Hosted by In the Heights' Rogelio Douglas Jr., the masquerade-themed evening will feature a DJ, live band and performances by Brenda Braxton, Tituss Burgess, Matt Caplan, Merle Dandridge, Marcus Paul James, Kelly King, Tracy Mcdowell, Luis Salgado, Saycon Sengbloh, Rhapsody and Mistress of Ceremonies Britney Houston. Broadway After Dark (B.A.D.), according to press notes, is a "nightlife event catered toward Equity actors; a place where performers can relax, release and network within the Broadway community. Each month a different cast of singers, dancers, and musicians perform for an appreciative crowd of their peers and theatre supporters while raising money for various worthy causes."

The upcoming B.A.D. will benefit R.Evolución Latina, an affiliate of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS that was created to "further empower the Latino community and the artistic community at large through creative collaboration and community activism."

Doors will open at 8 PM; performances begin at 9 PM.
