On Monday night, MCC Theater presented its annual Miscast gala, where Broadway's hottest stars performed songs from roles in which they would never be cast.

Watch Hamilton veteran and Tony nominee Christopher Jackson take on "Listen" from Dreamgirls in the video!

This year's performers included: Tony Award winners Annaleigh Ashford, Gavin Creel, Beth Leavel, Kelli O'Hara, Karen Olivo, and Billy Porter, Tony Award nominees Stephanie J. Block, Joshua Henry, Andy Karl, Taylor Louderman, Orfeh, and Ashley Park; as well as Grammy Award winner Jennifer Nettles, Kate Rockwell, and Barrett Wilbert Weed.

Proceeds from Miscast 2019 will support MCC Theater's mission to develop and produce exciting work Off-Broadway, as well as its Youth Company and partnerships with New York City public high schools, and MCC's literary development work with emerging playwrights.
