Featuring the last of the great romantic trios Los Tres Reyes and with a special performance by GRAMMY® Award winner Rosalie Rodriguez, this romantic evening celebrates bolero music from Latin America. Evoking the bohemian spirit of LA, this magical summer evening under the stars will be filled with nostalgia and love.

In October of 1998, Matthew Shepard, a young gay student at the University of Wyoming in Laramie was kidnapped, severely beaten, tied to a fence and left to die in a lonely field under a blanket of stars. Five days later, when Matt passed away, the world was watching. Approaching the eve of the 20th anniversary, acclaimed GRAMMY®-winning conductor Craig Hella Johnson has created a musical response to Shepard’s tragic and untimely death that seeks to both celebrate his life and explore how we can transcend tragedy as a means to discover our common humanity. Led on the piano by Johnson, this choral drama features the full 30-member GRAMMY®-winning Conspirare choir, a small instrumental ensemble and projected imagery. Taking place as part of the City of West Hollywood and WeHo Arts' One City One Pride commemoration of this important anniversary.

For this joyous evening of dance, the Ford Theatres brings together three renowned choreographers - Kyle Abraham, Rennie Harris and David Roussève - to set works on one of LA’s most beloved contemporary dance companies, Lula Washington Dance Theatre. The evening will also include choreographies by the esteemed LulaWashington and Tamica Washington-Miller. 

Why do we often know what we need to do but still don't do it. A personal look into searching for that missing element in all our lives.
