This was quite a memorable and inspirational event. The food and drink were tasty and the silent auction was a great idea. The best part had to be hearing the program participants in the audience cheering on their peers. They were gleeful and proud of their work, and the actors did a fine job performing for the audience.

Wonderful event!

Really entertaining benefit supporting a great cause. Pre-show reception has some great bites and good silent auction. Exciting to see fine actors performing. Only caveat, Angela Bassett was reduced to a cameo appearace. Would have like to have seen her in one of the scenes. Overall, excellent.
