San Francisco's 42nd Street Moon raised the roof - and significant funds - with the help of celebrity guest star, Megan Hilty, at WHAT WE DID FOR LOVE, the theatre company's gala fundraising evening held February 27 at Bimbo's 365 Club in San Francisco. A sold-out crowd of 270 guests, many of whom adopted the suggested theme attire of 'Anything Goes with a dash of red,' were thrilled by the sultry and Smash-ing talents of Broadway and television star Megan Hilty, who with help from her musical director Bryan Perry, performed a crowd-pleasing array of hits from her already impressive career. Scroll down for photos from the festivities!

TWO STEP, directed by Alex R. Johnson starring Beth Broderick, and up and comers Skyy Moore (Cry) and James Landry Hebert (Gangster Squad, Seven Psychopaths, Looper), features the original score by Austin resident Andrew Kenny as well as local music fixtures such as Jesse Dayton, Dale Watson

You're a good man, Charlie Brown, but Snoopy is pretty good, too. In fact, he's the head beagle, and he's played with excellence, honor, smarts and lots of puppy charm by Keith Pinto, who so wonderfully portrayed the same character last year in another Peanuts-based musical at the Bay Area's Retro Dome. Of course, it wouldn't be Peanuts without the rest of the gang, present for 42nd Street Moon's production of the clever and always enjoyable musical, "Snoopy."

Continuing its 21st season, 42nd Street Moon unwraps a holiday treat for the whole family, SNOOPY!!!, with Music by Larry Grossman, Lyrics by Hal Hackady and Book by Charles M. Schulz Creative Associates. Directed by Lee Ann Payne, the show will run November 27 - December 15, 2013. Meet the cast below!
