The Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation's Fall Theater Benefit was held on Thursday, November 16, 2023, and featured a performance of Gutenberg! The Musical!, a two-man musical comedy starring Tony Award nominees Josh Gad and Andrew Rannells, who reunited on Broadway for the first time since sharing the stage in The Book of Mormon more than a decade ago.
Guests had the opportunity to meet several Damon Runyon scientists at our pre-theater reception and heard firsthand how their support can help achieve breakthroughs in how we diagnose, treat, and prevent all forms of cancer.
For more information regarding our Theater Benefits, please contact Kim Kubert, Senior Director of Special Events, at kim.kubert@damonrunyon.org or 212.455.0501.

The Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation is thrilled to announce a new partnership with the Timmerman Traverse, an adventurous initiative that brings leaders and investors in biotech together to scale extraordinary physical—and philanthropic—heights. Biotech journalist, entrepreneur, and mountaineer Luke Timmerman will lead a team of 20 scientific luminaries who will hike to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, Africa’s tallest mountain, while aiming to raise at least $1 million to benefit Damon Runyon cancer researchers.
To learn how you can support the team or an individual climber, please visit the 2024 Timmerman Traverse site here, or contact Kim Kubert, Senior Director of Special Events, at kim.kubert@damonrunyon.org.
