Aaron Tveit to Headline Mahaiwe Gala
 |
GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass.—Tony-winning and Grammy-nominated Broadway, television, and film star Aaron Tveit will headline the Mahaiwe Performing Arts Center's 2025 Gala on Sunday, July 13 at 8 p.m., replacing the previously scheduled performer, Andrew Rannells.
This change reflects an unavoidable scheduling conflict on behalf of the originally planned artist.
All other gala details remain unchanged, including date, time, location, and prices. See below for gala information.
Aaron Tveit is a Tony-winning, American theatre, television, and film actor.
Tveit earned a 74th Annual Tony Award leading the cast of the world premiere production of "Moulin Rouge!" The Musical. A stage adaptation of Baz Luhrmann's critically acclaimed film, the Grammy-nominated show premiered on Broadway in the summer of 2019. Tveit also received an Outer Critics Circle honor for his performance. He is next to be seen in the iconic Chess co-starring Lea Michelle and Nicholas Christopher, coming this fall.
Tveit's performance will be preceded by a gala reception and dinner at 5 p.m., under a grand canopy tent at 52 Castle Street, the former freight yard steps away from the theater at 14 Castle Street. The tent is provided by Mahaiwe Tent.
Dinner will be catered by Peter Platt of Old Inn on the Green. The event is coordinated in partnership with Only in My Dream Events, with floral design by Erica Darling Flowers.
The Mahaiwe's gala is the organization's main annual fundraising event. In addition to performance and gala ticket sales, the Mahaiwe will raise funds for the completion and launch of its new venue, the Indigo Room, next door to the theater at 20 Castle Street, through a paddle raise auction during the gala.
Mahaiwe Board member Jamie DuMont and his husband and former Board member Rick Miramontez chair this year's Gala Committee. DuMont is a co-founder of theatrical production company The Fabulous Invalid, which brought Call Fosse at the Minskoff to the Mahaiwe in 2022. Miramontez is a public relations specialist and founder of DKC-O&M, a public relations agency for the arts and culture industry.
