From "West Side Story" to "Company" to "Into the Woods," Sondheim left the world a better place than he found it and for that, The Space and a variety of Las Vegas entertainers honor him and his incomparable work with The Life of Stephen Sondheim on Thursday, May 12 at 8 p.m. (doors at 7 p.m.). A full lineup of performers for this celebration to be announced at a later date.
All tickets are $30 and are available online at
www.thespacelv.com. 100-percent of the proceeds will benefit The Actors Fund.
In April of 2020, The Space and Mondays Dark raised $120,000 for The Actors Fund during the height of the pandemic, and since the partnership between Mondays Dark and The Actors Fund began, more than 1 million dollars has been distributed to the entertainment community in Nevada. This upcoming concert is another opportunity for Vegas to support this amazing organization with a celebration of one of the greatest creators of our time.
