Bob Martin Heads to Seth's Broadway Chatterbox, 7/20

Bob Martin, who received a Tony nomination for his performance as The Drowsy Chaperone's musicals-obsessed Man in Chair and who won for co-writing that show's book, will chat with host Seth Rudetsky at "Seth's Broadway Chatterbox" on July 20th.

The weekly chat show, a Broadway institution for some years, features Broadway stars confiding stories to Rudetsky at Don't Tell Mama on Thursdays at 6 PM. The $10 donation benefits Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the nation's leading industry-based, not-for-profit AIDS fundraising and grant-making organization.

In addition to his Best Book of a Musical Tony for The Drowsy Chaperone (shared with Don McKellar), Martin won a Drama Desk Award in the same category.  A native of Canada, his theatre credits there include  An Awkward Evening with Martin and Johnson, The Good Life and Old Wine, New Bottles.  He served as writer and creative producer for the Canadian TV series "Slings and Arrows."

A man of many talents, Rudetsky has teamed up with The Actor's Fund as Artistic Producer, conductor and musical director on star-studded productions of Hair, Chess, Funny Girl and the Dreamgirls 20th Anniversary Concert, and most recently, On the Twentieth Century.  His hit show Rhapsody in Seth, was nominated for a GLAAD Award.  As a pit pianist and conductor, Rudetsky has leant his talents to over 15 Broadway shows, including 42nd Street, The Full Monty, Phantom of the Opera, Mamma Mia! and The Producers. Rudetsky was part of the three-time Emmy-nominated comedy writing team for The Rosie O'Donnell Show and wrote the lyrics and opening numbers of the 1998 and 2000 Tony Awards shows.  He can be heard everyday as a deejay on SIRIUS Satellite Radio.

In addition to the $10 donation, a two-drink minimum is required.

Don't Tell Mama is located in New York City on West 46th Street, between Eighth and Ninth Avenues. For reservations, call (212) 757-0788.
