Playwrights’ Arena is celebrating its 18th year with Hot Night in the City, the annual fundraiser comprised of an evening of songs by local composers and lyricists. “We are also honoring three people who have made outstanding contributions to the Los Angeles theatre,” says Artistic Director Jon Lawrence Rivera.
They are Ben Guillory, Artistic Director of the Robey Theatre Company; Terence McFarland, Executive Director of LA Stage Alliance; and Madeline Puzo, Dean of USC School of Theatre. The event will be held on Tuesday, May 4 at Ultra Suede, 661 N. Robertson Blvd. in West Hollywood. The program begins at 7:30 pm, preceded by an hour-long VIP reception. A no-host bar will be available.
