Friends and supporters of New Brunswick’s George Street
Playhouse will be donning costumes from legendary Broadway shows in a special
event, Sunday, October 27 at 5 pm. The
“Broadway Legends Fashion Show” will feature a number of local celebrities
sporting the extraordinary, eye-popping costumes from hit shows such as Evita, Hairspray, Mame, Man of La Mancha,
Camelot, Phantom of the Opera and others.
It’s costume cacophony as this
unique event marks a rare opportunity for audiences to see these costumes up
close and personal –all on the same stage!
In addition to the costumes on the runway, patrons attending the show have the
opportunity to purchase auction bids for evening bags promoting “a night on
the town,” decked out with theatre tickets, restaurant gift cards and hotel
stays – and one lucky winner will take home a diamond cocktail ring, valued at
$1500.
The Broadway Legends Fashion Show and the evening bag
raffle will take place Sunday, October 27 at The Heldrich, located on
Livingston Avenue, directly across the street from George Street Playhouse. Tickets for this benefit event are $100 for
adults, $50 for youth aged 11-17.
Tickets are available through the George Street Playhouse Box Office,
732-246-7717 or via the GSP website. All proceeds of the event will benefit George
Street Playhouse’s mainstage and educational programming.
