"This special evening and gathering of friends was created in the memory of our dear friend, Al – who loved Broadway and a great pair of heels! We have amazing talent that will be up close and personal in a small venue, it will truly be a night of celebration," said Kressley in a recent statement. "In addition to the celebration we have planned, this is a very personal evening for us. We are really looking forward to sharing our stories and memories of Al while singing memorable Broadway songs that he loved and that we love as well!" added Ramirez.
