LAS VEGAS (Sept. 12, 2018) – This fall, Wynn Las Vegas will join forces with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Southern Nevada (LLS) for a first-time partnership that includes sponsorship of the LLS’ Light The Night walk on Saturday, Nov. 3 and a one-night-only benefit performance of Wynn’s signature award-winning production Le Rêve – The Dream on Sunday, Nov. 4. Wynn Las Vegas and Le Rêve – The Dream have committed to a donation of more than 1,500 tickets to the organization to sell for the 7 p.m. performance that Sunday, with all proceeds from the specially priced tickets benefitting LLS. To purchase tickets, visit www.crowdrise.com/le-reve-lls.

“The idea to partner with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society stems from impactful experiences that several members of our team, and my own family, have had with cancer,” said Rick Gray, general manager of entertainment operations for Wynn Las Vegas. “We are privileged to show support for this essential organization and their life-changing programs. LLS does such important work and it is a true honor to contribute to their overall mission. Hopefully this takes us one step closer to saving a life.” 

 

Standard seating for the Nov. 4 performance will be available for $100 per ticket, and VIP seating will be available for $200 per ticket. In conjunction with the benefit performance, special hotel and VIP packages will also be available for purchase. For more information, visit www.crowdrise.com/le-reve-lls. Children ages five years or older are welcome.

“Words can’t express how deeply honored we are to be involved with this partnership of unprecedented magnitude,” said Elizabeth Muto Hunterton, executive director of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.  “We’ve been moved by Wynn Las Vegas’ commitment and compassion, and impressed by their team’s consistent standard of excellence in all they do.  This incredible generosity will inevitably help advance our fight against cancer, while touching the lives and providing hope to countless local patients and families.”

The mission of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families.  LLS’ Light The Night Walk funds treatments that are saving the lives of patients today by providing patient support services, advocating for lifesaving treatments and pioneering the most promising cancer research anywhere.  All proceeds from the Nov. 4 performance will benefit programming and services provided by the Southern Nevada Chapter of the LLS.
