On Monday, October 29 at 7PM, comedienne Joy Behar (ABC's "The View") and Tony nominee Christopher Sieber (Spamalot) co-hosted the second yearly edition of "An Intimate Salon," a private benefit event for Broadway Cares / Equity Fights AIDS (BC/EFA).
This year's BC/EFA 'Salon' offered party-goers the opportunity to rub elbows some of Broadway, TV, and the recording industry's brightest and fastest rising stars; including TV and Broadway Legend Lucie Arnaz, Emmy nominated actress and singer Bobbie Eakes (ABC's 'All My Children'), Norm Lewis (Disney's The Little Mermaid), Jose Llana (Spelling Bee), rising TV star Julian Ovenden (ABC's 'Cashmere Mafia'), and Broadway's favorite piano man and raconteur Seth Rudetsky (The Ritz).
Guests at "An Intimate Salon" had a rare and exclusive sneak peek performance of The Three Graces, Decca / Universal's new opera/pop/broadway recording group featuring Joy Kabanuck (Baz Luhrmann's La Boheme), Kelly Levesque (Andrea Bocelli US tour), and Sara Gettelfinger (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels).
"An Intimate Salon" was held on Central Park South at the extraordinary residence of Ron Pobuda, the president and founder of National Audio Video Inc, and an award winning producer/director with over 35 years of broadcasting experience and video programming, including a successful tenure with NBC radio in New York.
