National Asian Artists Project (Baayork Lee, Executive Artistic Director), will celebrate its 5th Anniversary of "showcasing the work of Asian-American theatre artists through performance, outreach and educational programming" on Monday, October 5th at 8pm at NYU Skirball Center for the Performing Arts (566 LaGuardia Place) with Past, Present & Future, a one-night-only Gala Benefit evening featuring a line-up of show-stopping wall-to-wall musical numbers from Broadway shows, highlights from past NAAP productions and current material, as well as what Ms. Lee hopes to stage in the future. Below, check out the latest "singularly sensational" promotional video exclusive to BroadwayWorld!

With a cast of over one hundred supervised by Ms. Lee and acclaimed director Richard Jay-Alexander, the evening will feature seasoned Broadway professionals -- friends and supporters of NAAP -- staging many of the numbers, including "Food, Glorious Food!" from Oliver, "Getting to Know You" from The King and I, "Hey, Big Spender" from Sweet Charity (staged by Diana Laurenson and starring Margo Sappington), "We're in the Money" from 42nd Street (staged by Lee Roy Reams), "One Day More" from Les Miserables (staged by Richard Jay-Alexander), "You'll Never Walk Alone" from Carousel, and many, many, more!

With a full orchestra led by Broadway musical supervisor and conductor Kevin Stites and lighting & sound design by Matt Berman, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to support this worthy company as they head into the future. To see established Broadway stars and the young members of NAAP "side-by-side" is sure to be a night to remember.
