Trinity Repertory Company has announced that they have been included in Providence Place Gives, a fundraising event hosted by Providence Place and sponsored by Rhode Island Monthly. The event will take place on Sunday, October 28, from 7 to 9 p.m.

Providence Place Gives celebrates five local non-profit organizations and the passionate philanthropists who support them in this community friendly fundraising event. This year, Suzanne Magaziner, Secretary of the Board and Member of the Executive Committee for Trinity Rep is one of five women to be honored in the event. Trinity Rep audiences and supporters are invited to support to Suzanne Magaziner for her unflagging hard work and dedication by supporting this noteworthy event.

Stephanie Rice, Marketing Manager of Providence Place said "We hope the community will join us for an exciting evening of recognition to honor our city's gracious givers and their passion, commitment and energy to making a better Rhode Island for all of us.” The evening's festivities include cocktails and hors d'oeuvres from Blackstone Caterers, raffle items and the opportunity to bid on a variety of unique items in a silent auction. Miss Rice also stated "The evening will be filled with great entertainment and extraordinary prizes. We are looking forward to a wonderful turnout and an enthusiastic show of support for a number of really good causes."

In 2009 she served as Chair of the Pell Awards with Ira when their friend, Kevin Spacey, was honored. Currently, Suzanne is serving as Chair of Trinity Rep’s $18 million Capital Campaign, working to bring the Campaign to a successful close by the end of the Theater’s 50th anniversary season in 2014 so that future generations may experience the transformative power of the arts.
