Share this Post:

NEW YORK — The ESTA Foundation’s 2011 Behind the Scenes Tony Awards Party will be held in New York on Sunday, June 12. The event brings those who design and support Broadway productions for an evening of schmoozing and to cheer on Tony-nominated shows — all for a good cause.

This year’s party will be held from 7pm – 11pm in an open space with adjoining terrace on the west side of Manhattan, Sun West Studios. Tickets include an open bar, hors d’oeuvres, dinner stations and deserts. Individual tickets are $135, and sponsorships start at $2,500. The reservation form is available at www.estafoundation.org/tonyparty.

The demand for assistance from Behind the Scenes, which provides financial support to entertainment technology professionals when they are seriously ill or injured, is now greater than ever. Grants may be used for medical care such as doctor or hospital bills, medications, and physical therapy or for basic living expenses such as rent, utilities, and food.

Those eligible for grants include production personnel and individuals from every discipline including audio, lighting, projection, scenic, and wardrobe – whether they work in the theatre or for one of the industry’s suppliers.
