Additional celebrity guests included inspiring Marine-turned-model Alex Minsky and recent "RuPaul's Drag Race" season six winner Bianca Del Rio.

Broadway Bares was created by Tony Award-winner Jerry Mitchell (Kinky Boots), who also serves as executive producer. It is produced by Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, led by Producing Director Michael Graziano. This year's edition is directed by Nick Kenkel (Catch Me If You Can, Peepshow, Legally Blonde), who also directed last year's Broadway Bares: United Strips of America.

Broadway Bares combines the naughtiness of burlesque with the razzle-dazzle ofBroadway and has been a smashing success since its inception in 1992. The event, featuring the hottest male and female dancers on Broadway, has become one of BC/EFA's signature events. The first Broadway Bares featured just seven dancers performing choreographed stripteases on a bar and raised more than $8,000. Through 23 editions, Broadway Bares has raised more than $11.3 million forBroadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.
