JERSEY BOYS National Tour Raises $32,000 for Canadian Actors' Fund and BC/EFA
by Robert Diamond
- Jan 15, 2009
In their latest example of cross-border cooperation, two
entertainment industry charities are sharing $32,000 after cast members of
the US national touring company of Jersey Boys collected donations from
audiences during their stop in Toronto in the last two weeks of November.
The Toronto-based Actors' Fund of Canada and New York-based Broadway
Cares/Equity Fights AIDS (BC/EFA) have collaborated in the past, sharing
donations collected from audiences at other shows on Broadway and in
Toronto.
Jersey Boys' fundraising success came in the weeks prior to installing a
new, mostly Canadian cast to carry the show through to March 1. It follows
on the heels of Actors' Fund curtain speech fundraisers at Dancap's Toronto
revival of The Drowsy Chaperone last season and performances of Avenue Q,
presented by the company in the fall of 2008. Commenting on the relationship
between the Actors' Fund and his company, Dancap President Aubrey Dan said:
'Dancap Productions is delighted to assist the Actors' Fund of Canada in any
way possible. We have the greatest respect for artists and those who work
with them to create and perform the top-notch productions Canada offers to
the world. We know the Actors' Fund does extremely valuable work for members
of our industry and we endorse it wholeheartedly.'
