"We are thrilled to have Lennie Watts as the host for this year's event," said Amiee Turner, President of Ocean State Theatre Company. "He received such a warm reception during his appearance in The Drowsy Chaperone, it is quite evident that theatergoers remember him fondly. In addition to the stage presentation, the evening will include a champagne reception, live and silent auctions, and an after party featuring Rhode Island's own Brass Attack, playing funky 70s dance tunes."

"We are especially grateful to our grand sponsor, First Trade Union Bank, as well as Liberty Rentals, both of whom supported the event last year," continued Ms. Turner. "We are also pleased to welcome Marasco & Nesselbush, who has come aboard as a new sponsor this year."
