The Duttons, Branson’s top-rated entertainment family, has always had a big heart for charity – particularly if it benefits children. On April 4th, the Duttons will be performing, along with MGM film legend Debbie Reynolds and others, at the OneHeart Gala at the Broadway Palm Dinner Theater in Mesa, Arizona.
This celebrity-laden charity event is a fundraising effort for Emma and Taylor Bailey and their foundation “Two Sisters – One Heart”, which helps families in similar circumstances. Emma and Taylor are two beautiful little girls who were born as conjoined twins. They share one heart and are in continual need of medical attention.
Aside from the evening’s food and entertainment, celebrities from theater, film, entertainment and sports have donated personalized, autographed umbrellas to be auctioned off to raise funds. The evening will include both a silent auction and a live online auction of the autographed umbrellas, from the likes of Debbie Reynolds,the rock band Chicago, Kevin Bacon, Branson’s own Jim Stafford, The Duttons and many others.
Although the Duttons have been performing in Mesa during the winter season, they actually open their 2009 season in Branson on April 2nd. According to marketing manager, Judith Dutton, “We’ll be in Branson for our shows on April 2nd and 3rd, then return to Mesa for the OneHeart Gala on the 4th, and be back in Branson the next week for our regular shows at The Dutton Theater. It’ll be a little hectic, but it’s worth it to help these two darling girls and other families dealing with similar issues.”
