LIGHTS OF BROADWAY Pride Gala Benefits Triangle Community Center
The event is on May 29.
Josie & Tony's Italian Deli and Supper Club will present the Lights of Broadway Pride Gala on Thursday, May 29, 2025, a spectacular evening celebrating the LGBTQ+ community while benefiting Norwalk’s Triangle Community Center (TCC).
The event kicks off at 7:00 PM with a cocktail reception, followed by a four-course sit-down dinner curated by Executive Chef Marcelo Flores, with premium wine pairings selected by award-winning sommelier and owner Joshua Mesnik. Guests will also enjoy an open bar throughout the night.
Entertainment will be headlined by Broadway stars, including performances from:
- Emily Klein (Parade)
- Raissa Katona Bennett (Phantom of the Opera)
- Craig Rubano (Les Misérables, The Scarlet Pimpernel)
- Edwin Sutton (Sasha Pierce Davenport)
- Music Director, Mark Janus (Les Misérables National Tour)
The evening will feature a live and silent auction offering exclusive luxury experiences and unique items — including a guitar signed by Jon Bon Jovi, donated by wine sponsor Hampton Water. Also included in the auction is a VIP wine tasting and cave tour at Schramsberg Vineyards in Sonoma, a painting by fashion designer Christian Siriano, an "Impossible NYC Reservation" at a West Village hotspot, and 2 tickets to see the NY Knicks or NY Rangers at Madison Square Garden in a private members-only suite.

"The most vulnerable in our community are under attack at the federal level and we're facing challenges locally," said Rachel Simon, Executive Director at Triangle Community Center (TCC). She continued, "We've had programs canceled by community partners complying with executive orders, we're welcoming new neighbors who are fleeing unsafe states to find gender-affirming care, and working to be sure that TCC remains steadfast, safe, and supportive. We're seeing real stressors impacting our community and we're working hard to support queer joy at this time. We're so grateful to be partnering with our neighbors at Josie & Tony's to creatively meet these needs."
