While Starlight Musical Theatre and its audiences are saying "Hello" to "Hello, Dolly!", currently running at Starlight as a previously announced final show of the season, they will in fact not be saying "Goodbye" once the show closes on September 5th. It has just been announced that a benefit concert, "Divas Do Broadway", will have a one night only performance on Saturday, September 11 to close out their 64th summer season.
Artistic Director, Carlos Mendoza, is gathering a number of Starlight alumni ladies to perform many of Broadway's favorite tunes in an evening of pure musical theatre bliss. Mr. Mendoza stated, "Starlight has been blessed to have tremendous talent on its stage, many with Broadway and national touring credits. We all love listening to Broadway hits and I thought a night of hearing our ‘divas' belt them out would be an even better way to close out the season. I know Starlight fans will enjoy seeing some of their favorites on stage doing what they do best."Ticket prices for the event are two-tiered, $45 for front and $25 for rear, in the 4,200 seat theatre. Marketing/PR Director, Ryan Fahey, stated that, "We wanted to keep prices within reason, especially in financial times like these. While many charge upwards of $100 or more for a benefit we wanted to ensure that our mission of bringing families together was still upheld. This is an event to hear amazing songs sung by amazing woman and at an amazing price. You simply can't beat it."Videos
