Little Theater, Big Dreams 2013 Benefit Cabaret

The Off-Broadway hidden gem, located inside the historic West Side Y, will play host to powerful performances from Broadway’s brightest up-and-coming stars alongside their our own Kids Company, a group of young triple-threats-in-training. All proceeds will benefit the on-going youth theatre programs supported by the Y’s Strong Kids Campaign.

Some show-stopping numbers include the adorable orphans of the current Broadway revival of Annie and the Y’s Kids Company in an updated version of the old classic “I Won’t Grow Up” from Peter Pan, and Miss New York Shannon Oliver will lead the Kids Company singers in Sondheim’s moving “Children Will Listen” from Into the Woods. So You Think You Can Dance fan favorite Ryan Kasprzak will dazzle the crowd with his fancy footwork, and there will be a special appearance by Mikey who plays Annie’s furry, four-legged friend Sandy in Broadway’s Annie.
