CELEBRATING PEGGI BLU and DEBRA BYRD

BLU/BYRD

IT'S A CELEBRATION!

Join us: Ty Stephens, Adriane Lenox, John James III, Jenny Douglas-Foote, Keith Anthony Fluitt and Colleen Becton as we remember the lives and artistry of beloved recording artist, American Idol Vegas Week guest coach PEGGI BLU and longtime American Idol and The Voice coach DEBRA BYRD, who, unceremoniously, took their final bow within weeks of each other, earlier this year.

As singers, they have worked alongside the likes of Barry Manilow, Stephanie Mills, Bob Dylan, Barbra Streisand, and so many more, and left indelible marks on concert and theatre stages, television and night clubs!

Our fundraising goal of $5,000. will help cover the cost of a venue, music/musicians, multimedia projection, live streaming, refreshments, and the like, to allow their New York Performing Community family to make public note of their passing and their impact on the performing industry, as they so richly deserve.

The target date for the celebration is late October, early November 2024, on a Monday evening when most theatres are dark.

Hoping to exceed our financial goal, the overage will be donated to the Entertainment Community Fund *(formerly the Actor's Fund) which cares for people in need of support within our industry.

Please spread the word and help us celebrate these two stellar talents, stunning vocalists, compassionate hearts and brilliant lights of our entertainment community: PEGGI BLU and DEBRA BYRD!
