Theatre gods, hear our prayer: please make
Broadwayâs Masked Singer a yearly event. The premiere episode was everything you expect from that
other show of a similar name (which has no affiliation to this fundraiser for Broadway Cares): fun and silly with standout performances. The stakes are low (all proceeds go to the non-profit), but the drama is high (who is hiding beneath the mask?! Who will get eliminated?!).
The show kicked off with hosts, producers, and creators Michael Hull and Dylan Bustamante introducing the eveningâs panel: Jackie Cox, Christopher Metzger-Timson, Kevin Metzger-Timson, Natalie Weiss, Abby DePhillips, Felicia Fitzpatrick, and Ben Cameron. All of them have Broadway ties, with some having appeared on the Main Stem before, and they brought their A-game with themâalong with some snazzy, sparkly outfits.
