New York, NY (September 19, 2024) – The Entertainment Community Fund (formerly The Actors Fund) announced today that Hell’s Kitchen, Cabaret and The Lion King will host performances with tickets dedicated to supporting the Fund.
Hell’s Kitchen and Cabaret will have Producer’s Picks performances, where a block of tickets are donated by the producers of each show so ticket buyers’ entire purchase goes to support the Entertainment Community Fund’s programs and services. The Lion King has added a Special Performance to their schedule; and what makes this show so “special”? Broadway companies generously give their time and talent by adding a ninth performance to already rigorous schedules to benefit the Entertainment Community Fund. As the industry continues to recover post-pandemic, Broadway shows are generously demonstrating their commitment to the Fund and giving back to the performing arts community with these Producer’s Picks and Special Performances.
For more information on upcoming performances and to purchase tickets supporting the Entertainment Community Fund, please visit entertainmentcommunity.org/Events.
