Kevin Cahoon, Megan Lawrence, Constantine Maroulis, Catherine Brunell and other stars performed in the Gotham Stage Company's (GSC) first annual benefit performance, A Night in Gotham, which took place on October 9th at the Lucille Lortel Theatre.
Veterans from both Broadway and Off-Broadway performed Gotham-inspired songs and scenes. Jason Eagan directed. Performers included: Maroulis, Cahoon (The Wedding Singer), Lawrence (Tony-nominee – The Pajama Game), Kevin Kern (The Wedding Singer), Brunell (Thoroughly Modern Millie), Zach Shaffer (The Man Who Came to Dinner, A View from the Bridge), Kimberly Stern (GSC's upcoming Becoming Adele), and Bridget Everett (Off-Broadway's At Least It's Pink), among others.
"Gotham Stage Company was formed in 2005 as a not-for-profit theater. Founded by Michael Barra, Peter Smith, Julia Haubner Smith, and Katie Dietz, GSC was created to allow the founders, and their contemporaries, the opportunity to gain and share experiences, hone their crafts, display their wares, and to produce and perform the types of work that they found lacking in the commercial theatre. Gotham Stage Company officially arrived in the Spring of 2006 with its world premiere production of Randall David Cook's Sake with the Haiku Geisha at The Perry Street Theater. Gotham Stage has since received international exposure and has grown to its current 14 members," state press notes.
