A DVD of the sold-out concert The Leading Men, which was held on May 30th at Joe's Pub, will go on
sale at the Sept. 25 Broadway Flea Market in Shubert Alley.
Hosted by John Tartaglia (Avenue Q), the Broadway Cares/Equity Fights
AIDS benefit showcased top male performers from Broadway and cabaret who have
been featured in Wayman Wong's 'The Leading
Men' column at Playbill.com. The stellar line-up consisted of
Tom Andersen, Scott Coulter, Tom D'Angora (Divas I've Done), Tim Di Pasqua, Brian and Ted
Farley, Barrett Foa (Avenue Q), Cheyenne Jackson (All Shook Up), Chad Kimball (Good Vibrations), Matthew Morrison (The Light in the Piazza), Jai
Rodriguez (Zanna, Don't!), Christopher Sieber (Chicago), Ben Strothmann and Max von Essen (Dance of the Vampires). The evening was
directed by Alan Muraoka, choreographed by Jamie Harris and music-directed by
Seth Rudetsky.John Hoglund of BackStage wrote The Leading Men was 'a hugely successful evening and all
the performers gave an impressive 110%. Let's hear it for the
boys!' And Michael Dale of BroadwayWorld.com called the show
'a wildly entertaining boys' night out. … With the
sellout crowd leaving Joe's Pub all smiles, there's no doubt that The Leading Men II will certainly be required in the near future.'
The Leading Men DVD will be sold
alongside other Broadway Cares favorites such as Broadway Bares, The Easter Bonnet Competition, Gypsy of the Year and There Is Nothing Like a Dame. Produced by Applause Video, the DVDs are $25
apiece, and all proceeds go to BC/EFA. Visit www.broadwaycares.org for more information.
