Freestyle Love Supreme co-creator Anthony Veneziale hosts The Actors Fund’s virtual benefit Halloween Is Not Cancelled October 28. The holiday special streams on Britesiders at 8 PM ET.
Also slated to appear are Elvira Mistress of the Dark, married American Idol and Broadway alums Diana DeGarmo and Ace Young, Tony-winning costume designer Linda Cho, make-up artist and educator Eddie Duyos, and Nate Bakes Broadway.
Leading up the event, audiences were invited to enter an Instagram costume contest. The top-liked posts in each category were shared October on Britesiders, where fans can now vote for their favorites by making a donation to The Actors Fund.
Hitting the stage after going viral on TikTok, the work features music and lyrics by James Stryska and Isabel Grace and a book by Erica Molfetto and Molly Russo.
Next year, Carnegie Hall's house band will perform Bernstein’s “Kaddish” Symphony, unfinished works by Schubert, and the final concert of Conductor Bernard Labadie.
