What it means to be alive.

It was just me and Diana.

Our boys, who we love with every fiber, were joyfully with her parents for the week. A rare and generous handoff. One of those quiet blessings where someone says, “Go.” So we did.

We flew out to California — to build dreams with Rob Bell, the author of We'll Get Back To You.

Big dreams. The kind that involve birthing his newest theatrical works right here at Prima (learn more here and here).

And in between soul-filled conversations, we found ourselves driving. Just us.

Two-lane road. Windows down. The pink moment in the Topatopa Mountains in Ojai.

No rush. No noise. No schedules to manage.

Just sky and silence and the playlist doing that thing where it lines up exactly with your soul.

Diana said something — something small and hilarious and perfect — and we both cracked up. The kind of laugh that holds more than the moment. It holds years. History. Us.

Then quiet. Not awkward. Sacred. Joy. Peace. The kind of quiet where your body exhales something deeper. Where time slows just enough to say: This is what it means to be alive.

And that’s not just a memory. That’s Prima. That’s what we’re here to do. To create experiences that dust off the spirit and uncover what it means to feel fully alive.

Because these moments — the music that gets into your soul, the stories and laughter that make life sing — they aren’t luxuries. They aren’t extra. They’re essential.

They’re how we reconnect. How we breathe again. How we remember who we are — and how much we need each other.

And that kind of magic? It doesn’t just happen. It takes people. People who don’t just want a ticket — they want in.

So, meet The Producer’s Circle.

Not a donor club. A doorway to the INSIDE TRACK and IMPACT. Individual Giving used to be called Prima Friends, and now it's a whole new, fresh thing.

Every laugh-until-you-cry moment, every candlelit concert, every line that lingers in your chest — exists because someone like you said: “I want to help bring this into the world.”

Now, fifteen years in, we’re just getting started. This anniversary season? It’s our most JOYFUL yet.

With your support we will offer:

  • More performances to welcome more people
