Sondheim on Sondheim - Benefit for Agapé

Agape News

Please join Agapé, the Lutheran-Episcopal Campus Community (LECC), for a matinee performance of a stunning visual and aural experience, "Sondheim on Sondheim" at the beautifully restored and intimate Hanna Theatre in Downtown Cleveland on Saturday, May 19. The show starts at 4pm and included as part of your ticket are yummy pre-show appetizers (catered by Bricco's) in the Hanna's private Salon room, 3-4 pm (just to the left off the lobby). A cash bar will be available. The Hanna Theater is located at 2067 E.14th Street, Cleveland, Ohio 44115 (between Euclid Ave. and Prospect).

Parking (not included) is available in the Hanna Garage on Prospect or the surface lots on Prospect.

The benefit is aimed to support our ministry work on local college campuses through AGAPÉ, the Lutheran-Episcopal Campus Community (LECC). Directed by Reverend Joe Kovitch, AGAPÉ ministers to students and emerging young adults at Cleveland State University, and Case-Western Reserve University (via St. Alban's Church). Through this outreach, students have learned the love of Jesus, the value of Christian peace and justice, and various expressions of worship.

This theatrical event is a regional premiere and has only been presented previously on Broadway! The Tony award-winning composer-lyricist Stephen Sondheim is featured in exclusive interview footage about a life and artistic process that has touched the world. This is accompanied by live performances of dozens of tunes from his amazing 50 year Broadway legacy, including West Side Story, Gypsy, Into the Woods, Sweeney Todd, Company, A Little Night Music, Follies and many more.

It is a multi-media, interactive event not to be missed! It was created by Ohio native James Lapine and takes you inside the mind and music of one of Broadway's greatest living composers!
