Scott Spence,<https://www.beckcenter.org/about/leadership> Artistic Director for the past 30 years at Beck Center for the Arts, and producer of this virtual event says "I am both thrilled and touched that these amazing performers are thinking of Beck Center during such a challenging time for the Arts. Each of them has memorably shared their magic on Beck's stages, and I am so gracious to each of them for giving back." Talented performers include Kathleen Rooney Faubel, a Baldwin Wallace University Music Theatre Program alum whose talent was showcased in The Little Mermaid and Evil Dead, The Musical at Beck Center. Rory O'Malley, whose illustrious career includes performing as the King in Hamilton, and a Tony Award (r) nomination for The Book of Mormon, performed as a shy kid in Beck Youth Theater productions as well as One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, directed by Scott Spence. Rory attended Carnegie Mellon. Max Chernin was seen on the Beck Center boards in Aida and The History Boys. Max is a Cincinnatti Conservatory of Music Alum. Max performed in Bright Star and Sunday in the Park with George in NYC. Colton Ryan made audiences aware of his talent in Carrie and Dogfight at Beck Center while studying at BW and went on to find Broadway success in Dear Evan Hanson and the new Bob Dylan musical The Girl from the North Country.

Corey has also kindly shared his talents with Beck Center students by providing master classes. Keri Rene' Fuller cut her teeth in Beck Center's Bloody, Bloody Andrew Jackson and Dogfight as a BW alum, then brought her best to Broadway in Waitress.
