CSS has been supporting the Theatergala since 1994. This is a charity event in aid of families in the region who are experiencing hardship. The gala is a fixture on the cultural and social calendar of the city of Lucerne, and one of its most important events. Donations of well over a million francs have been collected since its launch.
The 26th CSS Theatergala took place on 25 October. This year, a Swiss classic was performed: “Der Besuch der alten Dame” (The Visit). Philomena Colatrella was able to hand a cheque for CHF 60,785 to Caritas Lucerne to support needy families in the Canton of Lucerne.
The next Theatergala will be held on Friday, 30 October 2020.
