This year’s smashing musical, the CHOC Follie's "Christina and the Crystal Ball - A Cinderella Story for the Social Net Set,” that’s raising funds for CHOC Children’s Hospital, will be running March 29-31 at the Robert B. Moore Theatre at Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa. The original musical fundraiser brings together more than 100 volunteers who sing and dance to make a direct impact on the lives of children. Proceeds from this year’s show will help bring The Voice - a Ryan Seacrest Foundation interactive broadcast multi-media center to the new CHOC patient tower.
You can join the cast and friends of the show at Port Restaurant and Bar in Corona del Mar on Tuesday at 6 p.m. for an evening of cocktails and cuisine.
Tickets cost $75 (includes $25 Port gift certificate) or $25 for Follie's cast members. The evening includes Crystal Ball martinis, Royal hors d'oeuvres and musical entertainment and prizes too!
Port Restaurant and Bar is at 440 Heliotrope Ave. in Corona Del Mar. For more information call 949.302.5878
