Rapp, who originated the role of 'Mark' in the Broadway musical Rent, is coming to town for "Stories, Stage, & Strength: Anthony Rapp in Conversation."

The event is set for 7pm, Saturday, September 26th at the Theatre Workshop of Owensboro's Empress Theatre.

In addition to his work on Broadway, Off-Broadway in his one-man show Without You (which I saw and loved), and his work on Star Trek: Discovery, Rapp has also become an important advocate for victims' rights. It's the latter that brings him to town on behalf of New Beginnings.  As former Board Chair for New Beginnings and a Rapp fan, I will be sitting down with Anthony to walk through his incredible career and the life experiences that have shaped him into an important figure in the conversation for strength, resilience, and survival.

Tickets for "Stories, Stage, & Strength" are FREE. However, space is limited and offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Because of the overwhelming demand for tickets, New Beginnings has established a ticket link that allows you to reserve your seat for the conversation. That link will go live at 8am CST on Tuesday, July 7th. Tickets are limited to ONE PER PERSON.

As for the tickets, there are exactly 238 of them available. When those tickets are claimed, we'll establish a wait/cancellation list.

**Note: All tickets are general admission. There are no reserved seats.**

"Stories, Stage, & Strength: Anthony Rapp in Conversation" is sponsored by the Owensboro Regional Suicide Coalition, Inc. The event is made possible by additional support from River Valley Behavioral Health, Kiwanis Club of Owensboro, Independence Bank, Fraternal Order of Eagles 4168, and The Marilyn & William Young Charitable Foundation.
