Can we discuss today's event without getting the thread deleted?
In addition to the most beautiful dancers--male and female--taking off their clothes for charity, tonight's show will feature a fun array of guest stars, each a reason to attend him- or herself:
Charles Busch, Kristin Chenoweth Alan Cumming Lea DeLaria Felicia Finley Katie Finneran Debbie Gravitte Julie Halston Jackie Hoffman Jane Krakowski Sebastian LaCause Reichen Lehmkuhl Norm Lewis Lucy Liu Julia Murney Christopher Sieber Bruce Vilanch Lillias White Vanessa Williams
This year's goal: to raise $1 million for Broadway Carees/Equity Fights AIDS, which is of course major supporter of seven programs at The Actors’ Fund: The AIDS Initiative, The Phyllis Newman Women’s Health Initiative, The Al Hirschfeld Free Health Clinic, The Dancers’ Resource and three supportive housing residences.
Here's a video preview on the local Fox news channel:
shira, dress light -- it gets quite crowded and hot inside! I'd recommend shorts.
I'm skipping this year. I've gone three times and decided to take a break, but you guys who are going (especially the virgins) have a blast! Updated On: 6/20/10 at 06:42 PM
The guest stars: Euan Morton singing the opening number with Vanessa Williams and Kristen Chenoweth and Katie Fineran and Jackie Hoffman being funny.
* The Jail number--with Sebastian La Cause as the Warden)
* The Waterworks number--set in the locker room and featuring, well, watersports, first on the utterly adorable Matthew Skrincovsky and then on the audience
* The Boardwalk number, featuring the staggeringly beautiful John Carroll as The Situation and a bunch of very sexy guidos and Joisey gals
* The Hotel number, witb this year's Mr Perfect, Charlie Williams, trying to provide enough towels to some very de-MAN-ding ladies, and losing all his clothes in doing so.
Just got back from the midnight show. Katie Finneran and Jackie Hoffman stole the show. (As though people should be shocked). Choreography-wise, I thought the Shut Up and Drive number and the Jersey Shore number were the best. Updated On: 6/21/10 at 02:53 AM
