The Town Hall
Join us for a one-night-only gala concert celebrating our pal, the legendary Broadway impresario Harold Prince. Hal’s fearless creativity effectively created the American theater scene we know today. Hal’s risk-taking was rewarded with a record-breaking 21 Tony Awards, and his artistic impact is unparalleled. On this special evening, we remember our pal through his groundbreaking musicals and celebrate his legacy as a friend and collaborator – a leader who lifted up young artists and new endeavors. Hal and his wife Judy were two of Irish Rep’s earliest champions, helping us to become the company we are today, and Hal went on to serve on our Board for more than 30 years.
A star-studded cast of Irish Rep company members and Broadway singers will perform selections from Hal’s legendary oeuvre, which includes The Pajama Game, Damn Yankees, Fiddler on the Roof, West Side Story, Merrily We Roll Along, Cabaret, Company, Follies, A Little Night Music, Sweeney Todd, The Phantom of the Opera, Evita and more.
Past performers in recent Irish Rep galas include Tom Hanks, Angela Lansbury, Melissa Errico, Jeremy Irons, Judy Collins, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Max Von Essen, Michael Cerveris, Jeremy Jordon, Donna Kane, and more. We can’t wait to announce this year’s guests!
The special evening will honor Loretta Brennan Glucksman, who will receive Irish Repertory Theatre’s Visionary Leadership Award in recognition of her philanthropic support of Irish communities and her tireless work in promoting Irish culture and heritage in the US and around the world.
Further event details and performer information will be announced as the event approaches.
