Television personality Carson Kressley and Tony Award winner Sara Ramirez will host Broadway Takes the Runway: An Evening of Fashion and Song, to be presented at the Touch Nightclub (240 West 52nd Street), on Monday, October 4 at 8pm.

The event, to be directed by Schele Williams, will also feature performances by Robin DeJesus, Montego Glover, Michael Park, Christopher Jackson, Billy Porter, and Natalie Weiss, and a special appearance by Audra McDonald. Mary Mitchell Campbell is the evening's musical director.

100% of the evening's profits will go to the Al D. Rodriguez Liver Foundation, which Kressley and Ramirez were inspired to create to honor their friend, Al, who died in 2008 of liver cancer. ADRLF is a non-profit organization committed to providing resources, education and information related to screening, prevention and treatment for the hepatitis virus and liver cancer.
