Shoshana Bean, Paul Castree, Michael Cerveris, Gavin Creel, Ana Gasteyer, Julie Halston, Jackie Hoffman, Jose Llana, Marc Kudisch, Andrea Martin, Steven Pasquale, Billy Porter, Tom Wopat and Bruce Vilanch will perform at the MCC Theater benefit Miscast, singing show tunes from roles they would never, ever perform. The presentation will take place on March 14 at Roseland.
"I am performing 'At the Ballet' with Julie Halston and Jackie Hoffman," Gasteyer told Broadway.com. "I think it was assigned to us because of the notion that the three of us are not the most graceful people you have ever seen."
Each year MCC Theater presents Miscast as its spring gala event. This year the event, in addition to showing some popular theater stars strutting their stuff, is honoring Shubert Organization chairman Gerald Schoenfeld. Scott Wittman will direct.
"I love this benefit," said Gasteyer, who has done Miscast twice before. "It's like the Golden Globes of benefits, meaning everyone is very glamorous and just a little inappropriate. It gets crazy and outrageous every time."
