San Diego Repertory Theatre and Hershey Felder Presents announced today the details of a one-time-only live streaming musical event to benefit San Diego REP, among other theatres. On Sunday, May 10, Mother's Day, at 5PM PDT, renowned performer Hershey Felder will present his one-man show, Hershey Felder as Irving Berlin, streamed live from Florence, Italy. Tickets are $50 per household and are available for purchase now at sdrep.org. Says Hershey Felder:
To present this event, we have recreated here in Florence, the set of Irving Berlin's home on Beekman Place in Manhattan, and we have a film crew that has been safe and in quarantine here in Florence. If you've seen the production some time ago, there is some new additional material that speaks to our times, as well as a few surprises. Because audiences always request the now infamous "audience encore," we have even made it possible for you to ask your questions by cellphone; text directly to me during the encore section, and I will answer live, just as I do in the theatre."
