Chance Theatre Holds Chance Gala 2010, 9/18

The Chance Theater, Anaheim's award-winning professional theater company, has announced plans for Chance Gala 2010, a spectacular evening of dining, dancing and entertainment under the stars at Wellandia, an exclusive outdoor amphitheater in Anaheim Hills.

The Gala evening begins at 5:00 pm with a seated VIP dinner with Chance Company Members. At 6:30 pm, there will be an intimate open bar cocktail reception with hors d'oeuvres. At 7:30 pm, the Chance will present an exclusive showcase, featuring performances from Chance artists, which will culminate with the announcement of our 2011 Season. Following the performance, there will be dancing as well as a VIP after-party.

At the event, the Chance will be honoring one of our long-time arts patrons for their support of the Chance's mission of "producing high quality theater in an intimate space." An Orange County arts educator will also be recognized for unshakeable devotion to developing, supporting, and inspiring the next generation of artists that will emerge in the coming years.

The funds raised by this event directly support the Chance's many innovative, community-based education and outreach programs, as well as our goal of increasing the number of professional artist contracts during the 2011 Season.

Tickets to this exciting event start at $95; underwriting opportunities are also available. For more information, please contact Managing Director Casey Long at (714) 777-3033 or via e-mail at casey@chancetheater.com.
