MCC Theater announces MISCAST21 Virtual Gala to stream for free in May

Following the success of their first digital event last year, MCC Theater will present their Miscast21 annual gala celebration online once again this year.

The free broadcast sees the biggest stars of stage and screen singing songs from roles that they would never traditionally be cast in.

Co-Artistic Director of MCC, Bernie Telsey, said: “Sharing Miscast with the world last year was an incredibly rewarding experience for all involved, and we’re looking forward to being able to do that again through this virtual broadcast. We’re excited to continue and grow Miscast in new ways, and create new moments of joy to share with our audiences, artists and community.”

Casting and further details will be announced at a later date.

Miscast21 will premiere on Sunday 16 May 2021 on MCC’s YouTube Channel.
