The Capitol Theater

Sara Bareilles Supporting the Pace Women’s Justice Center

October 10, 2022 by The Inside Press

Last week on October 6, Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Sara Bareilles performed at the legendary Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY to commemorate three decades of Pace Women’s Justice Center (PWJC) protecting thousands of women and children.

The fundraising event’s title, Raising the Bar Benefit Concert, is a nod to PWJC’s commitment to increasing access to justice and providing free critical legal services to victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.

PWJC also presented Pam Kaufman, President and CEO of International Markets, Global Consumer Products & Experiences at Paramount Global, with its Making a Difference Award. Legendary music icon Darryl “DMC” McDaniels from Run DMC presented Pam with the award.

Following her recent run as “The Baker’s Wife” in the hit revival of “Into the Woods” on Broadway, Sara Bareilles’ music & lyrics gave voice to the difficult journey from victim to survivor for PWJC’s clients.

ABOUT THE CAPITOL THEATRE 

Designed by celebrated architect Thomas Lamb in 1926 and listed in The National Register of Historic Places, The Capitol Theatre is located 30 miles from NYC. The 2,000-capacity theater, known as “the original rock palace,” showcased legends such as Traffic, The Grateful Dead, Black Sabbath, Chuck Berry, David Bowie, Janis Joplin, Pink Floyd, and The Rolling Stones. Jerry Garcia called it one of his two favorite venues in the USA. In 2012, the theatre underwent a major renovation under the guidance of music entrepreneur Peter Shapiro. Since then, it has hosted major performers including Bob Dylan, Phil Lesh, Ringo Starr, Joan Baez, Skrillex, Bonnie Raitt, Snoop Dogg, Kacey Musgraves, The Strokes, Tom Petty, Cyndi Lauper, and Willie Nelson, as well as comedians like Kevin Hart and Amy Schumer. The New York Times raves: “A rock theater that looks and sounds as good as the Capitol is something to celebrate.” The Capitol’s inner-sanctum bar and music club, Garcia’s, was named for Jerry Garcia in partnership with his family. A venue of its own, Garcia’s showcases local artists and nationally touring acts across the musical spectrum.

About The Capitol Theatre:
Designed by celebrated architect Thomas Lamb in 1926 and listed in The National Register of Historic Places, the theatre is located approximately 30 miles from NYC, conveniently accessible by I-95 and only one block from the Port Chester Metro North train station.

The New York Times raved, “a rock theater that looks and sounds as good as the Capitol is something to celebrate,” while Billboard agreed that “the lavishly decorated theater–filled with mirrors, chandeliers and painstakingly restored detail–looks absolutely stunning, and sounds even better.”
