About Broadway for Unicef: A Night to Benefit Syrian Refugees
In an evening featuring Barrett Wilbert Weed (Heathers, Bare, Found), Laura Dreyfuss (Glee, Once), and Alex Finke (Les Miserables), performers from Broadway and Off-Broadway will come together to sing music spanning the pop, rock and folk genres. Proceeds from the evening will go to Syrian refugees receiving aid from UNICEF, which is currently mobilizing the largest humanitarian operation in history.
Since the Syrian conflict began four years ago, over 12 million people, more than the entire population of New York City, have been displaced both inside the country and beyond its borders. Because bombs are still being dropped and fighting is raging with no end in sight, too many are unable to return to their homes and every day lives.
This concert is an effort to raise funds and awareness for a situation that is growing more desperate each day, and aims to serve as a reminder that the Broadway community has a special ability to bring people together to positively impact the world.
The concert features music direction by Chris Fenwick (Fun Home, Rocky), and will also include performances by Max Chernin (Bright Star, Brooklynite), Blake Daniel (Spring Awakening), Elizabeth Judd (Bare, Spider-man: Turn off the Dark), Sean Ronayne (Cinderella) and Michael Tacconi (Bare).
