The launch for its 60th anniversary Free Shakespeare in the Park season was co-hosted by the gala's co-chairs Mercedes Bass, Jason Blum, Lauren Shumaker Blum, and Julio Peterson, and featured appearances by Lin-Manuel Miranda, and by Danai Gurira, who will star as Richard III in this summer's Shakespeare in the Park production.

Off-Broadway's The Public Theater hosted its Gala on the Green at Central Park's Delacorte Theater May 24. The event starred a line-up of performances by stage alums such as Renée Elise Goldsberry, Oscar Isaac, Norm Lewis, Kimber Elayne Sprawl, Jina Brass Band, and Rich Medina.

First event with The Public Theater, I formed part of the backstage team that did scene changes in between speeches and performances, cueing guests and artists to the stage.
