Midtown Men Will Headline Bucks County Playhouse's Gala

One of Bucks County’s most beautiful country properties and the stars from the original Broadway cast of Jersey Boys take center stage at the 2023 Gala to benefit Bucks County Playhouse on September 23 at Hickory Hill Farm in Upper Makefield.

Presented by Playhouse Artists, the non-profit organization that supports the growth and sustainability of the Playhouse, the evening will celebrate the work the Playhouse does on stage, for the community, and in our schools.

Whitney and Christopher Chandor, Ann Meredith and Joseph Wingert, and Carole and Lee Schram serve as this year’s honorary co-chairs that will honor Playhouse Artists Board Chair Marvin Woodall and his wife Dee Ann. Woodall has served as Playhouse Artists Board chair since its inception 10 years ago. Esteemed Bucks County philanthropists, the Woodalls’ transformational leadership has inspired incredible growth for the Playhouse. Lynn and Ed Breen are Presenting Sponsors with Sue and Jim Anderson; Kim and Ed Gibbons; Gayle Goodman and Jim Searing; Patricia and Adolf Herst; Happy and Sam Shipley; and Sally and Harlan Weisman as Platinum Sponsors.

Under a large festive tent and beneath beautiful autumn skies — attendees will gather at Hickory Hill Farm, the home of Whitney and Christopher Chandor. Guests will sip cocktails and enjoy an inspired feast catered by Fancy Fig Catering. Gala festivities include celebrations of the honorees, a live auction of carefully curated experience-based items, an opportunity to support the Playhouse Education programs, and a concert by The Midtown Men. The night concludes with desserts, coffee, and cocktails. Event coordination by Roberts Event Group and Production by Visual Infinity.
