Uptown Theatre Honors 2021

The 6th Annual Uptown Theatre Honors will recognize honorees including Patty Ankrum, Janet Ault, Ann Booth, Barb Colehour, Dixie Collins and Karla Steffens.  The honors gala will include tribute speeches, live musical numbers, a photo opportunity and much more.

The annual Uptown Theatre Honors, Mount Vernon’s version of the Kennedy Center Honors, began five years ago through the fundraising team the A-Go-Gos. The 8-person fundraising group is responsible for raising $17,000 for the First Street Community Center Uptown Theatre through the 2013 “Frank Benesh Memorial Uptown Theatre Telethon A-Go-Go!” The group also organized 2014’s “Las Vegas Karaoke Bingo A-Go-Go” and 2015’s “Frank Benesh Memorial Save the Traver Tapes Telethon A-Go-Go!”
