Five of the region's finest performers, Sandi Belcher, Diana Black, Daniel Burrows, Jeremy Douylliez-Willis, and Jennifer Kirkland, invite you to join them for "Songs from the Stage.” These stage veterans will present wide-ranging songs by some of Broadway’s best composers and lyricists, with accompaniment by Kemper McCauley. Net proceeds from this event will be administered by the Community Foundation for the Central Blue Ridge to promote greater access to summer enrichment programs for area high school performing arts students.
The event will be presented Friday and Saturday, January 27-28th, at Barren Ridge Vineyards in Fishersville. Doors open by 7:00 each evening and the show begins at 7:30. Benefit tickets are $35, and include light dessert refreshments and one complimentary glass of wine or cider from Barren Ridge Vineyards. Seating is limited and available only by advance purchase. Tickets are available at Community Foundation of the Central Blue Ridge - Songs from the Stage (networkforgood.com).
