Stars from Broadway’s Hamilton, Wicked, Aladdin, Shuffle Along, Leap of Faith, Newsies, Cinderella and Spring Awakening will perform for—and with—the homeless kids of Covenant House June 6th in a special fundraising event at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Hall in New York.
Self-described as the largest privately funded agency in the Americas helping homeless children, Covenant House is presenting A Night of Broadway Stars with producer Jim Kierstead ( Waitress) and director Jeff Calhoun ( Newsies). The cast is scheduled to include Adam Jacobs ( Aladdin), six-time Tony Award winner Audra McDonald ( Shuffle Along), Billy Porter ( Shuffle Along), Capathia Jenkins and Jeremy Jordan ( Newsies), Laura Osnes (The Bandstand), Stephanie J. Block ( Falsettos) and Rory O’Malley ( Hamilton), with Seth Rudetsky ( Disaster!) serving as emcee.
The event will also feature inspiring moments with the young people at Covenant House. Covenant House will also honor Chris and Kimberly Clarke of Pure Growth for their service to homeless youth. Composer-lyricist Neil Berg and his wife, actress Rita Harvey, will be presented with the Beacon of Hope Award for their years of dedication in bringing A Night of Broadway Stars to stages across the country in support of Covenant House.
