After last year’s sold out night at World Cafe Live – we once again close out #PhillyLovesBowie week with A Night of Stardust – capping off a week of love and celebration for David Bowie! Last year we sold out World Cafe Live (600+) so this year we’ve moved to Union Transfer where we can double the space for attendance! Net proceeds from the concert will benefit the Cancer Center at CHOP.
Just like last year, the cast for A Night of Stardust is amazing, featuring local vocal performances by some of your favorites – and music and vocal direction by Dan Kauffman and Lance Davis.
Main Light is sponsoring the event with amazing light show fit for a true Bowie experience. Gregory Shelton and Gable Music Ventures are extremely excited to bring this event to Philadelphia. Doors open at 6:30pm – show begins at 7:30pm – be sure to arrive early as we will be hosting a silent auction in the Union Transfer lobby and get a Bowie Bolt painted on your face, body – wherever! 100% of the proceeds from the silent auction and face painting will also go to the BOWIE/CHOP fund!
