"A poll released Tuesday, February 9th found that fifty-nine percent of Haitians in the United Stated had lost loved ones in the earthquake. Eighty percent of residents in Haiti live in poverty, according to the CIA World Factbook. And with the estimates of casualties in the hundreds of thousands, it's hard to imagine the devastation and hard to imagine what one individual can do to help," said Stanley Bahorek, who plays "Hunter" in [title of show]. "Nonetheless, we collectively felt we could do our part by hosting an evening to raise some funds to aid Haiti. We decided to put together a cabaret to showcase our vocal prowess, encyclopedic knowledge of contemporary musical theatre, impeccable delivery of comedy, and our unpretentiousness. So we're doing a cabaret where we can really show our inner diva ... and it's to benefit Haiti, so that's good too."

The cast of Arizona Theatre Company's [title of show] includes Stanley Bahorek, Lauren Lebowitz, Kelly McCormick and Sal Sabella. Accompaniment will be provided by Larry Pressgrove, the original "Larry" in [title of show]'s off-Broadway and Broadway runs.

Follow Jeff, Hunter, Heidi and Susan as they negotiate a musical theatre obstacle course of finding backers, casting singers, and making it to Broadway. This hit musical is being staged for Arizona audiences by the same team of artists that created ATC's hit productions of Hair and The Pajama Game.
