Annual Gala
Gala 2024 – april 30, 2024
Our annual gala is a celebration of transformative and captivating work in the theatre with cocktails, conversation, dinner and inspiring performances. We will honor industry professionals whose contributions to the American canon have been singular and immense. Broadway stars join our gala evenings, giving performances to remember!
This year’s gala was an evening of celebrating some of TG’s brightest luminaries! The gala featured a cocktail party, seated dinner, performances, dessert reception, bidding on silent and live auctions, and more–all raising funds toward transporting audiences with live theatre.
This year we honored Jennifer Costello and Jan Svendsen Weiss
From Jack Cummings III: “We are thrilled to honor two amazing women, Jennifer Costello and Jan Svendsen Weiss, at our gala this year. Jennifer Costello is a huge champion and producer of true original work. She is the ultimate collaborator who always places focus on the individual voice of the artist; especially those who are just starting out. Her work as a producer is wide-ranging and absolutely stunning. Jan Svendsen Weiss’ philanthropic career is so extensive and generous. What is really meaningful to me, and to Transport Group, is Jan’s fierce advocacy within the live theatre and artist communities.”
