An updated lineup of performers has been announced for Concert For Victor: A Benefit, to be held at the Carrie Hamilton Theatre at The Pasadena Playhouse on Tuesday, September 13 at 7:30pm.

Artists such as Wayne Brady, Monika Beal, Todd Buonopane, Deborah S. Craig, Devin Kelly, Jennifer Malenke, and Jacquelynn Ware will join the previously reported Ava Gaudet, Melora Hardin, Charley Izabella King, Leigh Ann Larkin, Anneliese van der Pol, and Steven Weber.

The concert will benefit 23-year-old Victor Rodriguez and his family. In June 2011, Sacramento newlyweds Victor and Crystal Rodriguez went parasailing on the last day of their honeymoon in the Bahamas. At a height of approximately 200 feet their harness snapped, and they fell into the ocean. Crystal was killed, and Victor suffered severe injuries. Neither of them had health or life insurance. All proceeds will go to the Rodriguez Family Care Fund.

Jordan Kai Burnett will direct the evening, which will feature accompaniment by Dr. James Lent.
