Joseph, Tade, and Peter say a brief hello to BETM Facebook fans and urge us to come see the show one more time before it closes.

The Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS Facebook site has posted the following:
"Over the past three years, the Broadway company of Billy Elliot the Musical raised nearly $950,000 for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. As a thank you and tribute to their amazing show, we donated $100,000 to The Place2Be, a UK-based organization that seeks to improve the well-being of school children. Here's a picture of the current cast accepting the donation!"
There's also a picture of the BETM Broadway cast accepting the check here:
