The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center has announced that the final concert, featuring Tony Award winner Michael Rupert and Tony Award Nominee Alison Fraser, has been rescheduled to Monday, May 21, originally set to perform on Monday, March 19.  All patrons have been contacted.  The artists were thrilled to be able to find a new date for the event, having had a last minute scheduling conflict which caused the performers to be unavailable.

"The new 'In Concert' series celebrates the artistry of Broadway's most distinguished performers. The series launched in December, 2007 with one of Broadway's hottest leading ladies – Sherie Rene Scott followed by the dynamic trio of Douglas Sills, Todd Murray and Sally Wilfert in January," stae press notes. Tickets are $20, $35, $75 and $150 – with a cocktail reception for the high-tier prices.

The concert will be a reunion of two of the original stars of March of the Falsettos! "Tony Award-winner Michael Rupert and Tony Award-nominee Alison Fraser return to their roots revisiting songs from Falsettos as well as gems by William Finn cut from the show. We'll also hear funny early drafts of finished songs that we know and love, as well as songs by other emerging voices in contemporary musical theatre. 'In Concert' is produced by Jayson Raitt"
