Concert Held to Benefit Actor's Express 3/28-29

By:

Actor's Express presents a special benefit concert called Curtains Up Cabaret that will feature some of Atlanta's favorite performers.

Happening over two nights at the acclaimed troupe's West Midtown venue, Curtains Up Cabaret will feature such performers as Libby Whittemore, Jill Hames (Little Edie in the AE hit Grey Gardens) and Wendy Melkonian headline a lineup that includes actors, singers and musicians from the casts of such hit Actor's Express productions as Grey Gardens, Zanna Don't, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, The Last Five Years and The Great American Trailer Park Musical.

The songs performed will include numbers from those productions, as well as a few surprises.

Artistic Director Freddie Ashley says, "I am grateful to all these great performers who are pitching in to help Actor's Express right now. They've meant so much to Actor's Express fans over the years and it will be so fun to have them all under the same roof at the same time!"

Curtains Up Cabaret will be presented on March 28 and 29 at 7:30 p.m. The Monday night performance features a range of ticket prices, while the Tuesday night VIP performance will sell all seats at $100.
