The national touring company of Wicked presents a May 21 concert to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS and Denver's Project Angel Heart.

Entitled "The Ozdust Variety Hour," the concert will be held in the Garner Galleria Theatre in the Denver Performing Arts Complex. Show time is 7:30 PM.

The benefit, according to press notes, is a "planned homage — with a twist — to the great variety shows of the 1950s." Performers include members of the Wicked tour: Victoria Matlock (Elphaba), Christina DeCicco (Glinda), P.J. Benjamin (The Wizard), Cliffton Hall (Fiyero), Deedee Magno Hall (Nessarose), Tom Flynn (Dr. Dillamond) and Josh Lamon (Boq) as well as the Wicked ensemble.

One-of-a-kind Wicked items — including a walk-on role — will be auctioned during the evening, and attendees can also enter a raffle to win gift certificates, hotel stays and tickets to Wicked.

Tickets, priced $75-$150, are available by calling (303) 893-4100.
