Every year, thirty or so lawyers take to the boards or play in the Lawyer Show band, collectively donating more than 2,800 hours of their time to prove that acting, music and the practice of law have way too much in common. Lines are learned, songs are sung, music is played, audiences applaud, money is raised, and fun and friendship abound along the way.
This year's Lawyer Show is...
MAMMA MIA!
Music and Lyrics by Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, and some songs with Stig Anderson
Book by Catherine Johnson
An exclusive post-show reception will follow each performance, featuring hors d'oeuvres and a fantastic silent auction.
Funds raised by the Lawyer Show support CTYP’s mentorship of emerging artists and accessibility initiatives and Touchstone Theatre’s new play development.
