On Stage: ‘Holiday Spectacular’ by San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus – Stark Insider
Organizers have announced San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus Holiday Spectacular will open December 2, 2022.
The annual tradition will be held on five dates at four venues across the Bay Area including San Francisco’s Sydney Goldstein Theater, Berkeley’s Freight & Salvage, Rohnert’s Park Green Music Center and San Francisco’s Castro Theatre (for the first time in three years!).
“The holiday season has always been an important and special time for SFGMC,” said San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus CEO Chris Verdugo. “As we continue to re-emerge from the last two years, we are incredibly grateful for the continued support of our community and the opportunity to spread joy, love, and gratitude throughout the Bay Area this holiday season.”
We’re told to expect fabulous costumes, thrilling dancing, holiday favorites such as “Jingle Bells” and “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” in addition to classical choral works such as “Sure on this Shining Night.”
And… a holiday-themed Cher medley.
