Raul Esparza to perform at Westport Playhouse Gala

I read this on Raul's myspace. Nothing on his website yet though - although that hasn't been updated since May.

Here's the info.....

Angela Landsbury, Bernadette Peters, Laura Benanti, Raul Esparza and Steven Pasquale will be featured at the Sept. 15 annual gala benefit at the Westport Playhouse. Julia Roberts will host the fundraising event, which will include a tribute to Angela Landsbury. Benefit tickets are $2000. A limited number of performance only tickets are still available at $600. Please contact the Westport PLayhouse box office at 203.227.4177 or westportplayhouse.org.

It'd be cool if they could spell "Lansbury" right.

Wish the ticket price was even remotely do-able.

"Raúl knows nothing about it and has no connection to it."

How do you know what sites he knows about and which ones he doesn't?

I found the "he knows nothing about it" line a little extreme. Having no official connection to the page doesn't mean he doesn't go and check it out once and awhile, just to see what his fans are saying.
