ABC DAYTIME SUPPORTS
BROADWAY CARES/ EQUITY FIGHTS AIDS
WITH AN ALL-STAR BROADWAY EXTRAVAGANZA, FEBRUARY 6th
at DISNEY’S LANDMARK NEW AMSTERDAM THEATRE


On Monday, February 6th, 2006, Susan Lucci headlines a musical celebration featuring stars from ABC’s top rated daytime line up; “The View,” “All My Children,” “One Life to Live” and “General Hospital” as they perform on Broadway for one night to support Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS. The event will be sponsored in part by ABC Daytime, The Walt Disney Company and SOAPnet.

Among the cavalcade of stars confirmed to join Ms. Lucci on stage include; David Canary, Bobbie Eakes, Jill Larson, Cady McClain, Sydney Penny, Aiden Turner, Walt Willey and Jacob Young from “All My Children;” Kristen Alderson, Kathy Brier, Kerry Buttler, Kassie Depaiva, Kamar de los Reyes, Renee Elise Goldsberry, Catherine Hickland, Matt Metzger and Robin Strasser from “One Life to Live,” and Kelly Monaco, Kimberly McCullough and Scott Clifton from “General Hospital.” In addition, the evening will include surprise appearances from additional cast members from all three daytime dramas.

Television icon, Barbara Walters, creator/executive producer and co-host of “The View,” will open the evening with a tribute to BC/EFA. Meredith Vieira, Joy Behar, Star Jones Reynolds and Elisabeth Hasselbeck from “The View” will also take part in the evening’s festivities.

“ABC Daytime Salutes Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS” marks the second benefit the network has produced with and in support of this organization. Last year, the cast of “All My Children” celebrated the show’s 35th anniversary, raising $250,000. The event will be held at The New Amsterdam Theatre on 214 West 42nd Street, current home to the Broadway smash hit, “The Lion King”. The performance will begin at 7:30 pm. For tickets visit www.bcefa.org for all ticket prices and sponsorship opportunities.

“The Walt Disney Company and ABC Television Network have a long standing commitment to community outreach. Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS is a remarkable organization. With this special night on Broadway, our goal is to once again raise awareness and substantial funds helping BC/EFA help those in need,” said Mr. Frons, president ABC daytime. “Due to the overwhelming support from our fans, we are able to give back to them as well as the community at large,” he added.

“One of BC/EFA most successful one-night events was last year’s “All My Children 35th Anniversary Celebration on stage at Town Hall, says Tom Viola, executive director of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. “We were sold out to the rafters, the daytime stars were great fun to work with and terrific on stage. I think we were about halfway through the post-party before we started talking about doing something together again. We are most grateful the ABC Daytime’s support. This year’s event, I’m certain, will be every bit as wonderful with even more one-night-only surprises!”
