Michael Feinstein Returns to The Pasadena Pops For 2018 Summer Concert Series

Principal Pops Conductor Michael Feinstein returns to the Los Angeles County Arboretum with stars of stage and screen for five concerts sure to make your summer sizzle. The 2018 Sierra Summer Concert Series commences June 23rd through September 8th with a jam-packed line-up of multiple award-winning guest artists including two-time Tony Award winner Christine Ebersole, Emmy winner Liz Callaway, Madam Secretary's Erich Bergen, cabaret star Ali McGregor, Downton Abbey's Julian Ovendon, Jersey Boys' John Lloyd Young and more.

Feinstein jumpstarts your summer on June 23rd with Liz Callaway and Aaron Lazar, both Merrily We Roll Along alumni, for That's Entertainment: Gershwin to Sondheim, followed by his return as a soloist with Summer of Love: Michael Feinstein Sings the Hits of the 60's on July 21st. As you know, it wasn't all Woodstock. The 60's were cool with the stylish stylings of the "Mad Men" era and more. From The Beach Boys to The Mamas and The Papas, to Sinatra, Andy Williams and more, Feinstein defines the sounds of the ultimate decade!

The highly-anticipated return of Classical Mystery Tour lights up the night sky on August 4th, performing your favorite hit songs for A Tribute to the Beatles, and Feinstein celebrates Leonard Bernstein's 100th birthday on August 18th with cabaret queen Ali McGregor and Downton Abbey's Julian Ovendon for Bernstein's New York. For the POPS' annual movie night on September 8th, Feinstein has curated a very special evening of hit shows that traveled from Broadway to Hollywood with Jersey Boys' Tony Award Winner John Lloyd Young and two-time Tony winner, Broadway legend Christine Ebersole for Broadway at the Movies.

All concerts are held at the Los Angeles County Arboretum and Botanic Garden. Grounds open for picnicking and dining at 5:30pm and performances begin at 7:30pm.
