Young Voices for Change: Magaziner Vocal Studio Benefit for Erik’s Wish

October 12, 2026

Back by popular demand after FIVE sold-out performances, join internationally acclaimed singer and voice teacher Badiene Magaziner for an evening of Broadway and pop favorites with Young Voices for Change, a group founded by Badiene to give singers a platform for social awareness.

The rising MVS stars, will be showcased among MVS Broadway and Off-Broadway stars including Michael Lee Brown (Dear Evan Hansen), Alayna Martus (Disney’s The Lion King), Olivia Edward (Annie Get Your Gun), Aerina DeBoer (“The Summer I Turned Pretty,” Ragtime), Annabelle Kempf (Billy Elliot), Clair Rachel Howell (Wicked), Raquel Nobile Fernandez (Yiddish Fiddler), Savannah Austin (Annie), Luli Mitchell (A Christmas Story), Natalia Bingham (School of Rock), Daniella Castoria (West Side Story, LA Opera), Cara Impallomeni (Dr. Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas!), and Skylar Matthews (The Sound of Music) and will raise funds for the Make-a-Wish Foundation in honor of Badiene’s son, Erik.

Badiene’s only child, Erik Emanuel Boelkow, was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia. Erik’s best chance for survival was a bone marrow transplant with marrow from a healthy donor. No donor was found and Erik died at the tender age of 13. Badiene created a show called Erik’s Wish as a tribute to his short but impactful life!

A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Make-a-Wish Foundation.

Executive produced by Badiene Magaziner.

Produced by Emily Stanton.

Music directed by Ruobing Zhang.
