2020AE-ProgramAd-EmbassyMarqueeEvent.indd 1 7/27/20 9:50 AM A Message from Kelly Updike Embassy President & CEO

Welcome to the Embassy’s fourth annual Marquee Gala presented by Mark Ulmschneider & Georgia Wralstad Ulmschneider. It is an honor to welcome Adam Pascal to the Embassy stage. Our team is committed to bringing meaningful Broadway experiences to you, even during this challenging year.

With the support of Embassy members, sponsors and donors we continue to present the very best Broadway talent and shows to theater fans of all generations. Please consider making a tax-deductible gift to assist the Embassy in growing audiences across our region and improving the quality of arts experiences in Northeast Indiana. We especially appreciate your support during 2020 as we navigate this time with our Raise the Curtain campaign, which aims to recover losses due to COVID-19.

Enjoy tonight’s once-in-a-lifetime performance. We know that performing arts experiences can help us heal. Thank you for being a part of this evening’s fundraising event. The Embassy team believes this magical evening will bring you joy and hope. Adam Pascal
