Photo Coverage: Broadway Unites to Sniff Out Cancer at Joe's Pub!
Stars from Broadway's Hamilton, Wicked, Rent, The Book of Mormon, Chicago, Allegiance, Godspell, Sweet Charity, A Chorus Line, and some surprise celebrity special guests united last night for the first annual all-star benefit concert BROADWAY SNIFFS OUT CANCER. The show was presented at Joe's Pub at The Public Theater to raise money to train our canine friends to save lives, as well as honoring of the loved ones we've lost to cancer.
The show featured performances by: Telly Leung (In Transit, Allegiance, Rent), Lindsay Mendez (Wicked, Godspell, Significant Other), Rory O'Malley (Tony Award nominee, Hamilton, Book of Mormon), Jenna Ushkowitz (Glee, Waitress, Spring Awakening),Jenifer Foote (Holiday Inn, On the Twentieth Century), Tracy Jai Edwards (Ruthless, Legally Blonde), Alexis Carra (Sweet Charity, ABC-TV's "Mixology"), Jade Tailor (SyFy's "The Magicians"), Virginia Williams (Woodlawn, USA Network's "Fairly Legal") and Brianna Brown (Showtime's "Homeland," Lifetime TV's "Devious Maids").
Cancer is often detected at a stage where there is no cure. Early detection is the critical answer to saving lives. Did you know dogs can detect cancer earlier and with greater accuracy than any current testing? All proceeds from this year's BROADWAY SNIFFS OUT CANCER will go to InSitu Foundation Certification Program, a US-based not-for-profit that created the first medical protocol for the selection, training, and handling of the cancer detection dogs and their handlers; and Medical Detection Dogs, a UK-based not-for-profit dedicated to training cancer and bio detection dogs.
Those who cannot attend the event can make a tax-deductible donation atwww.BroadwaySniffsOutCancer.com.
