Broadway lovers are invited to join Oscar Andrew Hammerstein III ("The Hammersteins: A Musical Theatre Family") and Bill Dawes ("Lombardi") to be among the first guests to appear on a new Broadway-themed talk show launching November 15, 2010 at Manhattan's Iguana New York at 8:00 p.m. Also there will be special performances from Broadway's Russell Fischer (Jersey Boys), Kelly Grant (Company) and Correy West (South Pacific). Musicians will include Brad Gardner on piano, John Gundrum on guitar, Michael Pagnotta on woodwinds.

The new talk show, entitled That Theatre Show, seeks to chronicle the thoughts and stories of various actors, directors, composers and others that make New York's theater community world-renowned. The show will contain both be interviews and performances. The show is produced by Neal Bennington (owner of NealB.tv) and Sahar Helmy.

In an effort to give back to the community, the event will also contribute partial proceeds from the maiden episode to the Food Bank For New York City (http://www.foodbanknyc.org/). The Food Bank For NYC addresses the growing needs of people seeking emergency food assistance in New York City. Over the years, the Food Bank has experienced dramatic growth in the areas of food distribution, operations, programs and research to better serve the network of community food programs — and ultimately the people in New York City who rely on the food they provide. There will also be Broadway-themed raffle items to benefit the Food Bank, including a one-hour vocal coaching session with Broadway vocal coach Michael Lavine, Broadway posters and playbills. Bennington states: "The purpose of this new endeavor is to bring awareness, through different charitable organizations, and show that theater is unlike any other experience."

Tickets are $12.00 for advanced reservations, and $15.00 at the door (plus a one drink minimum -CASH ONLY). That Theatre Show's November 15th performance can be purchased by calling (212) 765 5454. The Iguana New York is located at 240 West 54th Street, New York, New York.
