Tony Award-winner Beth Leavel, Joshua Dela Cruz, and Ali Ewoldt, will be featured in 20 & UNDER SING 20 & OVER: ACT II, a virtual benefit concert celebrating Broadway musicals, written at least 20 years ago, by having young rising stars (ages 20 and under) pair up with Broadway stars from the Broadway or touring company of each show they are singing from. All donations from this sequel event will benefit The Actors Fund.

17-year-old producer and music director, Jorden Amir says, "I'm beyond excited to be reprising 20 & UNDER SING 20 & OVER with a brand-new set of classic shows, and an incredible all-star cast. Act I got overwhelmingly great feedback, and I feel that it's important to continue to highlight Broadway's current and rising talent, it's history, and music that's loved by so many."

20 & UNDER SING 20 & OVER: ACT II will air via YouTube on May 22, 2021 at 8PM (ET). The concert is produced, and music directed by Jorden Amir.
