On March 8, International Women’s Day, our OC LIVE event will feature speakers sharing successful tools for navigating work in unequal environments. This event will also discuss the gifts and abilities that both women and men bring to create more equal, effective, and successful workplaces. |

Opening Night: The Improvised Musical! |
||
|
Thursday, April 5 |
OPENING NIGHT: THE IMPROVISED MUSICAL! is exactly that - a Broadway- style musical that is made up on the spot, based on audience suggestion. Therefore, every night is the `Opening Night’ of a musical that has never been seen! Sadly, it is also the closing night, but closing night sounds so very final. Every show, whether a mind- numbing rock opera or a tap-dancing Phantom-filled fiesta, is a completely unique experience! |
