Broadway Bares XXI: Masterpiece will offer up a modern-day burlesque show packed with museum-quality human canvases that would make an art critic blush. 'Mover,' Summer Broyhill will be one them baring some skin in attempt to raise much needed funds.
The first Broadway Bares in 1992 featured seven dancers performing choreographed stripteases on a bar that raised $8,000. In the 20 editions so far, Broadway Bares has collectively raised more than $7.5 million.
A letter from Summer:

Hello!
I very much appreciate your support, whether it be by donation or in your attendance at Broadway Bares XXI STRIPATHON.
All proceeds go to support Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, a phenomenal non-profit that not only supports those living with this horrendous illness, but also a variety of other public health programs geared at the artistic community.
BC/EFA is the major supporter of seven programs at The Actors Fund, including The HIV/AIDS Initiative, The Phyllis Newman Women’s Health Initiative, The Al Hirschfeld Free Health Clinic (a personal Godsend for me in times when the only health insurance I could afford was insufficient), The Actors Fund Work Program, The Dancers’ Resource, The Stage Managers’ Project and three supportive housing residences. BC/EFA also awards annual grants to more than 400 AIDS and family service organizations nationwide.
No amount is too small (or too great), so let's use small change to make a big difference!
-Summer Broyhill
