San Diego Gay Men’s Chorus Opens with Olé! Olé! Olé! 4/14-15

The San Diego Gay Men's Chorus (SDGMC) will present Olé! Olé! Olé!, kicking off the chorus' 2012 season on Saturday, April 14th at 8pm and Sunday, April 15th at 3pm at the historic Balboa Theatre in downtown San Diego.  Following sold-out performances by gay men's choruses in Seattle, Houston and Minneapolis, the San Diego chorus production features show-stopping pop hits, classic cultural flair, and of course dance moves all set to a live eight-piece orchestra.

SDGMC Artistic Director Gary Holt said, "There is something in this spicy show for young and old alike – from the classic I Love Lucy 'Cuban Pete' scene to the thrilling 2008 Tony® award-winning In the Heights.  We've got some of the greatest chart-topping songs from Ricky Martin, Selena and Gloria Estefan, as well as classic Carlos Santana and campy Carmen Miranda.  And we're proud to feature well-known Spanish-language favorites like 'Granada', 'De Colores' and 'Spanish Eyes'.  You'll love our take on Broadway hits like 'Hernando's Hideaway' from 'Pajama Game', and our 14 handsome and sexy Latin dancers will leave you breathless.  The 120 singers are excited to be your 'Latin lover' for the evening and this is one fiesta you don't want to miss!"

Tickets for the Saturday evening performance are $25-$43; tickets for the Sunday matinee performance are $21-$38.  A $5 discount is available for seniors, students, military and groups of 10 or more.   The historic Balboa Theatre is located at 868 Fourth Avenue at E Street in downtown San Diego.  Three hours of free parking is available with validation at adjacent Horton Plaza.
