About the Show

Jay Armstrong Johnson’s beloved Halloween benefit concert I Put a Spell on You returns to Webster Hall on Monday, October 20th at 8pm for its milestone 10th Anniversary. Inspired by Disney’s Hocus Pocus, this one-night-only spooktacular conjures show-stopping musical numbers, jaw-dropping choreography, and spine-tingling spectacle.

What began as a small cabaret has grown into a full-scale Halloween theatrical experience, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Ali Forney Center, the organization supporting LGBTQIA+ youth experiencing homelessness.
