AMERICAN IDIOT Cast Members to Reunite at CURE EPILEPSY TAKES MANHATTAN Benefit

CURE Epilepsy will present CURE EPILEPSY TAKES MANHATTAN on May 4, 2026 at DRAMMA. The one-night-only event will feature a reunion of original cast members from American Idiot in an evening of music, storytelling, and conversation supporting epilepsy research.

The event will be hosted by Miguel Cervantes and Kelly Cervantes, whose advocacy is rooted in their personal experience following the loss of their daughter to epilepsy.

The performance lineup will include Rebecca Naomi Jones, Libby Winters, Ben Thompson, Alysha Umphress, and Brian Johnson, joined by Andrew Call and Van Hughes.

The evening will serve as a fundraiser supporting research initiatives aimed at improving treatments and advancing efforts to cure epilepsy. In addition to the performance, attendees will have opportunities to engage with members of the epilepsy advocacy and research community.
