The Evening: Cocktail reception, live and silent auctions, gourmet seated dinner followed by the show: Stars of Broadway and musical theater perform vignettes of song and dance; dessert, cocktails and dancing to the sounds of Dallas Unlimited at the Curtain Call Cabaret late night party.
The Stars: The lineup includes such luminaries as Mitzi Gaynor, David Cassidy, Tom Wopat, Ben Vereen, Cathy Rigby, and a special finale by Sutton Foster, who, among her many roles, currently plays Princess Fiona in SHREK, THE MUSICAL.
