Lincoln Center Theater has announced its virtual gala, TALES FROM THE WINGS: A Lincoln Center Theater Celebration!, will stream from 13-17 May, looking back at some of the venue’s iconic productions.

Featuring performance footage and insider anecdotes from artists about their experiences on LCT’s stages, the list of artists and their shows include Patti LuPone in Anything Goes; Audra McDonald in Carousel; Rosemary Harris in A Delicate Balance; Steven Pasquale in A Man of No Importance; Paulo Szot in South Pacific; Seth Numrich in War Horse; Ruthie Ann Miles in The King and I; Bartlett Sher in Oslo;  and Jordan Donica in My Fair Lady. 

There will also be a special appearance by Pulitzer Prize winning playwright, Aya Akhtar, and LCT’s newly named Resident Director Lileana Blain-Cruz will look forward to the company’s upcoming 2021-2022 season. 

The event will stream for free on LCT’s YouTube channel, but donations are encouraged to support LCT’s programming and education programs for NYC public school students during this challenging time.
