26 Feb 2007


Emmy Award winner Susan Lucci, who is arguably the biggest star of daytime television, was among the artists who took part in the third annual ABC Daytime Salutes Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS benefit concert Feb. 25 at Town Hall.

The 7:30 PM concert featured stars from such ABC-TV daytime programs as "The View," "All My Children," "One Life to Live" and "General Hospital" as well as Tarzan's Josh Strickland and Mary Poppins' Ashley Brown.

Joy Behar kicked off the event with a special comedy performance. Cameron Mathison hosted the evening, which boasted the talents of Lucci as well as Jeff Branson, Justin Bruening, Jeffrey Carlson, Melissa Claire Egan, Bobbie Eakes, Alexa Havins, Cady McClain, Sydney Penny, Eden Riegel, Aiden Turner, Walt Willey, Jacob Young, Kristen Alderson, Kathy Brier, Kassie DePaiva, Kamar de los Reyes, Renee Elise Goldsberry, Catherine Hickland, Erika Slezak, Trevor St. John, Jason Thompson, Kimberly McCullough and Scott Cliffton.
