The Fifth Annual Broadway Ball

The Ball will be held at the theatre and will feature an evening of dining and entertainment as well as silent and live auctions that will include dining, sports and travel packages. Experiences, opportunities and memorabilia unique to the Arizona Broadway Theatre will also be offered during the auctions to raise funds for the nonprofit.

“The Broadway Ball is a way for us to celebrate the arts, the community and ABT as a prominent gathering place in the Valley,” said Kiel Klaphake, executive producer at Arizona Broadway Theatre. “Because we are a nonprofit organization, we aim to benefit the community for many years to come. This annual event will help us sustain our existing programs and develop new ones that will enrich lives, not only in the West Valley, but across the state of Arizona and beyond.”

Doors will open at 6:00 p.m. with guests being welcomed by live entertainment and passed hors d'oeuvres to accompany silent auction bidding. The house will open for the dining portion of the evening at 7:00 p.m. The evening’s program will begin with a brief live auction followed by entertainment representative of ABT’s Mainstage programming. An after-party with dancing in the theatre will conclude the festive evening.

The Broadway Ball will raise awareness of the impact that Arizona Broadway Theatre has had on residents and visitors to Peoria, Glendale, Surprise and the Sun Cities for nearly nine years. Proceeds from the event will fund many programs, including scholarships for youth, arts outreach workshops for Title I schools, enhancements to children’s programming and salaries for Mainstage artists.

Invitations to this elegant evening will be mailed in January. For more information about The Broadway Ball, or to request an invitation, please call 623.776.8400. To learn more about Arizona Broadway Theatre and its many artistic programs, visit azbroadway.org
