News Broadway Bares 22 Sets June Date; Tickets Now on Sale Broadway's sexiest night of the year is set for June 17 at the famed Roseland Ballroom.

Two Broadway Bares shows will be presented that Sunday: at 9:30 PM and midnight. The Roseland Ballroom is located in New York City at 239 West 52nd Street.

The evening will be directed by Lee Wilkins, who has served as the event's associate director the past two years. This year's theme and special guests will be announced in the spring.

Broadway Bares was created by Jerry Mitchell, the Tony-winning choreographer/director, who is the executive producer of the event. The 21st annual Broadway Bares competition, entitled Broadway Bares XXI: Masterpiece, raised $1,103,072, the highest total of any edition of Bares. To date, the 21 editions of Broadway Bares have raised more than $8.6 million for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.

A little Bares history: Nearly 20 years ago, Mitchell, who once danced nearly naked on a drum in The Will Rogers Follies, found himself inspired to take it all off to raise money for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, and Broadway Bares was born. The first year, he and seven other Broadway dancers raised $8,000 for the charitable organization.

Tickets are on sale now at broadwaybares.com, broadwaycares.org or by calling (212) 840-0771, ext. 268. Prices range from $60-$750. VIP tickets include open bar and special viewing areas. Also available is the exclusive “Stripper Spectacular” package, which includes a reserved table seat at either show, admission to a private cocktail party at the home of Broadway Bares creator Jerry Mitchell, a backstage tour and more.
