Yule gift ideas for the Broadway fans on your list
Thanks to the charity Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, there is a whole catalog of options. Just go to www.broadwaycares.org to order your copy or you can shop online.
My favorites: A few years ago I was delighted to discover the "Carols for a Cure" CDs. Take your favorite Broadway casts, add some Christmas classics, a pinch of new (hilarious) songs and you'll get a great new collection of Christmas music in unique arrangements.
And the recordings aren't just for chorus members. They're filled with Broadway heavy-hitters: Bernadette Peters, Harvey Fierstein, Idina Menzel, Kerry Butler, Sutton Foster and so much more.
This is the 10th anniversary edition and it's a two-disc set. The cast of "Xanadu" did "Hit the Deck (Deck the Halls, Disco Remix)"; "Billy Elliot" did "Cold Christmas"; and "Rent" did "Seasons/Love Heals: A Rent Farewell."
Or, you also have the option of getting your Broadway baby the whole 10-disc set for $170.
New this year: BC/EFA is also starting a new line of collectable ornaments, the "Broadway Legends" series. This year's features Angela Lansbury on a hand-made glass ornament dressed as "Mame."
And, your money goes to a good cause: Since 1998, BC/EFA has raised more than $150 million for people with AIDS and other serious illnesses.
Or: You could get your sweetie tickets to "Wicked"! Broadway Across America has announced single tickets for the upcoming tour will go on sale Friday, Dec. 12.
After advance-sales to subscribers and groups, it's sounding like there is a pretty limited number of tickets. So, buyers on your marks ... get set ... go!
