The Stars of Broadway joined forces for a night of philanthropy, celebration, and joyful music!
Emmy Award Winning TV Host, John Oliver, hosted the cheerful and annual Only Make Believe Gala, along with Broadway Stars Andy Karl, Beth Leavel, Bonnie Milligan, Brad Oscar, Kathryn Allison, Montego Glover, Orfeh, Alica Quarles, Terry Theologides, and Collet Reyes, to bring awareness and gratitude to the charity organization.
The actors from the organization have always performed live in children’s hospitals, however, due to the pandemic, the Annual Gala and the in-person programming has been on a pause for two years. The talented performers have been dedicating their creativity and passion to create fun and interactive, virtual programming for children in hospitals, in order for the charity’s mission statement to continue to thrive, even in the most unprecedented times.
The festive night featured performances by the talented Tony Award Nominees and Recipients, as well as personal anecdotes from the organization’s committed leaders, about how much Only Make Believe has not only positively affected the children in the hospitals, but the actors as well. Post-performances, the VIP guests attended the after-party at John’s of Times Square, right next door to St. James Theatre, where the guests enjoyed bubbly, and a delicious buffet of Italian classics.
