Description: After a three-year COVID hiatus, Jenniver and Curt are looking forward to bringing the annual benefit back this summer, though in a slightly different way. As many are aware, Kevin Kelly appeared in more than half of our benefit productions – more than any other performer – and played a huge role in the benefit experience, even in years that he didn’t perform with us. As we thought about what the production would be like in Kevin’s absence – and how we might switch things up after a few years off – we realized that a cabaret tribute would be a way to honor Kevin and his “TPOG” philosophy that is at the heart of why we do these benefits, as well as remembering other benefit alumni who have left us.
