Support The Buddy Program and enjoy an intimate evening with Rufus Wainwright. Endearingly referred to by Elton John as “the greatest songwriter on the planet” and applauded by the New York Times for his “genuine originality”, Wainwright is considered one of the greatest male vocalists and songwriters of his generation. While his music has been compared to Beck, Damien Rice and Jeff Buckley, Wainwright’s sound is one-of-a-kind. As much theatrical, ornate and operatic as it is power-pop, Wainwright has an exceptional command of melody and lyrical nuance.
VIP Individual Tickets are available for $400 (includes pre-show VIP Dinner, cocktail reception and a seat in the exclusive reserved section)
VIP Tables for 6 are available for $2,500 (includes table for 6 in the exclusive reserved section, pre-show VIP dinner and cocktail reception)
