On With the Show

The spotlight was on the city’s most beloved theaters during a trio of standing-ovation-worthy galas. Stages Repertory Theatre’s Starstruck bash, held at The Corinthian, was its most successful ever, raising more than $380,000. ... Guests at TUTS’ One Night Only event came dressed in black-tie attire that pulled inspiration from the musical Dreamgirls.
