Broadway Inspirational Voices to Perform at Kathleen Marshall's World Wide Orphan Fondation Gala Tonight

Broadway Inspirational Voices (BIV) will be performing at the 'Anniversary Year' for Worldwide Orphans Foundations at their 10th annual gala November 17, 2014 at Cipriani at 7pm. Organizer of the evening is 3 time TONY winning Choreographer Kathleen Marshall (Anything Goes, The Pajama Game). Katie Couric will be the gala host in addition to a multitude of other celebrities attending such as Rosie O'Donnell and Mary-Louis Parker.

BIV director and founder, TONY and Grammy nominee Michael McElroy supports the efforts of the WWO and their commitment to offering support to orphans and at-risk children. This is a platform that hits home for McElroy and the not-for-profit BIV as it is their mission to provide Hope, to Inspire and Transform youth through music.
