Broadway Bares

9:30 pm and Midnight, Sunday, June 21
Hammerstein Ballroom
311 West 34th Street, NYC

Pride, passion and 200 of the city’s fiercest dancers will ignite the stage in a spectacular, seductive celebration when Broadway Bares returns to kick off New York City Pride Week with two sizzling performances.

With two performances at 9:30 pm and midnight, Broadway Bares launches NYC Pride Week in dazzling, seductive fashion – a one-night-only extravaganza of show-stopping numbers, fearless talent and unforgettable moments.

   

This year’s theme will be announced this spring.

Tickets for Broadway Bares (#BroadwayBares) start at $75. VIP tickets feature unlimited specialty cocktails and reserved seating, now with more table seats available than ever before.

The always popular “Stripper Spectacular” package includes a premium reserved table seat at either show, a backstage tour and an invitation to a private cocktail party hosted by Jerry Mitchell, Broadway Bares’ Tony Award-winning creator and executive producer. The ”Barest Insider Experience” includes a premium reserved table seat to either performance, a backstage tour and access to the final “un-dress” rehearsal the evening of the show. New this year: priority floor ticket holders at the 9:30 pm performance, as well as all floor attendees at the midnight show, can upgrade their experience to include the cocktail party or un-dress rehearsal access.

Joining director Kellen Stancil as associate director is veteran Broadway Bares performer Paula DeLuise, with Savannah Joy Cobb serving as assistant director. Mitchell and Nick Kenkel, a longtime Broadway 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 a larger-than-life, over-the-rainbow romp down the yellow brick road in the sexy, Oz-inspired Broadway Bares: Come Out, Come Out, which raised $2.44 million. The evening brought the event’s lifetime total to $31.1 million raised 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.
