Pageant of the Masters 2018

I gave myself a treat for my birthday this year, and went down to Laguna Beach for the Pageant of the Masters, a yearly community artistic event where actors portray famous art in tableau.  It's fascinating to see one scene deconstructed, as they demonstrate the intricate process of the event. 

This year's theme centered on "Old Laguna" and took a historical trip up through time, showing how the area became one of the foremost art community in Southern California.  Photography is not allowed during the performance, but the venue itself is spectacular, so I thought I'd share a couple of shots.

I'll have to remind myself next year that food and drink is allowed to be brought in, though no glass containers are allowed in the theater.  Parking was quite reasonable if far away, with a free shuttle available from the lots.  There's a few weeks left in the season, so if you haven't yet caught it, go!
