Tony Award winner Jim Dale will offer a one-night-only performance of Just Jim Dale at Guild Hall at The Little Church on September 22 at 7:30pm. Richard Maltby, Jr. will direct the show, which will benefit The Episcopal Actors’ Guild (EAG).

The evening will consist of anecdotes and song, to be followed by a reception. Aaron Gandy will serve as musical director for the performance, which will also feature Mark York at the piano.


Dale won his Tony Award for his performance in Barnum. Among his other Broadway credits are Scapino, Joe Egg and The Threepenny Opera. He will be returning to Broadway later this season in The Road to Mecca. The actor may be best known for his work recording the entirety of J.K. Rowlings’ Harry Potter series as audiobooks.

EAG is a non-sectarian nonprofit organization dedicated to helping performers in need. There will be a $20.00 suggested donation for the event.
