Celebrities will step on stage for a one-night benefit concert to raise funds for Victor Rodriguez and his family. Rodriguez survived a tragic accident on his Bahamas honeymoon June 16 when the parasailing harnesses he and his wife were wearing snapped mid-air. The couple plunged to the water below; Victor survived the fall and spent time recovering in the hospital. His wife of 12-days, Crystal, did not.
The heartbreaking story caught media attention nationally and internationally. The story reached Pasadena, near Los Angeles, and a benefit concert is now planned. The “Concert for Victor” will take place at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 13 at the Carrie Hamilton Theatre at The Pasadena Playhouse. Broadway stars like Melora Hardin of “The Office” and Broadway’s “Chicago,” Steven Weber of “Wings” and Broadway’s “The Producers” and Anneliese van der Pol of “That’s So Raven” and Broadway’s “Beauty and the Beast” will perform in the concert.
