Singing with the Stars

Fri, Mar 1, 7:00 pm | $100 | NorShor Theatre

Event Navigation

Duluth Playhouse invites the community to its biggest fundraiser of the year. The second annual Singing with the Stars is a night in which local personalities live out their musical theater dreams.

After guests walk the red carpet, they will be greeted with a champagne toast and d’oeuvres. The evening’s entertainment will commence with a Broadway-style performance competition featuring a variety of Twin Ports celebrities. Attendees will have the opportunity to mingle with contestants, vote for their favorites, win special prizes and indulge in a dessert and coffee bar by Black Woods and Greysolon Catering. Before the winner is announced, guests will enjoy a reprise performance from 2023’s Champion Solomon Witherspoon and a sneak peek of the Playhouse’s upcoming production of the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical Next to Normal.

The Singing with the Stars contestants are Azrin Awal (UMD, City of Duluth), Russell Habermann (Essentia Health), Theresa Jacobson (North Shore Bank), Kenny Johnson (WDIO), Hunter McCollough (Northern News Now), Laura Mullen (Bent Paddle Brewing Co.), Chelsea Roy (Wheeler Associates), Emily Vikre (Vikre Distillery), Robin Washington (Wisconsin Public Radio), and Stephanie Williams (Duluth School Board). Celebrity judges Dan Hanger (FOX 21), Katy Helbacka (director, actor, improviser), and last year’s winner Solomon Witherspoon (recording artist, songwriter, entertainer) will offer cheeky banter after each performance.

All proceeds from the event will go toward supporting Twin Ports-area artists and bolstering Duluth Playhouse’s School of Performing Arts. The Playhouse plays a pivotal role in the community by providing more than 600 positions to local actors, directors, designers, instructors and various other artists. Each season, the theater offers year-round educational programming to more than 500 youth and adults.

To book seats, visit the box office at the NorShor Theatre Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., call 218-733-7555, or visit ovationtix.com.

Doors open at 6 p.m.
