Manhattan Theatre Club’s Winter Benefit: An Intimate Night will be held on Monday, January 26, 2009 at the fabled Rainbow Room atop Rockefeller Center. Unlike any other evening in New York, MTC’s An Intimate Night is a dazzling musical event that brings you up close to Broadway’s most glittering stars for an exclusive one-night only cabaret. The festivities begin at 7pm and include cocktails, dinner and a sensational lineup of cabaret performances. Hosted by James Naughton (Chicago, City of Angels), this year’s show will feature performances from Broadway’s most dazzling young stars, including Renee Elise Goldsberry (”One Life to Live,” The Color Purple), Cheyenne Jackson (Xanadu, All Shook Up) and Leslie Kritzer (On the Town, A Catered Affair).

Funds raised from An Intimate Night will provide critical resources for Manhattan Theatre Club’s Education Program, which brings theatre to over 4,000 New York City schoolchildren every year, and will allow MTC to fulfill its mission as a leading non-profit theatre company producing contemporary plays on and off-Broadway. The event is co-chaired by Board Members Bethany Millard and Fiona Kirk.

Tickets are $2,500 and $1,500. Tables of 10 are $25,000, $20,000 and $15,000. For more information, please call (212) 399-3000, ext. 4145.
