Tonight at 7:00pm, the current Broadway cast of the Tony-winning musical FUN HOME will perform a special concert version of the show at Orlando's Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts to benefit the victims of last month's tragic events at the Pulse Nightclub and Equality Florida.

Before this one-of-a-kind performance begins, BroadwayWorld will be conducting special interviews with the show's stars Tony-winner Michael Cerveris and Tony-nominee Beth Malone, the show's creators, Tony-winners Lisa Kron and Jeanine Tesori, and director Tony-winner Sam Gold.

So, tune into the official BroadwayWorld Facebook page around 5:45pm ET for these special interviews, and any other news from the "FUN HOME for Orlando" Concert.


About the Concert:

All nine of the show's onstage company members, including Tony Award-winner Michael Cerveris, four-time Tony Award nominee Judy Kuhn, 2015 Tony Award nominees Beth Malone, and Emily Skeggs, Gabriella Pizzolo, Roberta Colindrez, Cole Grey, Zell Steele Morrow, and Joel Perez, along with the show's Tony Award-winning creators Lisa Kron (Book & Lyrics), Jeanine Tesori (Music) and Sam Gold (Direction) will be in attendance.

100% of the net proceeds of this benefit performance will support the future work of Equality Florida, and the victims of the horrific Pulse shooting. Half of the money raised will be distributed directly to victims and their families, and half will support Equality Florida's work to end discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Fun Home is able to fly down to Orlando for this benefit performance thanks to the generosity of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the producers and co-producers of Fun Home, and the Wyndham Orlando.
