Turn the World Around - Live Concerts

May 2nd - 11th, 2025

Last season, our theme was "Radical Love," a concept that invited us to explore and express love in its many profound forms. We reflected on how our individual actions ripple outward, touching the lives of those around us, and how together, we can create a world where love and understanding are at the heart of all we do.

In this new chapter, we take that love and ask: What can we do with it? How can it ripple outward and inspire transformation in the world around us? "Turn the World Around" invites us to embody music as a force for change, joy, and connection. Through powerful songs and stories, we will celebrate the richness of our shared humanity and the countless ways we can ignite hope, foster understanding, and create positive change.

Join the Occidental Community Choir this Spring as we turn music into motion and passion into purpose.

General admission is $25. Kids 12 and under are $2. Be sure to get your tickets in advance so you don’t miss out! Online ticket sales close 4 hours before show time. If you’re too late to buy tickets online for the show you want, or if all online tickets for that show have been sold, we do set aside at least 20 tickets for purchase at the door.
