A tentative agreement to end the Broadway stagehands strike was reached Wednesday, and now next month, several Broadway performers will be on-stage in southeast Iowa.

The city of Fairfield welcomes seven of Broadway’s biggest stars for the grand opening of the Fairfield Arts & Convention Center and the Stephen Sondheim Center for the Performing Arts the second weekend in December.

Each of the stars performing in the Gala has a strong connection to the works of Stephen Sondheim, though this is the first time they will be performing together. The world-renowned performers headlining the Gala are Liz Callaway, Len Cariou, Donna Lynne Champlin, Kristin Huffman, Richard Kind, David Malis and Pamela Myers. The Grand Opening Gala will be held December 7th through the 9th.
