Cast of GREY’S & PRIVATE PRACTICE Together in Song

The strike might be over but the cast of GREY’S ANATOMY and PRIVATE PRACTICE aren’t forgetting about their our of work crew. The casts of both shows are coming together for a live performance in “an unforgettable evening of laughter and song to benefit crew members who were affected by the strike.”

The creator of both shows, Shonda Rhimes, just made the announcement on GreysWriters.com (which is finally back up and running.

Because while the strike is over, it will be months before many crew members are back to work. Millions of dollars in income were lost. Many crew members are suffering. And we want to do anything we can to help out.

So:

FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY, February 29, 2008 at UCLA’s Royce Hall in Los Angeles, CA we are presenting GOOD MEDICINE. A little singing, a little funny, a lot of raising money.

Come on out and join the casts of Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice. See TR KNIGHT SING! Hear Tony Winners Audra MacDonald and Sara Ramirez! See Katie and Kate! See Ellen and Sandra! SEE THEM ALL! CAUSE THEY WANNA SEE YOU! And help raise some money to help others!

Tickets are $85. You can buy them on Ticketmaster.com or call the UCLA Central Ticket Office at 310-825-2101. Tickets are going to go fast and you don’t want to miss this one time event.

What I would give to be there that night.  I mean to see Sara and Audra alone.  Oh and don’t forget about Taye Diggs, whom you may recall originated the role of Benny in the original Broadway production of RENT.  These casts have some talent.  And the rest of them…well, it will be pretty funny to see what they can pull off.

If you’re in the LA area and are planning on going, why don’t you cover the event for GMMR?  If you’re interested, let me know.

    Me and a friend of mine had a long talk one night several months back about wanting a musical episode of Private Practice. Nearly every single cast member has musical ability. Audra and Taye Diggs, of course. Paul Adelstein is the singer of a pretty awesome band. Chris Lowell also has a band. We assumed Kate Walsh and Tim Daly could probably sing because they are classically trained theatre actors. I guess this is as close as we’re going to get to our dream of Musical Private Practice. Too bad I can’t go. Hopefully it’ll be posted on YouTube.

    I guess that’s the punishment for living on the East Coast. That’s a nice thing to do for the crews, really. And it would probably be equally entertaining and scary.

    Although I’m not an avid Greys fan, I think that is great thing they are doing. Our favorite shows would not be as good without the cast and crew!

    Perhaps this is nitpicky but why would they sell tickets through ticketmaster for a fundraiser? Ticketmaster is notorious for skimming a large percentage money from ticket sales.

    I’ve been saying for quite some time that Grey’s needs to do a musical episode. Man, that would rock.
