FREE Movie Mondays in Costa Mesa

The Segerstrom Center for the Performing Arts in Costa Mesa is doing its FREE Movie Mondays again this summer, and they’re kicking it off July 11 with Beach Blanket Bingo.

The movies start at 8 p.m. A selection of short films will also be shown.
You can bring your own picnics, but no barbecue equipment. You can also buy a meal from Patina Catering.
You can pay to park, look for the small amount of street parking available or park at the South Coast Plaza and walk over (which is frowned upon, I’m sure, by the South Coast Plaza people).
This summer’s movies include the following:

• Victor / Victoria
• 7/25/2011
• Led by an all-star cast including Julie Andrews, James Garner, Robert Preston and Leslie Ann Warren under the direction of Blake Edwards, and a score by Henry Mancini, this musical comedy of errors and mistaken identities will certainly tickle your funny bone – whether you are a man or a woman!
• 
  
• Chicago
• 8/1/2011
• The critical success and boffo box office of this stage-to-screen adaptation is credited with the rebirth of the American movie musical.
• 
  
• The King and I
• 8/8/2011
• With iconic performances by Yul Brunner, Deborah Kerr and Rita Moreno, the film version of Rodger & Hammerstein’s classic musical is every bit as classic!
