Just one correction! The City of Huntington Foundation Tribute to Magic Makers is just that. It is not to generate funds for the Foundation, but to pay tribute to the 36 years of service and the many contributions Fen Fox & Ken Epperly made to our theatrical worlds. We will not be promoting anything but appreciation for their work. Their musical favorites will be performed as it is a Reunion of performers, an opportunity for them to come and sing those musical numbers requested by the Ken's. It is a historic opportunity to come and see talent, love, and friendships all come together as this chapter closes.
