NEW YORK (AP) – On heels of the chart-topping single that continues to benefit victims of last month’s deadly nightclub massacre in Orlando comes a benefit concert for the city.

The July 25 show will feature appearances from some of Broadway’s biggest stars, including Brian Stokes Mitchell, Norbert Leo Butz, Kelli O’Hara, Chita Rivera, Jessie Mueller and many others. Additional performers will be announced in the coming weeks.

Tickets go on sale Thursday.

The benefit was the brainchild of Seth Rudetsky; his husband, James Wesley; and Tony-winning producer Kenny Howard. It will be held at the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts.

A CD and DVD of the concert will be available from Broadway Records.
