Tony and Olivier winner Alan Cumming has announced his return to the New York cabaret stage in support of Congressional candidate Suraj Patel. The concert will be held April 11.
“It's great to be back performing in New York City, my second home, and I am delighted to be supporting Suraj Patel in his run for Congress," says Cumming. "Suraj is a great candidate and he upholds the values that I also hold dear: he fights against injustice,
he calls out the corrupt, and he cares for those less fortunate than himself."
Suraj Patel is an attorney, activist, business leader, and lecturer who worked on both of President Barack Obama's campaigns, in addition to serving as an associate on the White House Advance Team. Following the 2016 election, he became a full-time organizer, serving as a volunteer attorney for the ACLU in resistance of the Trump Administration's Muslim Ban.
