Dear friends of the Fund,

Add to the magic of the season by experiencing Cirque du Soleil’s KOOZA! Plus, watch Broadway dreams become a reality for podcaster and internet star Trisha Paytas, who’s showing her support for the community by donating all net proceeds to the Fund.

Thank you for your continued support, and we hope to see you soon.

Cirque du Soleil: KOOZA
Now–January 5, 2025

Under the Big Top
1550 Pacific Coast Highway
Santa Monica, CA 90401

KOOZA is a return to the origins of Cirque du Soleil. It combines two circus traditions: acrobatic performance and the art of clowning. The show highlights the physical demands of human performance in all its splendor and fragility, presented in a colorful mélange that emphasizes bold slapstick humor.

The Fund would like to thank the team at KOOZA for putting a smile on our faces, not only with their performances but also with their support. You’ll be smiling too when you save up to 25% off select seats and dates, knowing that $3 of your ticket purchase will be donated to the Fund. For VIP Packages and Groups of 10+ contact [email protected] for details and added savings.
