New Jersey’s Jesse Walker, host of the online celebrity show “The Jesse Walker Show,” in support of Project ALS, has announced a postponement of the special benefit virtual performance of the musical "Nice Work If You Can Get It" to honor the love and memory of the late Rebecca Luker. Due to a last-minute scheduling conflict and cast change, the live virtual special benefit concert originally announced to take place on September 28, 2021, has been rescheduled for Friday Dec 17, 2021 at 8:00PM EST. Hosted by Judy Kaye, the new cast will feature Jesse Walker as Jimmy Winter, Ricky DeRosa as Cookie McGee, and Dinanda Klaassen as Billie Bendix, with Estelle Balsirow as Duchess Estonia Dulworth, Helene Ciappetta as Millicent Winter, Lola Maltz as Jeannie Muldoon, and Haley Rice as Eileen Evergreen. Additional casting will be announced shortly. "Nice Work If You Can Get It" features songs by George and Ira Gershwin, with a book written by Joe DiPietro, based on material by Guy Bolton and P.G. Wodehouse. Donations may be made by visiting fundraise.projectals.org/give/351504/#!/donation/checkout. All proceeds from the event will go to benefit and support Project ALS therapeutics research.
