"Published artist" was recently added to the list of Tony Award-winner Sutton Foster's skills and accomplishments.

"In between recently getting married and performing her busy eight show per week schedule on the hit musical - The Drowsy Chaperone, Sutton Foster has created a series of four holiday cards to raise money for Broadway Cares / Equity Fights AIDS," state BC/EFA notes.

Foster has employed collage style to create holiday cards featuring snowmen in iconic scenes from four well known Broadway Shows (The Phantom of the Opera, Les Miserables, Wicked and The Drowsy Chaperone) and packaged them in boxes of 12 (three from each show) for $20. Her cards will be on sale in the lobby of the Marquis Theatre after each performance of The Drowsy Chaperone.

Foster isn't alone in her creative support of Broadway Cares / Equity Fights AIDS. Her co-star and Drowsy Chaperone co-creator, Bob Martin has written a special addendum to the smash musical's finale where he encourages audience members to donate to BC/EFA in character as The Man in Chair.

BC/EFA is the nation's leading industry-based, not-for-profit AIDS fundraising and grant making organization. BC/EFA is the on-going, committed response from the American Theatre community to an urgent worldwide health crisis. By drawing upon the talents, resources, and generosity of this community, BC/EFA raises funds for AIDS-related causes across the United States. Since its founding in 1988, BC/EFA has raised over $100 million for critically needed services for people with AIDS, HIV or HIV-related illnesses.
