They’re dancing again and watching iconic feature films on the Julianne and George Argyros Plaza at Segerstrom Center for the Arts. Government-mandated COVID-19 guidelines have been loosened and the Center is again presenting its popular Saturday Wellness Classes featuring African Dance taught by Dr. Jewel, Tuesday Night Dance Classes with Broadway, film and television extraordinaire Lauren Lim Jackson, and Movie Nights, with Hidden Figures (March 5), The LEGO Movie (March 6), Roman Holiday (March 12) and Hello, Dolly! (March 13).
Tickets can be purchased online at https://www.scfta.org/Events/Plaza-Events or by phone at (714) 556-2787 from 10 am to 2 pm.
Wellness Classes
There’s no better place to get physical than the Center’s Julianne and George Argyros Plaza. Dr. Jewel and African Soul International blend tradition, culture, history, and music with these fun and vigorous dance workouts.
Saturdays: February 20 and 27 from 11 am to noon.
Tickets: $10 per person and just 28 spaces are available.
Tuesday Night Dance Classes
Broadway’s Lauren Lim Jackson will teach iconic moves seen on the Great White Way in such hit shows as Chicago, Memphis, Motown, and Pretty Woman. Jackson, who hails from Orange County, credits include Finian’s Rainbow, Wonderland, Memphis, Motown the Music, and Pretty Woman the Musical (coming to the Center in the 2020-21 Broadway Season!). No experience necessary – the Argyros Plaza is strictly a no-judgment zone!
Tuesdays: March 9, 16, 23, and 30 from 6:30 – 7:30 p.m.
Tickets: $10 per person, 25 spaces available.
