Joining Stancil as associate director is Paula DeLuise. Mitchell and Nick Kenkel, a longtime Bares director and performer, are executive producers.
Broadway Bares was created in 1992 by Mitchell during his time as a Broadway dancer. Looking for a way to raise awareness and money for those living with HIV/AIDS, Mitchell and six of his friends danced atop a New York City bar and raised $8,000 in Broadway Bares’ first iteration.
Last year’s standing-room-only edition took the audience on the rousing ride of their life at Broadway Bares: Pleasure Park and raised $1.88 million, bringing its lifetime total to more than $26 million for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.
Broadway Bares receives generous support from presenting sponsor M∙A∙C Viva Glam and lead corporate sponsors United Airlines, the official airline of Broadway Cares, and ViiV Healthcare.
