Monday, April 8 was a huge adventure on the high seas on the set of Under the Whaleback!

We were humbled to honor David Haas this year in recognition of his long support of the Wilma and of arts and culture in Philadelphia.

Mr. Haas says of the event, “When Blanka asked me to be the honoree, how could I say no? She brings adventurous, visionary leadership to the Wilma and continues to inspire (and sometimes provoke) with every production.  The Wilma is a vital cultural institution, recognized here in Philadelphia and nationally.  And their outreach into the community – in the Philadelphia public school system and the local community of independent artists – is critical to the health of our city.” 

The Theater Lovers Fête celebrated not only our artists, but also highlighted our strong support from the business and cultural communities.
