Join MBT as we celebrate Pride Month with a musical journey through the years with Pride Anthems!


 

The story of the fight for LGBTQ+ equality is linked to music, which evokes the struggles, heartache, and liberation of queer lives then and now. From Donna Summer and Queen to George Michael, Erasure, Madonna, Lady Gaga, and many more, these essential songs take us from disco to the present day.

Pride Anthems creates a vibrant musical experience that celebrates, inspires, and commemorates the legacy and power of the Stonewall Riots, and takes you on a musical and cultural journey through the past 50 years to today. With Brian J. Nash as Musical Director, and starring Natalie Joy Johnson, Kevin Smith Kirkwood, and Jon-Michael Reese, Pride Anthems is a show for all ages to come together in song and celebration of where the LGBTQ+ community has come from and how far it has come since Stonewall!

Just Announced:  John Cameron Mitchell will be joining the cast for part of the evening at the Mount Baker Theatre performance! Mitchell is perhaps best known for directing, starring in, and, in partnership with Stephen Trask, writing the 2001 film Hedwig and the Angry Inch. His work on the film earned him Best Director at the Sundance Festival and a nomination for a Golden Globe as Best Actor.

Pride Anthems is produced in partnership with Pride Live. A portion of the proceeds for Pride Anthems will be donated to Pride Live and the Stonewall National Monument Visitors Center (SNMVC) which is set to open in June 2024.
