I Wish: The Roles That Could Have Been- Women’s History Month Edition, feat. Arielle Jacobs & more!
March 13, 2023
Everyone has dreams that we fear will pass us by. For actors those come in the shape and form of roles—whether they’re grown up and become too old for that child star turn, to the soprano never being considered for the baritone lead, everyone has a song in their heart that they’ll likely never get to see come to fruition with a crowd and in lights.
Until tonight.
I Wish: The Roles That Could Have Been — is just that chance for all to embody those “roles come true,” and for an audience to bear witness to actors living out those dreams.
This special edition of I WISH will be a Women’s History Month celebration! Broadway and beyond’s finest singing ladies will be center stage in a celebration of everything it means to be a woman in 2023 from the hilarious to the terrifying to the celebratory to the critical. Womanhood means many things and tonight you’ll hear every angle of it sung from the stage to the rafters!
Join us for a night of surprise, as you see and hear your favorite performers in ways you’d never imagine them.
