Steppenwolf Theatre Company is replacing its 2020 gala with a special online event, “Pants Optional: A Steppenwolf Soiree,” celebrating the power of theater and raising vital funds.
Ensemble member Audrey Francis will emcee this festive (and free) virtual gathering on Saturday, May 9, at 6:30 p.m., with special appearances by Steppenwolf ensemble members Joan Allen, Gary Cole, John Malkovich, Sandra Marquez and Laurie Metcalf, along with celebrity guests who will be announced on Steppenwolf’s social-media channels and website.
Wrapping up Steppenwolf’s spectacular online bash, attendees can participate in a virtual dance party with DJ Tracy Young, who won a 2020 Grammy for her remix of Madonna’s “I Rise.”
