Bring the family.
All ages will be delighted to see the classic Disney movie come to life in The Little Mermaid Jr. (Nov. 20–21). This admission-free program is presented in association with the Rancho Mirage Library and Observatory Foundation and underwritten by the generous support of the Brooke Foundation.
Get in the spirit.
Few remain unaffected by Scrooge’s powerful story as depicted in Charles Dickens’ classic A Christmas Carol (Dec. 11–12). Take in this exquisite tale on a dark winter evening and find your own spirit of Christmas. Everyone is invited to enjoy this production as a complimentary gift from the City of Rancho Mirage.
