Tyler's Suite, a retelling of the life and tragic loss of music student Tyler Clementi, offers a message of hope and dignity for all LGBT youth who have suffered bullying and harassment because of who they are. Members of the Clementi family will speak prior to the May 7 and 9 performances, including Tyler's mother and brother.
The concert will include uplifting music from our singers including Glee's "You Have More Friends Than You Know" and the Miley Cyrus hit "Wrecking Ball".
We will present two concerts: Saturday, May 9 at 7 p.m., The North Chapel at Liberty Station; and Sunday, May 17 at 3 p.m., St. James by-the-Sea in La Jolla. Tickets are $20 and may be purchased at www.sdgmc.org or (619) 432-2244.
