A host of Broadway stars are honoring Prince this month with an encore performance of their stage tribute to “Purple Rain.”
Actors including Tony Award winner Lena Hall, Tony-nominated Robin De Jesus and Kinky Boots star E. Clayton Cornelious will take part in “Dearly Beloved… A Concert Tribute to Purple Rain” on May 16.
All three performers took part in the original concert, which paid tribute to the 30th anniversary of “Purple Rain," back in 2014.
Playbill called the original tribute one of the “most unforgettable theatrical experiences of 2014,” according to a release.
“Strobes, flash, 10,000 feathers and fog will all be used for this concert experience,” the release added.
The tribute will benefit Arts for All, a New York City-based nonprofit that gives children who “face socio-economic, physical or emotional barriers" access to the arts.
The show is happening at 42West, 514 W. 42nd St. Doors open at 7 p.m.
