Gay Bells Ring: Are You Listening? - December 13-15, 2025
Join the Orlando Gay Chorus (OGC) for an unforgettable evening as the chorus celebrates 35 fabulous years of harmony and inclusivity with their special 35th Anniversary Holiday Concert, Gay Bells Ring - Are You Listening? This vibrant performance will warm your heart with a dazzling display of music, joy, and community spirit. Three chances to see these performances at the iconic Plaza Live on Saturday, December 13, 2025 at 7:30pm, Sunday, December 14, 2025 at 4:00pm and at the historic Ritz Theater in Sanford on Monday, December 15, 2025 at 7:30pm.
Join our gay bells, “Ding” and “Dong” and our trans bell, who will help us transition between songs on this campy, yet moving holiday adventure. OGC will enchant you with songs of yester-queer, such as “Winter Wonderland” and variations on “Jingle Bells,” peppered with holiday songs from our screens, such as selections from Frozen and Bob’s Burgers, songs to celebrate Hanukkah and Kwanzaa, and many more! OGC’s six small group ensembles will delight you with their holiday favorites. There will also be a fun parody of YMCA, that will have you dancing “N-O-E-L” as you leave the performance.
Did you know that OGC is the longest free-standing collection organization for the Toys for Tots drive? We will be collecting new unwrapped toys and financial donations for the Marines again this year at all our performances. If you have anything to spare, help a child in need this holiday season!
Come join OGC to celebrate the magic of music and the power of unity in this spectacular continuation of its milestone anniversary year. It’s going to be a night of unforgettable moments and holiday cheer that you won’t want to miss!
