Goodman Theatre was full of "Glee" on May 21 at the theater's black tie "One Enchanted Decade" gala. The Emmy, Golden Globe and Tony-Award nominated Matthew Morrison performed for a sold-out crowd of more than 850 guests as they celebrated the theater's 10th anniversary at its 170 N. Dearborn St. home in the heart of Chicago's Theater District. Co-chaired by Women's Board members Margaret M. Janus and Swati Mehta, the event raised a record $1 million to benefit the Goodman's Education and Community Engagement programs.
Guests arriving at the Goodman Theatre walked the gold carpet and were treated to a medley of songs from Regina Dominican High School Girls Chorale. The singers received a treat of their own when Matthew Morrison arrived and gave each girl a special high-five before greeting guests. The festivities began at 5:30pm with a cocktail reception in the Goodman's lobby followed by Morrison's 6:30pm performance in the theater.
