The Palace Theatre in Albany announced today that the May 9 Sandy Hackett’s Rat Pack Show raised $58,000 for the nonprofit Palace Performing Arts Center, which operates the iconic landmark in downtown Albany.

“As a non-profit arts organization, we rely on the enthusiasm of the local community to sustain our growth and success,” said Palace Theatre Executive Director Holly Brown in a  written statement that set the attendance at the event at 1,500 people. “We are delighted by the outpouring of support from our generous community members as we continue to bring interesting and exciting events to the Palace Theatre.”

For the second consecutive year, the Palace said it is on pace to record a surplus.
