Magnificent! Brilliant! Bravo! Just some of the accolades heard from the audience at the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles' masterful production, worthy of the Great White Way, of 'L'Amour' - music from the movies of Baz Luhrmann.

Familiar music takes on new meanings when sung by the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles, whether it's 'He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother' or Tchaikovsky's score for 'The Nutcracker.' Much the same thing happens in the films of Baz Luhrmann. In 'Strictly Ballroom,' 'Romeo + Juliet' and, most memorably, 'Moulin Rouge,' Luhrmann used pop and classical music to chart emotions, creating fresh, vibrant musicals from everyday songs.
