10/04/2010 - By New York, NY

Broadway in South Africa's 3rd Annual Benefit Gala

Grammy Award winners Desmond Child and Julie Gold joined New York songwriters in creating world-premier works to be performed by Broadway stars at its third annual benefit concert.

The event was held to celebrate, and raise awareness and funding for Broadway in South Africa. This year’s honoree is producer Michael Butler, one of the most successful theatrical producers, lauded for bringing HAIR to Broadway in 1968, and an active proponent of youth creating positive global social change.

Some performances were by Tony Award winner Alice Ripley (Next to Normal), Nickelodeon’s Ariana Grande (13), Sean Bradford (The Scottsboro Boys), Darius deHaas (Children of Eden), Brandon Victor Dixon (The Color Purple), Frankie James Grande (Mamma Mia!), Emma Hunton (Spring Awakening), Rebecca Naomi Jones (American Idiot), Adam Kantor (Next to Normal), Morgan Karr (Spring Awakening), Jose Llana (Flower Drum Song), Tracy McDowell (Rent), Christopher Spaulding (Curtains), and Lisa Nicole Wilkerson (The Lion King).

The concert event chair was Ward H. Simmons, Senior Director of PR and Marketing for Hugo Boss, a sponsor of the evening. Other sponsors included Rockin’ the Big Apple Event Planning, Design Compendium, and La Pomme.
