Darrell Hammond Kicks Off Bay Street's 20th Season with Benefit
Bay Street Theatre celebrated the kickoff to its 20th Season with a Spring Benefit on April 3. The event was themed around Truman Capote, who is the subject of the first Mainstage Show beginning May 31 entitled TRU, starring SNL'S Darrell Hammond; directed by Judith Ivey. The event started with a brunch with Darrell Hammond at The American Hotel, followed by a champagne toast, raffles, piano music back at Bay Street Theatre and the screening of BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S, based on the book by Truman Capote. One lucky attendee won the raffle for a new silver beaded Tiffany & Co. necklace donated by a patron for the event. There was also a contest for the best Audrey Hepburn costume. Attached is a photo of all the Audrey Hepburn costume entries. The winners won a framed set of photos of Audrey Hepburn and a book about Hepburn provided by Canios Books.
The brunch was generously underwritten by an anonymous donor so all proceeds for this event benefited Bay Street Theatre.Bay Street Theatre is a not-for-profit regional theater presenting new, classic and contemporary works, with a commitment to challenging and entertaining our diverse community.
