In-keeping with their series of "Extraordinary EBay" packages, Broadway Cares / Equity Fights AIDS (BC/EFA) is proud to announce an online auction item some fans have been waiting eight years for!

Join Tony Award® nominee Malcolm Gets and Will Chase at the opening night of The Story of My Life, the first new Broadway musical of 2009. The producers of this intimate theatrical experience have donated a pair of prime seats along with two passes to the star studded opening night party at New York's legendary Sardi's restaurant with the proceeds to benefit Broadway Cares / Equity Fights AIDS.  

Directed by Tony Award® winner Richard Maltby, Jr. (Ain't Misbehavin, Miss Saigon), The Story of My Life is a profoundly funny and deeply moving tale of lifelong best friends, Thomas and Alvin (Will Chase and Malcolm Gets).  It's a musical about friendship, the personal cost of success and the choices we make at the turning points in our lives.

The winning bidder and a guest will receive the following: A pair of VIP tickets to the opening night of The Story of My Life on Thursday February 19th, 7:30PM at the Booth Theatre; two passes to the opening night party at Sardi's immediately following the performance; and a 14"x22" window card signed by the cast.

"Extraordinary EBay" is an online fundraising initiative started by BC/EFA in August 2008 geared at providing "once in a lifetime" theatrical experiences and extremely rare one-of-a-kind items to the highest bidder. Past "Extraordinary EBay" packages have included "Opening Night with Will Ferrell on Broadway", "Tickets to the final performance of RENT on Broadway", "Opening Night tickets and party passes for LIZA's at the Palace" and "VIP tickets to the inaugural taping of "Rosie Live". To keep abreast of new Extraordinary EBay packages, interested bidders should regularly visit the BC/EFA website - www.broadwaycares.org.

Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS is the nation's leading industry-based, nonprofit AIDS fundraising and grants making organization.  By drawing upon the talents, resources and generosity of the American theatre community, BC/EFA raises funds for AIDS-related causes across the United States.  Since its founding in 1988, BC/EFA has raised over $150 million dollars for critically needed services for people with AIDS and other serious illnesses.
