The Foundation for Mott Community College proudly presented the 18th installment of its beloved community celebration, embracing the theme “The Legacy of Legends.” This year’s show featured fan-favorite performers from years past, including Dr. Sunita Tummala, local neurologist; Pat Hill, Costume Designer for The New McCree Theatre; Harold Hill, Operations Manager for the Greater Flint Arts Council and Bruce Bradley, CEO of Tapology. Cherisse Bradley once again brought her creative flair to the production as lead choreographer and director.
Adding a new layer to the experience, the Foundation spotlighted the College’s Culinary Arts Program with a delicious pre-show dinner at the MCC Culinary Arts Institute. The evening wrapped up with a lively after-party in the Black Box on the Capitol’s lower level, where cast, crew and guests mingled and celebrated.
Returning as charismatic co-emcees were Dr. Tonya Bailey, Co-pastor at Hand to God Ministries and owner of BeBe’s Boutique, and David Smith, local author and retired vice president of Skaff Carpet & Furniture Co. This year’s event was made possible by the generous support of numerous contributors, with major sponsorship from the Flint Institute of Music. The pre-show dinner was funded by a grant from the Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, aimed at introducing new audiences to the exceptional opportunities offered by MCC’s Culinary Arts Program.
“The Legacy of Legends” served up an unforgettable night of talent, taste and togetherness – leaving guests already buzzing about next year’s encore!
