“Initially, Signature’s outstanding theatrical productions were reason enough for me to support its innovative and unique celebration of the playwright. When I learned about Signature’s Ticket Initiative, which brings world-class theatre within reach of every community in New York, I knew I had to make a serious commitment to help.
