All things theatrical

A report from the Axial gala

November
19

Stephen Palgon of the Axial Theater dropped me this note this morning:


“I just wanted to let you know that the Axial Theatre Benefit Auction dinner on Saturday was a huge success. We had close to a 100 people if not more in attendance and raised a great deal of money.â€?


“The energy in the room was spectacular and just a complete buzz about what we are doing as a company. One of the guests came up to Howard Meyer the artistic director, and said ‘Something is really happening here with this company.’�


“And we truly believe that. We are in the moment of moving forward and coming out in a big way and making a deep impact here in Westchester and in New York City as well. We want this to be a company that the Westchester community feels a part of and that our success will be the success of the entire community.�


A worthy goal. Congratulations, Axial.

About this blog
If it involves theater in any way -- from grade-schoolers learning Shakespeare to high school musicals to Broadway veterans getting into character -- this is the place to talk about it. We'll have audition notices, casting notices, mini-reviews and plenty of ideas to fill a theater junkie's to-do list.
