New York University graduate student Andrea Watson has teamed up with general manager Bailie Slevin of Halo Askew Entertainment to put on a benefit concert April 28th to raise money for The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society in conjunction with their upcoming half marathon run. The benefit, "Do What You Can" is about every person contributing in their own way to the cause.

Many Broadway and Off-Broadway performers have lent their talent to this worthy cause including our musical director Matt Hinkley, currently conducting ROOMS at New World Stages.

Other performers include:
Jennifer Babiak (Broadway's Fiddler On The Roof), Brad Bass (Broadway's Wicked), Danny Beiruti (North American Tour of Cats), Kevin Haden, Robyn Elizabeth Lee, Peter Horn, Michelle Pruiett (Broadway's The Little Mermaid), and Andrea Watson (who is running the marathon for LLS).

The evening will be hosted by stand-up comic Raquel D'Apice, recently seen at Stand Up New York, Gotham Comedy Club, and on MTV.

The benefit will take place at The Duplex Cabaret (61 Christopher Street) Tuesday April 28th at 9:30pm. Cover charge is $10 with a reservation, $15 at the door and a 2 drink minimum. To make reservations go to TheDuplex.com and click on the calendar.
