Product Description
A front-row seat for the hottest show in town–Broadway’s finest strip down for a good cause.
This is your ticket behind the scenes to see Broadway’s sexiest performers displaying some of their greatest assets. Gorgeous stage idols from the biggest shows strut their stuff as you’ve never seen them before. It’s burlesque naughtiness lit up by the razzle-dazzle of the Great White Way. They tease, they titillate, they tantalize. And boy, do they deliver the goods. By the end of each number they’re wearing little more than a smile. But at the end of the show comes the real payoff; hundreds of thousands of dollars have been raised for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, the theatre community’s unique fundraising and grantmaking organization.
Backstage Pass peeks behind the curtain at the famous event called Broadway Bares– conceived by Tony Award—winning director and choreographer Jerry Mitchell–which sets New York City ablaze each summer. The hottest dancers in show business come together for this one-night-only sold-out “Strip-A-Thon”–a fundraising, eye-popping spectacle the likes of which Gypsy Rose Lee could never have dreamed. Now for the first time this luxurious keepsake album brings together all the sizzling posters, scintillating backstage shots, and scorching on-stage photographs from the past seventeen years of Broadway Bares. Sit back and enjoy the show.

 One man's poison is another's delight! September 20, 2008
Once a year, Broadway goes over the top--well even more over the top--with a strip-a-thon, all done for a very worthy cause: Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. This fun, frivolous, delicious book memorializes this wonderful event with photos, front and back stage, of some very, very nice looking men. Some are still. However, some are not; capturing the hectic, frantic, ecstatic goings-on of this spirited and campy event. Sure you can say its arty--but its silly arty--not the least bit pretentious. This book is a cheap ticket to an expensive event--well-worth the time and money!
 My Question is... August 18, 2008

Is there actual full frontal male nudity? The verbiage leads one to think it is full frontal nude with genitalia, but then there's a couple of keywords suggesting "No, it's a tease"...
I wish they would straight out say one way or the other.

 Poor quality photos for this expensive book July 2, 2008

For what looked like it was going to be a fantastic look at backstage antics, nudity and actors baring it all, it is a HUGE disappointment. The quality of the photos is sub-par, less than desirable, sort of that hazy "artistic" look that actually is so unclear that often you don't know what the subject is.
HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED, am returning the book right away for a refund...this the first time I've ever returned something to Amazon in over 10 years of using their service.
I'm sure the pictures are great... June 24, 2008

But I actually just have a question: Do the profits of this book also go to Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS?
