The Entertainment Community Fund announced that the September 4 Stars in the House Labor Day Special has raised more than $55,000 so far, bringing the total amount raised by Stars in the House for the Fund to over $1,253,780 since March 2020.

I have to say that what Seth Rudetsky and James Wesley, and the broader musical theatre and entertainment community, have achieved in response to Covid is awe-inspiring. Working in theatre is a financially precarious endeavour for many people, and Rudetsky and Wesley have organised online reunions and mini concerts (my favourites were the Ragtime and Fame movie ones) to help support those most in need during this time.

Past episodes of Stars in the House are available on YouTube
