SoundWaters Tall Ships Ball
“Tall Ships Ball’s a stage and we are merely players.”
– Bill Shakespeare
Actors spend their careers trying to make it to the Broadway stage. Many never succeed, but you will in the new SoundWaters production: Tall Ships Ball – The Musical. You will be a star in this very special, one-night-only engagement. Just come as a character from your favorite Broadway show. Will you be Annie or Daddy Warbucks from Annie? Lola from Kinky Boots? Elphaba or Galinda from Wicked? Simba from The Lion King? Maybe you’ll come as Jean Valjean or Cosette from Les Misérables or even King George III from Hamilton. And, of course, you can come as The Phantom. You have hundreds of shows and thousands of characters to choose from and you will join a cast of iconic Broadway characters because your fellow cast members will also be channeling their favorite Tony Award-winning shows.
So choose your favorite character and get into the dressing room. The historic Schooner Theater at Riverside Yacht Club will be sold out, the drinks will be flowing and the band will be tuned up in the pit. All we need then is a star…you! So break a leg and let’s put on the biggest show of the year: Tall Ships Ball – The Musical.
This is your big shot…and you’re not throwin’ away your shot!
Why?
Because we’re all players in the same show and the ending really matters. When you come to the Tall Ships Ball, you’re bringing the passion, enthusiasm and support to help SoundWaters provide access to Long Island Sound to over 25,000 students, no matter their background. They will learn the science they need to manage a complicated planet. They’ll build life and work skills to be successful. When you help them discover the Sound, they can embrace the world.
The curtain is ready to go up. Let’s hit our marks!
