This sounds like a great event. I'm especially impressed that Shoshana Bean will be there. Good for her! :)
Members of the Broadway cast of Wicked, including Eden Espinosa, Megan Hilty, and Carol Kane, will host Broadway Acoustic Soul, a benefit for Quilts for Kids that will be held at 7pm on Monday, May 15 at Central Presbyterian Church (593 Park Avenue). The event will include a live auction of autographed quilts that will be conducted by decorator Michael Maloney, a star of the hit TV show Extreme Makover: Home Edition.
Also scheduled to participate in the benefit are Broadway performers Shoshana Bean, Tituss Burgess, Ben Cameron, Rhett George, Donnie Kehr, Adriane Lenox, Krisha Marcano, Brandi Chavonne Massey, Greg Reuter, Daphne Rubin-Vega, Peter Matthew Smith, Eric LaJuan Summers, and Marty Thomas, plus the singing group The Broadway Boys and members of the cast of Altar Boyz.
Quilts for Kids was founded six years ago by Linda Aria, who had the idea to take discontinued fabrics and turn them into quilts for children who are battered and abused or have life-threatening illnesses. The organization now has 30 chapters around the world.
Tickets for the May 15 benefit are priced at $50 (students), $100 (concert only), and $150 (including pre-concert reception and gift bag). To order, call 215-295-5484.
