For Theatre Development Fund (TDF) - the legendary non-profit dedicated to making the performing arts accessible to everyone - the annual "Costumes & Cocktails" gala is a vital lifeline. Partnering directly with TDF Executive Director Deeksha Gaur, I drive the visual narrative for this signature benefit held at TAO Downtown.

With over 500 prestigious guests, Broadway artists, and industry leaders in attendance, the evening raises crucial funds for TDF's community programs while celebrating theatrical design excellence through the TDF/Irene Sharaff Awards. Each year, I direct and capture the vibrant, high-fashion energy of the room, visually articulating the profound impact of TDF’s advocacy.
