Rollins College will honor the late Kevin Gray

The Annie Russell Theatre and Department of Theatre and Dance at Rollins College will present a special service honoring Kevin Gray and his contributions to Rollins College.

The nondenominational event will be at 11 a.m. Saturday, March 16, in the Annie Russell Theatre on Rollins' Winter Park Campus.

Gray, a visiting-artist professor at Rollins from 2009-2011, died Feb. 11 in Connecticut, where he was an associate professor of theater for the Hartt School.

At the Rollins event, members and alumni of the Rollins community will perform songs in honor of Gray, as well as share memories of friendship and artistry. The public is invited.

While at Rollins, Gray directed the Annie Russell productions of "Cabaret" and "Grease," and the Department of Music's opera "Hansel and Gretel." He taught several musical-theater classes, as well.

As an actor, Gray was best known for starring as the title character in "The Phantom of the Opera."

In lieu of flowers, donations be made in his name to The Connecticut Dance School, 42 Halley Court, Fairfield CT 06825; or the Pet Animal Welfare Society (PAWS), 504 Main Ave., Norwalk CT 06851.

The Annie Russell Theatre is located on Rollins College campus, 1000 Holt Ave., Winter Park. Free parking for this event will be provided in the SunTrust Parking Garage near the corner of Park and Lyman avenues.
