Photo Flash: Coronado Playhouse's CARNIVAL!, Running 6/28-8/4
The Coronado Playhouse, the community's theatre, has launched an effort to help one of San Diego County's most established non-profit organizations, Ronald McDonald House Charities of San Diego. Founded in 1980, the local Ronald McDonald House provides a "home away from home" to families with children being treated at area hospitals for serious, often life-threatening conditions. Nearly 20,000 guests a year receive housing, meals and other crucial care and services while dealing with health crises.
This summer, the Coronado Playhouse is producing the classic musical, "CARNIVAL!" It's a timeless story about a young orphan girl named Lili who runs away to join a circus traveling the European countryside. Audiences will be thrilled by the music, magic and mystery that unfolds on stage with elaborate puppetry and an eclectic cast of characters. During the run of the production June 28th-August 4th, CPH has launched a new clothing drive to benefit families staying at San Diego's Ronald McDonald House. Because many of the hospitalized children have compromised immune systems, only new clothing or financial donations to pay for clothing can be accepted. There is a particular need for socks, underwear, sweats and t-shirts. Along with children's sizes, clothing in all adult sizes is also appreciated.
To learn more about special group rates and ticket discounts, contact the box office at 619-435-4856. There are several event opportunities that include Opening Night Dinner & Show, Carnival Happy Hour and a private LGBT OUT Night reception performance July 11th. Find details at our website, www.coronadoplayhouse.com. Also, join us as some of the CARNIVAL! cast members and families from the Ronald McDonald House march in this year's Coronado Independence Day Parade July 4th.
