Friends In Deed presented Charles Busch and Lypsinka, with Lisa Estridge stepping in at the last minute for an ill Whoopi Goldberg, in the first-ever New York presentation of the infamous Broadway-play-that-wasn't, LEGENDS!. Written by Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winner James Kirkwood ("A Chorus Line"), the play was presented in a special One Night Only staged reading benefit on Monday evening, March 23 at 8PM at Town Hall (123 West 43rd Street).

Directed by Mark Waldrop, the presentation featured a script that was adapted for this reading by John Epperson. Also starring Bryan Batt ("Mad Men") with Dashaun Young ("The Lion King"), Todd DuBail, narration by Fran Lebowitz and surprise appearances by Tony winner Christine Ebersole and NY-1 News' Donna Karger and Roma Torre, the special event was a benefit for Friends In Deed - The Crisis Center for Life-Threatening IllnessTM.
