On March 14th, 2025, the Center for Theater Arts celebrated over 45 years of building courage through theater at our annual gala, One Night Only.  Featuring legendary showman Jim Caruso with Billy Stritch on piano, the evening showcased unforgettable vocal performances from our CTA community, past and present. The CTA Showstoppers kicked off the show, and our 2025 high school musical cast of PIPPIN dazzled before a magical performance from our Special Actors’ Musical Theater program.  All lifted their voices to raise much-needed funds for students of ALL ABILITIES!!! This unforgettable evening was very impACTful and – our heARTs are full.

Talk about a FUNdraiser!!! This ONE NIGHT ONLY record-breaking event was LIVE FROM CARNEGIE MUSIC HALL— and we were joined on stage by our incredible CTA alumni, current students, and the warm and friendly talents of Jim Caruso with Billy Stritch on piano. Everyone was amaSING!

I thank them ALL — for their trust, impact, JOY, their heARTistry and their LOVE! We all had a role to play, and together, we set the STAGE for success.

Because of you, we are here!
