Dear friends of the Fund,

Welcome to a new year of special events that help support a life in the arts! This month you can join us for a romantic comedy with Delia Ephron’s Left on Tenth or a romantic tragedy with a vibrant production of Romeo + Juliet.

Thank you for your continued dedication, and we hope to see you soon.

Left on Tenth Producer's Picks

Based on Delia Ephron (You’ve Got Mail)’s best-selling memoir, Left on Tenth delves into the possibility of second chances in both love and life. Directed by five-time Tony Award winner Susan Stroman (The Producers), this Broadway premiere stars Julianna Margulies (The Good Wife) and Peter Gallagher (Grace and Frankie). In this warm and witty play, a surprising encounter blossoms into a poignant romance, showcasing the courage of two people ready to open their hearts to love again.
