On Monday April 3rd, stars of stage and screen will join FTP to celebrate the life and legacy of Sir Peter Shaffer, much-beloved English playwright and screenwriter known for such iconic works as Equus, Amadeus, and Lettice and Lovage.

From the stables of England, to the Opera houses of Austria, to the Inca kingdom of Peru, Shaffer’s complex explorations of the human condition and mastery of memorable theatrical spectacle have excited and challenged audiences worldwide.

With the generous support of Alec Baldwin and Show-Score.com, we are proud to bring these treasured characters and words back to the New York stage.

Please join our international ensemble for an evening of theatrical excerpts, including Equus, Lettice and Lovage, Black Comedy and Royal Hunt Of The Sun. The event will also feature special guest live and video tributes from Sir Ian McKellen, Sir Tom Stoppard, John Guare, Juliet Mills, Tim Curry and Simon Callow among others.

General admission seats are $10 reservation fee. Allocated seating for $15 also includes a post-event reception and Peter Shaffer Award presentation in the penthouse above the theatre.
All proceeds are used to defray the cost of the event. Any left over money will be donated to the Peter Shaffer Award fund.

We do hope you can join us to celebrate the life and legacy of this generous, daring, and vital contributor to the theatre.
