We are doing a very cool event called
Born for Broadway this month in NYC. It is a one-night musical event benefiting the Foundation. It is Monday, June
22nd at 8:00 p.m. at New World Stages, 340 West 50th Street, NYC. Directed by
Marcia Milgrom Dodge, (just back from directing "Ragtime" at the Kennedy Center
in DC) with musical direction by Larry Yurman ("Grey Gardens")
, featuring both established
Broadway performers as well as undiscovered talent, and will be hosted by actor and
comedian, Richard Kind.
Born for Broadway first began as a student-sponsored musical revue
at Marymount Manhattan College, where event founder, Sarah Galli, was enrolled
as a performance major. Galli founded the event as a way to combine her two
passions; her love for theatre (a community equally beloved by Christopher and
Dana Reeve) and her desire to raise funds for spinal cord research. Galli's
brother was spinal cord injured 11 years ago and is now a high level
quadriplegic.
