This weekend, Fountain Hills Theater's Broadway Quarantine Cabaret will be host to a very special theater roundtable entitled “Reaching across the Racial Divide.” Co-moderated by FHT’s Wallot and well-known Valley actor Damon J. Bolling, our panel of distinguished working artists will discuss the role of people of color in the arts - within the current environment, the past and a hopeful present. Panelists include Savannah Alfred (Kinky Boots/Phoenix Theater), Nathan Alfred (Big River/Hale Center Theater), Anne-Lise Koyabe (Americano/Phoenix Theater), Phoebe Koyabe (Broadway's Dear Evan Hansen), Racquel McKenzie (Southwest Shakespeare Company), and Sonia Rodriguez Wood (Americano/Phoenix Theater).
With 17 episodes under their belt, Broadway Quarantine Cabaret shows have included many local valley favorite performers who have previously appeared at Fountain Hills Theater, Phoenix Theater, Arizona Broadway Theater, Hale Center Theater, TheaterWorks, Mesa Encore Theater and many others. Also included have been numerous youth performers from our Fountain Hills Youth Theater productions, and various staff members sharing their insights. Making good use of Executive Director Wallot’s connections (a former Broadway performer himself), the show’s featured guests have included Tony Award winner Kelli O’Hara, Broadway performers Doreen Montalvo (Mrs. Doubtfire), Kelli Rabke (JOSEPH revival), Greg Mills (Phantom of the Opera), Gerry McIntyre (Spamilton) and the Emmy-Award winning star of NBC’s Day of our Lives, Eric Martsolf.
Broadway Quarantine Cabaret can be viewed LIVE on our new YouTube channel or follow us on Facebook and see it on Facebook LIVE at www.facebook.com/fountainhillstheater. Once shows have aired, you can watch then 24 hours a day on both YouTube and Facebook.
During each broadcast FHT asks viewers to help support the small non-profit theater by going to their website at www.fhtaz.org and clicking DONATE. All donations are tax-deductible.
