WINTER GARDEN Tap dancing, comedy, singing and storytelling were just a few of the awe-striking acts on the agenda Tuesday, March 5, during the “Get Your Harts On!” fundraiser for actor Michael Hartson. Held at the Garden Theatre, the event’s proceeds went directly to Hartson, who is battling pancreatic cancer. Hartson most recently played Herbie in the Garden Theatre’s fall 2018 production of “Gypsy.” Fundraiser attendees could grab snacks, bid on wonderful silent-auction items and enjoy a variety of entertaining acts as part of the show.
