On Tuesday morning, downtown L.A. is going Hollywood.
Mayor
The festivities begin Tuesday at 8 a.m., with the mayor’s ceremony slated to start at 8:30 a.m.
A jazz band will kick things off, followed by aerial dancers from Bandaloop performing a dance medley off the side of City Hall.
Director Damien Chazelle, composer Justin Hurwitz, production designers David Wasco and Sandy Reynolds-Wasco, choreographer Mandy Moore and jewelry designer Kyle Chan are all expected to attend.
If you were driving downtown this morning – say, if you were on your way to work at the L.A. Times building down the street – you might have caught them rehearsing.
From the sound of it, they’ll be dancing to “Another Day of Sun,” the opening song from the “La La Land” soundtrack.
