On June 3, Bay Street Theater launched its 2022 Mainstage season with a “Champagne & Petrossian Caviar Reception,” the first of many private dinners that the theater will host throughout the summer season. In lieu of the normal 500-person summer gala on Long Wharf, Bay Street will host VIP dinners and receptions at private residences of Bay Street Theater board members, patrons, and members of the theater-loving community. Past hosts from Bay Street’s 30th anniversary season include Executive Director Tracy Mitchell and her husband, Blaze Makoid, Board of Trustee members and their spouses: Steve Sanders and Madelyn Simon, Mala and Jeff Sander, and Christine Wächter-Campbell and Bill Campbell. For more information about upcoming receptions, or to purchase tickets, contact Director of Philanthropy, Kim Fink, directly at kim@baystreet.org.
The afternoon began with a toast to a fully reopened season of indoor theater — the first full season since summer 2019. Toasts were made by host and Bay Street’s Executive Director Tracy Mitchell, and Artistic Director Scott Schwartz. Special guests included Jason Alexander, director of ‘Windfall,” which opens the mainstage season; Scooter Pietsch, playwright of “Windfall”; actor Richard Kind; Co-Producers of “Windfall,” John Yonover and Marilyn Wilson; additional Broadway producers Jayne Sherman, Riki Kane Larimer, Bonnie Comley, Stewart Lane, and Jamie de Roy. Additional Bay Street Board of Trustee members and their partners included Eric Segal (and Joyce), Wendy Hashmall (and David), Stewart Lane (and Bonnie Comley), and David Fink (and Simon Kinsella).
