Highlighting the work of the legendary John Kander and Fred Ebb, this year’s Classics Gone Mad! will be held at CSC’s Lynn F. Angelson Theater on Monday April 7 at 7pm.
 
Brandon Contreras (Operation Mincemeat), Kevin Csolak (Gypsy), and Karli Dinardo (Bob Fosse’s Dancin’) join the previously announced Tony Award nominee Leslie Rodriguez Kritzer (Spamalot), Olivier Award winner Lesli Margherita (Gypsy), John Riddle (Frozen), The Skivvies (Nick Cearley and Lauren Molina), Tony Award nominee Ethan Slater (CSC’s Assassins, Wicked film), Tonatiuh (Kiss of the Spiderwoman film), and Jessica Vosk (Hell’s Kitchen).
