This year's fundraiser, titled Broadway Bares: Top Bottoms of Burlesque, a show inspired by the Golden Age of Broadway, "will feature a cast of colorful characters for every desire and fantasy. Broadway’s iconic personalities--from devilish divas to charismatic casting directors, luscious lyricists to studly stagehands--will combine the naughtiness of burlesque with the razzle-dazzle of Broadway," according to BC/EFA.

This year, Broadway Bares welcomes back to the director’s chair its Tony Award-winning founder and executive producer, Jerry Mitchell. Broadway Bares: Top Bottoms of Burlesque will be co-directed by Nick Kenkel.

"A lot of things can happen in 25 years, but who would've thought that seven guys dancing on a bar could grow into an annual event that has raised so much to help people living with HIV and AIDS," Mitchell said. "Broadway Bares has done that. And this year we're going full out, maybe even with a top hat and our version of tails, ’cause if, baby, you're a bottom, you're the top."

The Very Best of Broadway Bares 2011–2014
