Veanne Cox, Helen Gallagher, Debbie Gravitte, Alice Ripley, and Emily Skinner are among the stars set for the Second Annual Broadway Cabaret Festival, to take place at The Town Hall on October 20-22. The event will be produced and hosted by TheaterMania columnist Scott Siegel.

The festival will begin on October 20 with a tribute to composer Jerome Kern, which will feature such stars as Stephen Bogardus, Leslie Kritizer, Nancy Lemenager, Jack Noseworthy, Noah Racey, and Michael Winther. The following evening, October 21, will mark a special reunion concert featuring Alice Ripley and Emily Skinner, who co-starred in the Broadway musical Side Show.

A huge hit at last year’s festival, the Broadway Originals concert will make a return appearance on October 22. In addition to Cox, Gallagher, and Gravitte, the show will include appearances by Jeb Brown, Christiane Noll, Lemenager, Racey, and many other stars singing the numbers they made famous on Broadway.
