The Gay Men’s Chorus of Los Angeles presents “It Gets Better” at 7:30 p.m. April 2, at the University of Hawaii at Hilo Performing Arts Center.

Written and directed by Speak Theater Arts’ Liesel Reinhart, “It Gets Better” is infused with the dynamic musical energy of the Gay Men’s Chorus of Los Angeles and the internationally recognized branding of the It Gets Better Project.

“The ‘It Gets Better’ company will be in residence for a week, working closely with our university community and public schools in a series of workshops, rehearsals and community dialogue,” said PAC manager Lee Dombroski. “They will present workshops and make video PSAs with students at Waiakea Intermediate School, Hilo high and intermediate schools and Connections Public Charter School, as well as hosting several events and workshops on the UH-Hilo campus.”

The UH-Hilo Kapili Choir and members of the Hilo Community Chorus were invited to join the company for its performance.

Tickets are reserved seating and pre-sale priced at $25 for general admission, $20 for discount and $10 for UH-Hilo and Hawaii Community College students with a valid student ID and children up to age 17. On the day of the show, tickets are an additional $5.
