Broadway Bares will head to the beach this May for a summer edition of the burlesque show Broadway Bares Fire Island. Produced by and benefiting Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the show will offer two performances (7pm and 9pm) at Whyte Hall's Brandon Fradd Theater in Fire Island Pines, New York, on May 30.

The show will feature an evening of new numbers directed by Michael Lee Scott, with Bares dancers performing on a runway jutting into the audience, followed by Bares' famous "rotation" where the performers freestyle dance for donations.

Tickets to Broadway Bares Fire Island include free cocktails on the Albert Lepage Pavilion at Whyte Hall half an hour before curtain. An exclusive "Walk-on Stripper Spectacular" package is also available, including an onstage (fully clothed) appearance during one of the shows; rehearsal, dinner, and photos with the cast; and four premium seats at either show, plus two VIP General Admission tickets to Broadway Bares in NYC and more.

The New York City edition of the annual Broadway Bares fundraiser will be held June 21 at the Hammerstein Ballroom. The event "combines the naughtiness of burlesque and the razzle-dazzle of Broadway," featuring 150 of the hottest male and female dancers in New York City. This year's theme will be announced next week.
