We are casting talented performers ages 21 and up to volunteer for the Wickedly Broadway Benefit Bash, a charitable event on Nov 5, in support of the LA LGBT Center Homeless Youth and TransWellness Center.
Studio For Performing Arts LA’s 2nd Annual Charity Event returns with the Wickedly Broadway Benefit Bash, a magical Oz-themed evening on Monday, November 25, 2025!
The Bash will feature an enchanting lineup of musical performances that will take you “over the rainbow,” directed and produced by Walid Chaya, with support from Musical Mondays producer Ishka Maher. We’ll be collecting canned food and gently used clothing donations for the LA LGBT Center and Trans Wellness Center.
Performers can submit a video audition via email for casting consideration.
The event will be held at Musical Mondays, at the Chapel at the Abbey in West Hollywood. Selected performers will need to arrive no later than 9:00pm for a walk-through, with the performance starting at 10:00pm.
This is a volunteer opportunity with no payment for participants. It’s a meaningful way to give back to the community during the Thanksgiving season and holidays, supporting a worthy cause and organization, while also having the chance to perform at an iconic nightlife venue in West Hollywood.
Admission will be free to public, and attendees are encouraged to bring canned food, gently used clothing as donations for the LA LGBT Center homeless youth and TransWellness Center. Last year, we donated hundreds of canned food items and clothing, and are eager to double our donations this year.
