Beck Broadway Alums in Concert

Beck Center has a sterling reputation of cultivating talented performers who go on to success in hit Broadway shows and associated tours; making their mark in a highly competitive world. That is true with these actors and singers who will entertain and share stories of their experiences with Beck Center, and professional gigs, off, and on Broadway.

Scott Spence, Artistic Director for the past 30 years at Beck Center for the Arts, and producer
of this virtual event says "I am both thrilled and touched that these amazing performers are
thinking of Beck Center during such a challenging time for the Arts. Each of them has
memorably shared their magic on Beck's stages, and I am so gracious to each of them for
giving back."

showcased in The Little Mermaid and Evil Dead, The Musical at Beck Center.
