Cheyenne Jackson, the Xanadu star recently seen in the City Center Encores! Summer Stars production of Damn Yankees, will entertain at amfAR's (The Foundation for AIDS Research) Fourth Annual Bucks County Cabaret.
The Sept. 21 fundraiser will be held at Cradle Valley Farm in Solebury, PA. Seth Rudetsky will accompany Jackson on piano.
Bucks County Cabaret, according to press notes, "aims to heighten HIV/AIDS awareness among the Greater Philadelphia-area community, while raising funds for amfAR's vital AIDS research programs."
In addition to Jackson's performance, the evening will include cocktails, hors d'oeuvres and a silent auction.
Cheyenne Jackson, who was seen in the film "United 93," has appeared on Broadway in Xanadu, All Shook Up, Aida and Thoroughly Modern Millie. He starred in the premiere cast of Altar Boyz, and his regional credits include West Side Story, The Most Happy Fella, Children of Eden, Hair, Carousel, Damn Yankees and Kismet. Jackson is a member of the Broadway Inspirational Voices and was seen Off-Broadway in The Agony and the Agony and at City Center in Damn Yankees.
