Broadway Barks was a great, albeit very crowded fundraiser, with a good number of adoptions and some great memorabilia sales tables. The weather was beautiful.
JLY, Bobby, and Christian were terrific on stage, and kindly posed for pictures and signed autographs for all who wanted them, as usual. Many of the JB team were there for support as well– I personally saw Dominic Nolfi, Donnie Kehr, Rick Elice, and Marshall Brickman, but I’m sure there were others.
I also had the pleasure of meeting Fantastic Fan Hilary, who was a volunteer. Loads of Broadway stars were there, but my biggest treat (aside from JB) was seeing the absolutely ageless Angela Lansbury, along with legends Mary Tyler Moore and Bernadette Peters.
Bobby Spencer was hilarious in his presentation. But the biggest laugh of the afternoon came when one of the hosts suggested our Christian Hoff may also be up for “adoption” and numerous hands went up to volunteer!!
Kudos to all these folks for a great cause!
