Last night, Broadway's steamiest event of the year took place at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City, and the stars—and stripping dancers—were out in full force. Each year, Broadway Bares, a sexy strip-a-thon showcase of theater's top talent, presents the one-night-only production to raise money for charity Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. And last night's iteration—which I was fortunate enough to attend—did not disappoint.

The annual fundraiser performance was an evening to remember, featuring over 200 dancers and appearances by Tony-winners Alex Newell, Jak Malone and Nicole Scherzinger. This year's title? Broadway Bares: Come Out, Come Out (in case you couldn't guess, it was a Wizard of Oz-themed affair).

With a loose plot, the show followed Dante, a young gay man from Kansas, who was swept up by a tornado and plunked down in Oz. What ensued was a series of big-budget production numbers (with a heavy focus on stripping and burlesque) that took Dante down the "yellow thicc road." Oh, and it included a visit from former Pussycat Doll and Sunset Blvd. star Scherzinger.
