Bobby Cronin Joins VILLAIN: DEBLANKS Benefit for St. Jude at Joe's Pub

(VERB)____ until your sides hurt on Sunday, May 17th at Joe's Pub, where Villain: DeBlanks will be performed to benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.

Award-winning composer Bobby Cronin (Daybreak, (un)Lucky in Love), joins previously announced Tony-winner Beth Leavel (The Drowsy Chaperone, Elf), Tony nominee Brenda Braxton (Smokey Joe's, Chicago), Jordan Roth (President of Jujamcyn Theaters), and People magazine's "Most Playful Performers" The Skivvies (Lauren Molina & Nick Cearley) in this unmissable one-night-only event with 100% ticket proceeds benefiting St. Jude.

A Time Out NY Critics' Pick written by Billy Mitchell, Villain: DeBlanks is an uproarious fundraiser where the cast says words you put in their mouths! The audience provides nouns, adjectives, desserts and body parts, and the actors provide the laughs -- uncensored and unrehearsed -- as they enact the story of Philip DeBlanks' untimely demise. It's "Clue" meets adult "Mad Libs," performed by some of the funniest people in New York. Like a ride to summer camp in the back of a station wagon, this hilarious performance will be ridiculously one-of-a-kind.

What does each ticket sale do? Every $38 ticket purchased will pay for one family's meals for a day. Three tickets will cover the cost of two patients' platelet count tests. If the event sells out, we will make enough to pay for 7 days of vital chemotherapy treatment. (VERB)_____ your tickets now!

Villain: DeBlanks benefit for St. Jude will play Joe's Pub (425 Lafayette St., NYC) on Sunday, May 17. Doors: 6pm, Show: 7pm. Cover charge is $28.00-$38.00 and there is a $12 food and beverage minimum.
