DRAMATISTS GUILD GALA

Playbill is reporting that Idina will join a who’s-who of Broadway greats at the 2009 Dramatists Guild Gala on April 20th in New York. Idina last participated in this event in 2004 while she was still appearing in Wicked. I wonder what she’ll sing this time?


Peters, Mitchell, Mays, Menzel, Lane, Ebersole, Miranda and More Set for Dramatists Guild Gala

A host of top Broadway stars will take part in The Dramatists Guild Fund’s annual benefit gala April 20.
