Tickets for the much-anticipated 2014 Pageant of the Masters are on sale now and make the perfect holiday gift for the art lover on your list. This holiday season share the excitement and mystery of the Pageant with tickets to this summer’s production The Art Detective.
In 2014, the Pageant of the Masters is on the case with The Art Detective– revealing how lost treasures were discovered, where crimes of passion were uncovered (or covered up) and how creative riddles were unraveled, with a gallery of the world’s great masterpieces providing the clues. A live narrator serves as a guide through the story of each living picture accompanied by the music of a professional orchestra.
“Great seats are still available, but do tend to sell out,” says Ticket Services Director Lucia McLeod. “Order early to make sure you don’t miss out on The Art Detective!”
The Pageant of the Masters is arguably 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.
Tickets start at just $15. 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 9 through August 30, 2014. 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.
