benefit shows
Fundraising theatrical events
Benefit shows are performances—concerts, comedy nights, theatrical productions—staged to raise money for a cause, charity, or person in need.
The proceeds from ticket sales and donations go to the beneficiary rather than the performers: Local bands played a benefit show for the family after the fire.
Also called benefit concerts or simply benefits.
