News Robert Creighton, Lindsay Mendez and Betsy Wolfe Join Lineup For Broadway Belts! Benefit Robert Creighton (Anything Goes), Lindsay Mendez (Godspell) and Betsy Wolfe (Encores! Merrily We Roll Along) have been added to the lineup of the second annual Broadway Belts! for PFF (Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation) benefit, which is scheduled for Feb. 27 at Birdland.

As previously announced, the 7 PM concert will be hosted by Julie Halston, who joined the cast of Roundabout's Anything Goes earlier this year.

Directed by Carl Andress, the evening will also feature Tony nominee Adam Pascal (Rent, Memphis), Heidi Blickenstaff (The Addams Family, [title of show]), Julia Murney (Queen of the Mist, Wicked) and Darlene Love (Hollywood Bowl's Hairspray), who will belt out some of Broadway's most memorable songs. Seth Rudetsky will conduct his seminar on the art of Broadway belting. Jesse Kissel is musical director.

Halston is a spokeswoman and activist for Pulmonary Fibrosis ever since her husband (broadcaster Ralph Howard) was diagnosed with the disease in 2008.

All funds will go toward The Michael Kuchwara Fund for Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis Research, Education and Advocacy in honor of the late and beloved Associated Press theatre critic and reporter.

Doors will open at 5 PM with curtain time promptly at 7 PM. Birdland is located at 315 West 44th Street. For more information, email [email protected] or call (312) 239-6636. The event is sold out; however, there is a waiting list available at bit.ly/broadway2012. [There is a $10 food/drink minimum per person.]
