“The Pursuit of Happiness” will explore the many sources of happiness, both ancient and modern, through the theatrical performance of “living pictures.” The 2015 Pageant of the Masters will be a sentimental journey through depictions of pastimes and activities that gave people joy long before the instant gratification of the computer age.
“The Pursuit of Happiness’ promises to be a fun and entertaining show,” says Ticket Services Director Lucia McLeod. “’Buy tickets now when good seats are available at advance prices.”
The Pageant of the Masters, recently featured in The New York Times Magazine, is one of the most unique productions in the entire world. Audiences are amazed and enchanted by ninety minutes of tableaux vivants (“living pictures”), incredibly faithful re-creations of classical and contemporary works of art, with real people posing to look exactly like their counterparts in the original pieces.
Advance tickets are $15 – $230. A Pageant ticket also entitles you to free unlimited admission to the Festival of Arts grounds all summer long where you can enjoy original artwork by 140 of Southern Orange County’s finest artists, art classes, musical entertainment, special art events, dining at Gina’s Alfresco and so much more. Tickets may be purchased by calling 1-800-487-3378 or online at www.PageantTickets.com.
The Pageant of the Masters will be performed nightly from July 8 through August 31, 2015. The Festival of Arts is a non-profit organization that produces The Festival of Arts – California’s Premier Fine Art Show and the Pageant of the Masters. Proceeds support the arts in Orange County.
