The fundraiser - 'Playing for the Playhouse' - was billed as a celebration of the movies and performing arts, and was held at the Harvey School's Walker Center for the Arts in Katonah.

The event included a cocktail reception and the show, which was hosted by Bedford Playhouse President John Farr, and included performances by Glenn Close and Paul Shaffer, Jeffrey Tambor, Chazz Palminteri, Mrs. Marvin Hamlisch and Marissa McGowan and Robert Klein.

Bedford resident Chevy Chase was also scheduled to appear, but was unable to attend due to a professional commitment.

The Playhouse mission is to provide a vibrant cultural and social destination dedicated to screening the best films for discerning adults and families, as well as being a community hub for social gatherings, special events and educational programs relating to film and the arts.
