LAByrinth Theater Company (John Ortiz, Artistic Director; Philip Seymour Hoffman, Co-Artistic Director; John Gould Rubin, Co-Artistic & Executive Director) entered the arena of power chords and monster riffs to present the sixth annual benefit featuring Celebrity Charades. This year's event was a battle of the bands, invoking the theme "We Will Rock You" at concert venue Terminal 5 (610 West 56th Street, at 11th Avenue).

Ugly Betty star Ana Ortiz trained long and hard for her chance to join the 'battle', her journey to the arena was documented right here on BWW in a series of video segments which you can view by clicking the links below! We checked in with her right before she entered the star-studded charade zone to make sure she was 'ready to rock'!

Four teams of celebrities thrashed it out for 90 minutes in three fearless sets of speed-charades. Referee Eric Bogosian presided over the Charades while, between games, John Patrick Shanley hosted a live auction, featuring LAByrinth's unique money-can't-buy experiences - including a chance to play Charades with the celebrities.

All proceeds benefited LAByrinth Theater Company's 17th season in 2008/09 season, hosted by The Public Theater. More information is available at LABtheater.org.
