Places! The Kristin Chenoweth Tour Experience
Educational Workshop and Professional Training

I created this original and mutually beneficial initiative integrating client's nonprofit and her current projects.
Forming a cross-functional collaboration with client’s nonprofit for arts education and her touring company, I conceived this concert segment to be an educational workshop/once-in-a-lifetime experience where select music students from local conservatories, universities, and colleges perform onstage with Kristin Chenoweth during her concert tour. Students have a private coaching with the Music Director and Chenoweth prior to the rehearsal and live performance, plus they get a rare and intimate backstage view of the inner workings of a professional concert tour. Workshop fees support the Kristin Chenoweth Arts and Education Fund.
Consistently the biggest show-stopping element of the show, ”Places!” has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Ms. Chenoweth’s nonprofit, has provided national awareness of the organization and its mission, and has contributed to Ms. Chenoweth's reputation as a proponent for arts integration into the US public school system.
