guenevere, played out amidst the pageantry of Camelot. It deals with love, honor, idealism, justice, jealousy, and the reality of human struggle. Camelot originally ran on Broadway for 873 performances, won four Tony Awards, three Golden Globe Awards, and was nominated for many more awards. It was the immediate successor to My Fair Lady, containing many of the same collaborators. Crowell Hall is located at 13800 Biola Ave, La Mirada, CA 90639, Lansing Hall (Crowell Hall, The Music Building). Click Here for tickets and more information.

The Passion of Anne Frank, a haunting, major, new oratorio based on the Diary of Anne Frank, with music and lyrics composed by 125 high school students from downtown Los Angeles’ Ramón C. Cortines School of Visual and Performing Arts, is being premiered by the students in conjunction with the Los Angeles Master Chorale Chamber Singers, professional instrumentalists, and student soloists on Thursday, Jan. 22 at noon and Friday, Jan 23 at 7:00 pm.
The unforgettable hour-long work with compelling arias and emotional choruses tells the poignant story of Anne Frank, a young Jewish girl whose now famous diary was written during the two years she spent in hiding with her family in German-occupied Holland during World War II. The performances are the culmination of the Los Angeles Master Chorale’s award-winning “Voices Within” artists-in-residence program, designed to foster collaboration among students as they create and perform their own original choral works. The concert is free, and seating is first come, first served but reservations are required. Cortines High School of Visual and Performing Arts is located at 450 N. Grand Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90012. Campus parking is free (enter on Cesar Chavez Avenue). Free on-site parking is available. Visit www.lamc.org for details.
