Opening Gala on October 22, 2007
"An Evening with Terrence McNally and Friends"

Philadelphia Theatre Company is celebrating the opening of its Suzanne Roberts Theatre with an evening gala, and we want you to join us!

The black tie fundraiser features:
  • 6:00pm
    A lavish cocktail/buffet reception

  • 7:30pm
    An evening of word and song drawn from Tony Award-winner Terrence McNally's best known works, starring Nathan Lane (The Producers), Marian Seldes (Deuce), Edie Falco (The Sopranos), John Glover (Love! Valour! Compassion!), Richard Thomas (Twelve Angry Men), Edward Albee (Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?), and Doris Roberts (Everybody Loves Raymond).

  • 9:00pm
    A post-performance dessert reception with dancing
Because of the intimate design of the Suzanne Roberts Theatre's Mainstage, Benefactor tickets to the Opening Gala are extremely limited.
