The third volume of the concert features a cast of dynamic performers from the Broadway and NYC theatre communities, singing songs from across the musical theatre spectrum about, well, love. The love we make, the love we take, the love we find, and the love we hold onto - this evening will see and sing us through it all. This year, the song selections feature female musical theatre writers and composers.

A portion of the proceeds will go to benefit the V-DAY Foundation, a global activist movement to end violence against women and girls. V-Day is a catalyst that promotes creative events to increase awareness, raise money, and revitalize the spirit of existing anti-violence organizations. V-Day generates broader attention for the fight to stop violence against women and girls, including rape, battery, incest, female genital mutilation (FGM), and sex slavery.

This year, the concert features music strictly written by women musical theatre composers and songwriters - Sara Bareilles, Carmel Dean, Carole King, Dolly Parton, Lauren Pritchard, Zoe Sarnak, Georgia Stitt, and Katie Thompson, (just to name a few.)
