The San Francisco Gay Men’s Chorus will usher in the holiday season with its acclaimed annual “Holiday Spectacular.”

Under the direction of Artistic Director and Conductor Jake Stensberg, the concerts will feature the voices of 270 singers, 21 costumed dancers, and a virtuosic nine-piece band. 

The program will feature such songs as “It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year,” “Silent Night,” “Slay Ride,” and a parody of Leroy Anderson’s “Sleigh Ride.” Audiences will also hear the premiere of “Snow, in San Francisco,” by Garrett Bond and a very special “Dolly Medley,” a holiday parody pastiche based on music by the late iconic singer/songwriter, Dolly Parton.

The two-act concert will also feature the Chorus’s small ensembles, the Homophonics (Mitch Galli, director) and the Lollipop Guild (Paul Saccone, director). Highly acclaimed Principal Accompanist and Music Supervisor Danny Sullivan will once again anchor the band.

The concerts will be performed from Dec. 4 to Dec. 24 at the Golden Gate Theatre, Chan Center, UC Berkeley, Zellerbach Hall, Sonoma State University, Weill Hall, and at the Castro Theatre.
