Hosted by Marsha Dietlein Bennett, the cast list for this year featured Will Swenson (Hair, Rock of Ages), Brian d'Arcy James (Time Stands Still, Shrek), Chris Barron (lead singer for the Spin Doctors), Jerry Marotta (drummer for Peter Gabriel, Paul McCartney), Gregory Porter (Ain't Nothin' but the Blues, The Civil War), Matt Bennett (Titanic, Blood Brothers), Theresa McCarthy (Titanic, Floyd Collins), Jennifer Prescott (How to Succeed in Business, Carousel), Anne-Julia Audray (Rameau's Pygmalion, Polanski's Master Class), Molly Ranson (August, Osage County, upcoming Carrie production).
These heavyweights performed to the tunes of The Computer School Jazz Band, conducted by Jacam Manricks.
The Computer School is located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. For more information visit www.thecomputerschool.org.
