Four Broadway artists are coming together for a magical evening of musical theatre in Kentucky this August. On August 23rd, Jessamine County Arts is hosting its third annual, "LOVE, BROADWAY: A BENEFIT CONCERT" at Equus Run Vineyards in Midway, KY.
The concert will feature Mary Kate Morrissey, who is known for her roles in Wicked and Mean Girls; John Cardoza, who originated roles in The Notebook and Jagged Little Pill, as well as led the company of Moulin Rouge both on the National Tour and on Broadway. Kentucky native Noah J. Ricketts, who originated the role of Nick Carraway in The Great Gatsby, as well as appeared in Frozen and Beautiful: The Carole King Musical will also be a part of the special night. Rounding out the Broadway artists will be Courtney Reed, Broadway's original Jasmine from Aladdin, who has also been featured as Broadway's sparkling diamond in Moulin Rouge, and shows like In the Heights and Mamma Mia!
