| Dancers Over 40 is proud to celebrate its 30th anniversary as an organization with its first ever – and 54 Below's first ever – roast! And who else could be the main course but Mr. Broadway himself, DO40 member and former board member Lee Roy Reams! It will be an all-star musical roast guaranteed to keep you laughing all night long, featuring TONY winners Len Cariou (Sweeney Todd), Melissa Errico (My Fair Lady) Penny Fuller (Applause!) and Judy Kaye (Phantom of the Opera), as well as Anita Gillette (Cabaret), Karen Mason (Wonderland), Pamela Myers (Company), Mary Callanan (Annie, Mamma Mia!) and Grammy Award winner Billy Stritch. Lee Roy has done many shows at 54 Below and shared many secrets in his Uncensored show (shhh!), and we're sure there will be stories (and dirt!) about the man who directed Carol Channing, danced with Ruby Keeler and dished with Lauren Bacall, performed in 42nd Street, Applause, La Cage Aux Folles, Sweet Charity a DO40 member for over 15 years and a member of the Board of Directors for 5! This is produced in association with 54 Below and producer Robert W. Schneider, with the multi-talented Drama Desk Award winner Jim Brochu ( Zero Hour) directing and the nimble fingers of musical director Fred Barton on the ivories. This is Dancers over 40's first foray at 54 Below, where many, many DO40 members have performed for other events. And, this is the first fundraiser for Dancers Over 40 in over…30 years! DO40 is known to give back to the community, especially Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, where they have raised over $50,000 at the BC/EFA annual flea market over the past 15 years. DO40's dance concerts have benefited BC/EFA, the Anti-Violence Project, the Entertainment Community Fund and Project Achieve/NYBlood Center and Columbia University's HIV Vaccine Trials Unit.
