Jersey Boys Will Be Part of ‘Broadway to Baghdad,’ 10/17

October 15th, 2006

Yahoo News reports that the casts of the hit Broadway musicals Jersey Boys, Mamma Mia, and The Times They Are A-Changin’ have joined the list of celebrities who have donated their time to take part in “Broadway to Baghdad,” a star-studded special event sponsored by Vietnam Veterans of America on Tuesday, October 17, in New York City.

Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss Teen USA will join the Broadway stars in participating in the first part of the event, which will honor America’s fighting men and women — a USO-type show from 5 to 7 p.m. at the HBO Theater.

The Broadway stars and the reigning Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss Teen USA have videotaped tributes to America’s military personnel serving overseas. Those “shout-outs” will be shown to those attending the show at the HBO Theatre and then sent to American troops abroad in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere overseas.
