OH WHAT A NIGHT! Shindig Comes to Florida Studio Theatre in March
The event is on Monday, March 10, 2025.
Florida Studio Theatre has announced its annual fundraising event, The Shindig, taking place on Monday, March 10, 2025, at FST's Hegner Theatre Wing. This year's theme, Oh What a Night!, draws inspiration from the upcoming spring musical Jersey Boys and promises an evening filled with entertainment, community spirit, and support for the theatre's expansion project, the FST Arts Plaza.
The event will be chaired by Anita DeVine, a longtime FST subscriber and 2024 Co-Producer. “I have been attending the Shindigs for over a decade,” says DeVine. “The event brings together theatre lovers, performers, and staff to celebrate FST. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to chair this year, and work with the staff to create a truly memorable event.”
The Shindig: Oh What a Night! will begin at 5:30 p.m. with a lively cocktail reception in FST's Hegner Theatre Wing. Guests will then move to FST's Gompertz Theatre for exclusive live performances by FST's talented artists, showcasing the creativity and energy that define the theatre. The evening will conclude with a seated dinner catered by Michael's On East.
This year's event is generously supported by Gulf Coast Community Foundation as the lead sponsor. Sponsorship opportunities include:
- “Who Loves You” – $5,000 (includes six tickets)
- “My Eyes Adore You” – $2,500 (includes two tickets)
- “Working My Way Back to You” – $1,000 (donation only).
Individual tickets are available for $350 per person.
The evening will also feature the presentation of the Spelman Award, honoring a foundation or individual who has demonstrated exceptional leadership through mentorship, service, or philanthropic support. This award highlights the incredible contributions that make FST's affordable and accessible programming possible for over 225,000 attendees each year.
