2024 Williamstown Theatre Festival Gala
February 12 | City Winery in NYC
Join us at the 2024 WTF Gala, honoring Jenny Gersten for her terrific fifteen years of service to WTF! Join us for an evening of delicious food, joyous performances and special appearances by Laura Benanti, Charlie Day, Micaela Diamond, Alex Edelman, Lena Hall, David Hornsby, Grace McLean, Nate Mooney, Clint Ramos, Jimmi Simpson, and Alex Timbers, and a sneak peek at the 2024 Season—including our exciting return to fully staged productions. Celebrate with the artists that you love while honoring Jenny and supporting the Festival that you love!
As we prepare to celebrate 70 years of creative excellence and cultural enrichment, we are reminded of the profound impact that the Festival has had on artists, audiences, and the American Theater at large. Your support helps to ensure that this legacy endures, as we take strides to create a Festival that can continue to thrive for another 70 years and beyond.
