Williamstown Theatre Festival has announced that two-time Tony winner Michael Cerveris (Fun Home) will join Jill Kargman, star and creator of Bravo’s hit comedy Odd Mom Out, to host a benefit musical evening on October 24. The event will take place at Kargman's home on the Upper East Side. All proceeds from the evening will support artistic programming and the Professional Training Program at WTF.
Kargman appeared at WTF this summer with her one-woman show Jill Kargman: Stairway to Cabaret. Michael Cerveris can currently be seen in his Tony-winning role in Broadway's Fun Home, which closes September 10.
Williamstown Theatre Festival, recipient of the Tony Award for Outstanding Regional Theatre, creates productions of both world premiere plays and revivals of some of the great works of the Western theatrical canon. In 2015, the Festival launched a New Play Commissioning Program as well as a community-immersive theater initiative, which unites professional theater artists with Berkshire residents to create new work.
