Mary Tyler Moore and Bernadette Peters will host the eleventh annual Broadway Barks!, a star-studded dog and cat adopt-a-thon benefiting New York City animal shelters and adoption agencies.

Marking the 11th Anniversary of the organization, Broadway Barks! will again help many of New York City's shelter animals find permanent homes by informing New Yorkers about the plight of the thousands of "homeless" dogs and cats in the metropolitan area. Last year's Broadway Barks attracted an audience of more than 6,000 theater fans, pet owners, and animal lovers, and featured the participation of more than 24 animal shelters from the New York City area, as well as Broadway stars from the hit shows of the season.
