Актеры Хью Джекман и Дэниел Крэйг, которые в настоящее время заняты в бродвейской постановке A Steady Rain, после окончания спектакля устроили благотворительный аукцион, пишет The Telegraph. Звезда "Людей-Икс" и Джеймс Бонд предложили зрителям купить жилеты, в которых они выступали.

За одежду актеров предлагали от трех до четырех тысяч долларов. В итоге артисты продали свои жилеты за 3,5 тысячи долларов каждый. Заинтересованные зрительницы не захотели останавливаться на этом и даже предложили купить брюки Джекмана и Крэйга, однако они отказались снимать штаны.

Все деньги, вырученные на необычном аукционе, пойдут в бродвейский фонд милосердия (Broadway Cares charity) для исследований в борьбе со СПИДом. В рамках акции актеры также предложили зрителям сфотографироваться с ними за две тысячи долларов. Помимо этого, в театре Герарда Шонфелда продавались подписанные артистами программки, цена которых составила 60 долларов, а также плакаты с автографами стоимостью 300 долларов.

В спектакле A Steady Rain Джекман и Крэйг играют чикагских полицейских. Режиссером постановки выступил Джон Кроули. Показ спектакля продолжится до 6 декабря.

007 and Wolverine Give Shirts Off Their Backs, Raise More Than $1 Million for BC/EFA

A steady rain of heavy coins has been following A Steady Rain at the Schoenfeld for a month now, and on Nov. 19 Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman made history in their fund-raising for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS when their show became the first to reach $1 million all by itself — $1,029,833, to be precise.

Jackson came closest to that figure when he raised $612,000 during his Boy From Oz run. “There have been several shows that have come close to that — Rent, Hairspray, The Producers,” said a jubilant Tom Viola, BC/EFA’s executive director. “Basically, when a show — it’s usually a musical — raises $250,000, that’s a tremendous success. The fact that Hugh and Daniel, in the fourth of six weeks of fund-raising, have raised a million dollars is incredible and really speaks to their extraordinary generosity and great good will.”

Among the items being hustled are posters for $300 and Playbills for $60 — both signed — that you can only get at the theatre. “They’re gracious enough to say, ‘Since we’re selling these here, we will not be signing autographs at the stage door,’ because they don’t want somebody to buy a Playbill for $60 and then have somebody else put a Playbill in front of them for nothing.” Also, Craig and Jackson will pose with members of the audience for photos backstage for $2,000 a piece.

But the piece de resistance is a variation on the sweat towels that Jackman peddle during The Boy From Oz: He and Craig literally sell the sleeveless t-shirts right off their backs that they wear under their shirts during the performance — “wife-beaters,” they’re called, after Stanley Kowalski. “They start the bidding at $1,000, saying each will sign their own t-shirt, and the winner will get both. What they have done literally at every performance is sell the t-shirt twice so if the final bid is, say, $4,500, they will ask the underbidder if he will match that, they will both sign each T-shirt. And then Broadway Cares gets twice the donation. They’ve gone for anywhere from $3,500 to, literally one night, $15,000 twice!”

Stars have been sweating for your money since Dec. 16, 1939. The day after “Gone With the Wind” world-premiere in Atlanta, a woman plopped down a pretty penny at the front desk of the Georgian Terrace Hotel for the room just vacated by Clark Gable. Her only stipulation was that the sheets not be changed.

совсем охренели... Постер подписанный- 300, программка - 60....

Нет, Спид Спидом, но как чувствуют себя допустим, мальчишка какой-нибудь, фанат ДК или Хд, протягивая программку для подписи, а ему в ответ - за деньги.. И главное как чувствуют себя ДК и ХД...

Все на продажу... Я бы на их месте устроила аукцион среди элиты и толстосумов, там и собрать можно было больше...

Portner, who is education director at La Crosse Community Theatre, spends as much time at the theater as she can possibly manage whenever she makes it to New York. When she attends productions alone, she often chats with the people sitting next to her.

While sitting in the audience at “At a Steady Rain,” she struck up a conversation with Susan Clemson and Charuwan Siri.

Because this was a fundraising week for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, there was a fundraising raffle for a backstage meet-and-greet with show stars Daniel Craig (the latest in a long line of James Bonds) and Hugh Jackman (better known to many as Wolverine).

Siri ended up paying $1,500 for the meet-and-greet, and she brought along her new friend Portner when she went backstage.

“She turns to the lady by the stage door and she asks her how many people she can bring back. Then she grabs my arm and pulls me along and says, ‘There’s three of us.’”

At that point, they hadn’t even exchanged names.

“We get on stage, and I can see Daniel Craig standing there and Hugh Jackman. And it was my birthday, so Hugh Jackman signed my playbill, ‘Happy birthday, Hugh Jackman.’ They both wrote happy birthday. It was so surreal, and it happened so quickly. I grabbed Hugh Jackman’s hand and he gave me a kiss.”

театральный критик рассуждает о "Дожде", хвалит наших голубков

Ну что моя дорогая! Сбылась твоя мечта! Поздравляю!

все как я и написала!!!

We saw A Steady Rain tonight. And after a rousing performance (I actually heard a fellow audience member say “wow” at the end of the show), was an even better performance.
Hugh Jackman and Daniel Craig were auctioning off items to raise money for Broadway Cares, like signed posters and programs. But, they went above and beyond by auctioning the actual shirts off their backs. Their shirts, along with their pants went for 10,000 (yes, ten thousand) a piece, for a total of 40,000 dollars.
It started out as one bidder getting to the ten thousand mark, with a theatre usher greasing the wheels by yelling at the eight thousand mark, “It’s Wolverene and James Bond, c’mon!” As Jackman played auctioneer with much aplomb, he realized that he could get multiple bids, instead of just one. He said humbly to the crowd, “I’ll give you my pants, sign it and everything to raise money.”
And so, four lucky bidders (можно оказывается скидываться ) got an article of clothing, signed by the stars, along with photos and time with them backstage… Jackman used his and Craig’s celebrity with the best results tonight, harnessing their star power for the benefit of those who need it most.
And it was a win win for us all… as we got to see a show after the show.
