Tony Award winner Alan Cumming, most recently on Broadway in the revival of The Threepenny Opera, hosts the event, which is scheduled to begin at 7 PM. Joe DiPietro directs the evening with musical direction by Seth Rudetsky. The fundraiser will also honor the Sesame Workshop with the first annual Only Make Believe Community Award for "its outstanding dedication to children and families in our community and beyond."
