It’s no surprise that even when it comes to Christmas, nothing is ‘normal’ in Hollywood.  For the past 10 years they have been celebrating a BIG FAT CHRISTMAS……in the true spirit is actually all for a very good cause.  BROADWAY TO THE RESCUE stars perform a special, rollicking good time, holiday fundraiser for HOPE THE MISSION – to support their work with the homeless and poor in the San Fernando Valley and across greater Los Angeles.

Broadway performer Michael-Leon Wooley and co-host Jason Michael Snow (Showtime’s Black Monday and Book of Mormon and South Pacific on Broadway), have each year gathered their friends and fellow performers, who come together as BROADWAY TO THE RESCUE, to provide an evening of amazing holiday favorites and musical theatre showstoppers called THE BIG FAT CHRISTMAS SHOW celebrating the holidays, entertaining and informing supporters of HOPE THE MISSION as part of this annual gala, along with festive live and silent auctions.

This year, the fundraiser takes place on Friday, December 5^th at 8pm at the El Portal Theatre, (5269 Lankershim Blvd, North Hollywood, CA 91601) and features the talents of Wooley and Snow, along with Clent Bowers (“Old Deuteronomy” in CATS on Broadway, national tours of The Wiz and Ain’t Misbehavin’, the film Little Fockers), Carly Hughes (Chicago, Pippin, Beautiful, ABC’s American Housewife), Wendy Rosoff (42^nd Street, White Christmas), Rena Strober (CBS’ Big Bang Theory, Les Miserables – Broadway and national tour), and Sharon Wilkins (The Life, Seussical).
