Bill Cosby, Chita Rivera and Mark Nadler were the headline performers of Laugh, Sing, Dance!, a benefit for Art Start at Town Hall, Thursday, October 13.

Art Start is an organization that aims to provide New York's underprivileged and at-risk youth with confidence, creativity and hope through the arts. Using performing arts programs, the volunteers give children and teens who live in shelters, are transient or coming out of jail, or living with parents in crisis the opportunity to express themselves creatively in a safe environment.
