    135 N. Grand Avenue Los Angeles, CA 90012 musiccenter.org Important Message: Music Center Closes Theatres Dear Music Center Patron, Supporter and Guest: Your safety, health and wellbeing are our number one priority. Amidst rising concerns regarding the COVID-19 global outbreak, Governor Newsom’s strong recommendation that all gatherings of 250 or more people across the entire state be cancelled, and the County of Los Angeles’ order that The Music Center close its theatres (Ahmanson Theatre, Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Mark Taper Forum and Walt Disney Concert Hall), The Music Center closed its theatres, effective today, March 12, 2020. The Music Center’s resident companies (LA Phil, LA Opera, Center Theatre Group and the Los Angeles Master Chorale), along with TMC Arts/Glorya Kaufman Presents Dance at The Music Center, are also cancelling all presentations, public gatherings, education programs and tours through at least March 31, 2020. While we regret this unfortunate circumstance, The Music Center must put the safety and health of its patrons, artists, staff, visitors and supporters before anything else. If you have ticket(s) to a presentation/event March 12 - March 31, please direct all questions to the respective box offices: • For TMC Arts/Glorya Kaufman Presents Dance at The Music Center • For Center Theatre Group • For LA Opera • For LA Phil • For Los Angeles Master Chorale • For REDCAT As both an artistic and civic leader, it is our sincere commitment to ensure you can continue to engage with The Music Center’s cultural experience in ways that are both meaningful and safe.
