Mo Rocca will host the benefit event — held at The Hammerstein Ballroom — which serves as the annual gala of the not-for-profit Off-Broadway company. Proceeds will go toward the MCC season, literary development and to support MCC's Youth Company and in-school partnerships that serve New York City public high school students.

Wopat (Catch Me If You Can, A Catered Affair), Miller (original member of Il Divo and Tony Award honoree for Baz Luhrman’s La Bohème), Ballard (Hairspray), Burns (Hair), Fowler (Grey Gardens), Horowitz (Sunday in the Park with George) and McClesky (Tarzan) will join the previously announced stars Raúl Esparza (Company), Sutton Foster (Thoroughly Modern Millie), Ana Gasteyer (Wicked), Montego Glover (Memphis), Cheyenne Jackson (Finian's Rainbow), Aaron Tveit (Next to Normal) and Marin Mazzie (Kiss Me, Kate).

Miscast 2010 is a musical presentation of Broadway stars singing songs from roles for which they would never be cast (for example, last year Alice Ripley belted Sweeney Todd's "My Friend"). The traditionally star-studded event will also honor actor Julianna Margulies ("The Good Wife" and MCC's Intrigue with Faye) "for her commitment to taking risks as an artist and for her long-standing support of MCC's mission."

The lineup of performers this year includes more stars to be announced. MCC will also welcome unannounced, surprise guests.

Last year, Miscast 2009 offered up these song-singer mix-ups: Steven Pasquale sang Annie's "Maybe," Norbert Leo Butz and Raul Esparza (as The Last Five Years' Jamie and Cathy) dueted "The Next Ten Minutes," Kelli O'Hara switched to South Pacific's Emile for "This Nearly Was Mine" and Daniel Breaker (Shrek, Passing Strange) as Legally Blonde's Elle Woods performed "So Much Better."
