Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel Partners with the Pageant of the Masters on Packages

At the Pageant of the Masters, audiences are enchanted by tableaux vivants (“living pictures”), incredibly faithful re-creations of classical and contemporary works of art, with real people posing to look exactly like their counterparts in the original pieces.

The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel is partnering with the Pageant of the Masters to present two extraordinary overnight experiences for the 2016 season. Both packages are available July 7 through August 31, 2016.

The Pageant of the Masters is arguably one of the most unique productions in the world. Audiences are amazed and enchanted by 90 minutes of tableaux vivants (“living pictures”), incredibly faithful re-creations of classical and contemporary works of art, with real people posing to look exactly like their counterparts in the original pieces. A live narrator guides patrons through the story of each living picture accompanied by a full orchestra. The Pageant of the Masters is produced by the Festival of Arts, a non-profit organization that also produces the Festival of Arts Fine Art Show. Proceeds support the arts in Orange County.

Ritz-Carlton’s Behind the Velvet Rope offers an exclusive opportunity for guests to see how this grand production comes together behind the curtain and offers a peek into the mystery of how art comes to life. The experience is available for Saturday night only and starts at $1,999 per couple.

The package includes:

  • The Ritz-Carlton Club Level Ocean View Accommodations
  • Behind the Scenes Tour of the Pageant of the Masters
  • Two Premier Loge Center tickets to the Pageant of the Masters performance
  • Admission for Two to Festival of Arts, one of the nation’s oldest and most highly acclaimed juried fine art shows
  • Private Docent Tour of Festival of Arts
  • Welcome Amenity and Pageant of the Masters Program

The Pageant of the Masters “Partners” experience starts at $849 per night and includes:

  • Overnight Accommodations
  • Two Premier Loge Center tickets to the Pageant of the Masters stage performance
  • Admission for Two to Festival of Arts, one of the nation’s oldest and most highly acclaimed juried fine art shows
  • Welcome Amenity and Pageant of the Masters Program

The history of art is filled with stories of solitary artists abandoning society to pursue their creative expression. The 2016 Pageant of the Masters sets out in search of stories of compelling collaborations that led to the creation of unforgettable artworks in this summer’s presentation of “Partners.” Filled with provocative and passionate tales of some of art’s dynamic duos – artists and patrons, models, muses, even dance partners, be sure to bring someone special with you, as “Partners” pulls back the curtain to reveal the significant others without whom the creation of great masterpieces might not have been possible.
