New York Stage and Film’s Winter Gala, honoring Tina Fey and Audible, Inc. founder and CEO Don Katz, will be held December 5 at Pier Sixty at Chelsea Piers.
“To say we are thrilled by this year’s gala honorees is an absolute understatement,” said Artistic Director Johanna Pfaelzer in a statement. “Tina is a leading voice in American comedy, from her film and television work, to her upcoming Broadway debut with the Mean Girls musical. And we are so excited to honor Don, who has been a pioneer in the world of audio entertainment, and is currently providing vital support for playwrights through Audible’s recent expansion into the theater world.”
The evening includes cocktails, an auction, dinner, and entertainment from special guests in honor of Fey and Katz.
Fey is best known as Liz Lemon on her Emmy Award-winning comedy series 30 Rock. She also spent nine seasons as a writer and cast member on Saturday Night Live. The musical version of her Mean Girls film, written with husband Jeff Richmond, will arrive on Broadway next year.
