Broadway Bares: Take Off promises titillating, travel-inspired striptease from a risqué red light district to a tantalizing taming of the bull and from a mega-hot Burning Man to a celebratory return to Stonewall.
Broadway Bares: Take Off is directed by Laya Barak; Jonathan Lee is the assistant director.
Broadway Bares was created in 1992 by Jerry Mitchell. The 28 editions of Broadway Bares have raised $19.1 million for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS.
