The evening begins with guests mingling over libations and a buffet with alumni performers sharing favorite Porchlight production stories. The anniversary performance begins at 7:30 p.m. as alumni actors take to the stage reprising their favorite roles. Performers include Suzanne Getz, who most recently starred in "Elegies" during the Finn Festival of the tenth anniversary season, singing a number from William Finn’s "A New Brain," and Heather Townsend who starred in this season’s Macabaret reprising her show-stopping “My Husband Makes Movies” from "Nine: The Musical." Included in the ticket price is an open bar—beer, wine, and soft drinks—along with a buffet catered by Chicago’s premier caterers, Bespoke Cuisine. Guests and alumni will be able to bid on a variety of restaurant, spa, and cultural gift certificates at the benefit’s silent auction.
