The Kretzer Piano Music Foundation (KPMF) will be presenting the 4th annual PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE, featuring the musical talents of 20 local doctors and medical professionals. This fun-filled "Prescription for a Great Evening" will be held at The Harriet Himmel Theater at CityPlace in West Palm Beach on Tuesday, August 18 at 7:30 pm.

"This talented line-up for this year's PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE will include another All-Doctor Band, ballroom dancers, vocalists, instrumentalists and even a magician," promises Kathi Kretzer, founder of the Kretzer Piano Music Foundation. "We were thrilled when our first three concerts raised more than $150,00 to benefit underprivileged children in our area."

Tickets are $75 each (tax deductible) and can be purchased by calling Complete Ticket Solutions at 866.449.2489. Profit raised from this year's PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE will enable KPMF to expand its music education programs for children in need.

"For example, donations from the Kretzer Piano Music Foundation enabled seven talented kids from Faith's Place to participate in the Young Singers of the Palm Beaches this past season, which helped three of them to get accepted into BAK Middle School for next year," says Ms. Kretzer.

"We are still looking for sponsors for the next PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE, and interested individuals and companies are encouraged to call me directly at 561.748.0036," she adds.
