WOW! What a night 🤩 It was an absolute honor to host this year’s Spotlight Gala for the @huntingtontheatre

Playing any role for this legendary theater is a big deal, and getting to host on a night meant to honor my mentor and former colleague, Karen Holmes Ward, was truly surreal. Karen received the Wimberly Award for making an extraordinary impact on The Huntington and the larger theatre community. Part of that impact was made by hosting this very gala for years. I’m so glad she was able to finally sit back, relax, and enjoy the night!

For 44 years, The Huntington has been Boston’s leading professional theatre company. Much of its incredible programming is supported through generous donations. On this night dedicated to our arts community, we raised 1.7 MILLION DOLLARS! 🎉🎭

This theater has meant so much to so many people over its decades of commitment to this community. I am so proud to have played a small part in those efforts this year.
