A concert version of the Stephen Sondheim-John Weidman musical Bounce will be presented as a benefit for The Actors’ Fund of America at Broadway’s Majestic Theatre on Sunday, May 9, at 7:30pm.

The performance will feature the same cast members seen in the production of Bounce that played at the Goodman Theatre in Chicago and the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. last year. Howard McGillin and Richard Kind star as the Mizner Brothers, who try to top each other and find wealth, success, and happiness in opportunity-rich America. Gavin Creel, Herndon Lackey, Michele Pawk, and Jane Powell co-star. Harold Prince, who directed the full production, will direct the concert.

Tickets for the concert range in price from $50 to $1000. They may be purchased by e-mailing ccooke@actorsfund.org; by calling 212-221-7300, ext. 133; or by visiting The Actors’ Fund office at 729 Seventh Avenue (between 48th and 49th streets), 10th Floor.
