Just last month, the Broadway community came together with Project ALS at City Winery NYC for An Evening with Aaron Lazar – a night of music, laughter, and inspiration to benefit Project ALS research. Hosted by Grammy winner and Tony-nominated actor Andrew Rannells, the evening featured performances by Sara Bareilles, Kate Baldwin, Loren Allred, Brian Stokes Mitchell, and many more.
ALS is an aggressive and terminal disease that results in a person progressively losing the ability to walk, speak, swallow, and breathe. Project ALS identifies and funds the most promising scientific research that will lead to the first effective treatments and a cure for ALS. Be a part of a night that will push research forward.
An award-winning actor, singer, and motivational speaker, Aaron Lazar has built a storied career with over two decades of experience on stage and screen. From the venerable theaters of Broadway to working with some of Hollywood’s most respected directors including Martin Scorsese and the Russo Brothers, Aaron’s ability to captivate audiences is proven and compelling.
His speaking platform The Impossible Dream helps raise awareness to end ALS. With a successful launch in the fall of 2023, Aaron now brings his impactful story to audiences around the country including: a conference of the country’s top neurosurgeons, global pharmaceutical companies, the world’s biggest biotech conference, and the students and faculty of Duke University, Aaron’s alma mater.
Just yesterday, Lazar received a Grammy nomination for his album, Impossible Dream, and we’re celebrating by sharing exclusive highlights from the special evening. In this video, check out clips of “I’d Give It All for You,” “Brave,” “You Matter to Me,” “When You Believe,” and more.
