Dear friends of the Fund, Whatever you choose, thanks for your continued support, and we hope to see you soon.
Death of a Salesman Producer’s Picks Hudson Theatre Give the gift of live theater for the holidays while supporting a life in the arts! Producer’s Picks tickets are donated by the producers so your entire ticket purchase goes to support the Entertainment Community Fund’s programs and services. Olivier Award nominee Wendell Pierce and 2022 Tony nominee Sharon D Clarke reprise their roles as Willy and Linda Loman in a revival—told for the first time on Broadway—from the perspective of an African American family. A new cast of supporting actors join the production in New York, led by Tony winner André De Shields and Khris Davis. This powerful interpretation of Arthur Miller’s classic drama illuminates the dark underbelly of the American Dream and its elusive promise of equality and opportunity for all.
Funny Girl Producer’s Picks August Wilson Theatre This bittersweet comedy is the story of the indomitable Fanny Brice, a girl from the Lower East Side who dreamed of a life on the stage. Everyone told her she'd never be a star, but then something funny happened—she became one of the most beloved performers in history, shining brighter than the brightest lights of Broadway. Starring Lea Michele and featuring some of the most iconic songs in theatre history including “Don’t Rain On My Parade,” “I’m the Greatest Star” and “People,” Michael Mayer’s bold new production marks the first time Funny Girl has returned to Broadway since its debut 58 years ago.
Leopoldstadt Producer’s Picks Longacre Theatre Set in Vienna, Leopoldstadt takes its title from the Jewish quarter. This passionate drama of love and endurance begins in the last days of 1899 and follows one extended family deep into the heart of the 20th Century. Full of his customary wit and beauty, Tom Stoppard’s latest work spans fifty years of time over two hours. With a cast of 38 and direction by Patrick Marber, Leopoldstadt must not be missed.
Murder, She Wrote Production Made Painting Here’s your chance to own a piece of Hollywood history via Heritage Auctions! Bid now on this framed painting of Angela Lansbury as “Jessica Fletcher”, which was created for the 1997 TV movie Murder, She Wrote: South By Southwest by Jaroslav Gebr (who also signed the back of the painting). A special thank you to the current owner of the painting, Zac Bissonnette, who is donating 100% of the proceeds to the Entertainment Community Fund in celebration of the recent release of his Hollywood-themed mystery novel A Killing In Costumes published by Crooked Lane Books. We also want to thank Heritage Auctions for generously waiving their fees so that 100% of the hammer price will benefit the Fund.
