Jack O’Brien will be honored at the Sonnet Repertory Theatre’s annual benefit cabaret to be offered on Monday, November 8 at 6pm at Joe’s Pub. Jerry Mitchell will host the event, which will raise money for the company’s ongoing work.

The performance will feature songs from Mark Bennett, Bob James, Andrew Lippa, Dan Lipton, Will Reynolds, Marc Shaiman, Duncan Sheik, Ben Toth, and Scott Wittman.

Among the artists schedule to perform are John Behlmann, Kerry Butler, Michael Cerveris, Victor Garber, Ethan Hawke, and Carly Jibson, along with songwriters Lippa and Sheik. Also performing will be the Joe Allen Players and additional guests to be announced shortly.

O’Brien’s many Broadway credits include The Coast of Utopia, Hairspray, and Henry IV, all of which earned him Tony Awards as Best Director, along with Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Imaginary Friends, The Full Monty, and The Little Foxes. As previously announced he will be represented on Broadway in March with Catch Me If You Can.
