Dear friends of the Fund,

We can’t wait for this summer’s Special Performance of The Music Man to benefit our programs and services—and the first to be announced for the Entertainment Community Fund under our new name! What makes a Special Performance so "special"? Broadway companies in New York and on the road generously give their time and talent by adding a performance to already rigorous schedules, with all ticket sales benefiting the Entertainment Community Fund. If your summer plans include a trip to New York City, we hope you’ll join us at these spectacular upcoming events!

Thank you for your support, and we look forward to seeing you soon.
