Broadway superstar Sierra Boggess headlines our seventh annual benefit for Autism New Jersey. Sierra became Broadway royalty with her very first role as Ariel in Disney's "Little Mermaid." Since then, she has added to her resume with lead roles in "Master Class" with Tyne Daly, "Music in the Air" with Kristin Chenoweth, "Phantom of the Opera," and "School of Rock." Sierra also originated the role of Christine Daae in the sequel to "Phantom..." -- "Love Never Dies."
Not just one Broadway legend, but two!! Rebecca Luker, the star of "Cinderella," "Mary Poppins," "Showboat," "The Secret Garden," "The Sound of Music," and "Music Man," will be joining Sierra.
Joining the two will be "My Fair Lady" cast member and understudy for the lead Laura Benanti, Heather Botts, also of Doctor Zhivago, and the star of the first national tour of "The King an I."
