Dear Actors Fund Friends,

We're excited to bring you new ways to take in some holiday cheer this season. If you're in New York City, we'd love for you to try our new favorite sweet treat. Or you can get cozy and watch some stars from TV, film and stage share their stories.

Whatever you choose, thank you for continuing to support a life in the arts, and we look forward to seeing you soon.

Crossovers Live!
Monday, December 20, 8 pm ET/5 pm PT

Stellar

Celebrate the season as Audra McDonald and Ariana DeBose join Crossovers Live! host Brian Stokes Mitchell for a night of unheard stories and unmatched holiday cheer!

McDonald is a Julliard-trained soprano who has won more Tony Awards for acting than any other performer. While her musical bona fides are undeniable, her prowess on stage and screen have made her a multi-hyphenate “to rule them all.”

From her debut as a contestant on So You Think You Can Dance, the Emmy-nominated DeBose has dazzled on stage in Hamilton, A Bronx Tale, additional major Broadway productions, as well as film and television. She also stars as Anita in Steven Spielberg's upcoming West Side Story!

Ten percent of ticket proceeds from Crossovers Live! will benefit The Actors Fund.

The show is produced by Henry Ravelo.

A portion of the proceeds from ticket sales will benefit The Actors Fund. All guests are required to show proof of COVID vaccination, and the staff of The Green Room 42 is required to be masked and fully vaccinated.
