It’s our privilege to thank you for joining us today. Ruth Eckerd Hall is so much more than what you see on stage. The Marcia P. Hoffman School of the Arts at Ruth Eckerd Hall serves more than 35,000 students annually, provides performing arts education in 12 local schools expanding to 20 in 2017 and hosts 15,000 kids for free performances right here on the Main Stage. This building hosts more than 1,000 events every year – from superior concerts to weddings to corporate retreats to graduations – and our activities provide a boost to the regional economy. By being here today, you are a part of a grand tradition. You are helping to change lives through performing arts. We thank you. With your help, we will continue to strive to help more kids, to be of greater service to our community and to present the very best performances available anywhere in the world. There is no other theater organization in the world with our number of seats that sells more tickets than Ruth Eckerd Hall, which means there’s no better audience anywhere in the world than the one right here in Tampa Bay.
