From 2005-2011, the stars of ABC Daytime took the stage at New York City’s Town Hall one night each year for ABC Daytime Salutes Broadway Cares. The evening featured dynamic production numbers, heartfelt ballads and hilarious skits. Now, 10 years after that final performance, the iconic ABC Daytime actors revisit their performances as they help raise money for those impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
When the event began in 2005. it was for a one-night benefit concert to celebrate All My Children’s 35th Anniversary. With overwhelming support from fans, the event continued for six more years and included cast members from One Life to Live, General Hospital and co-hosts of The View. Over its seven-year run, ABC Daytime Salutes Broadway Cares raised an incredible $1.85 million.
“This event is truly one of a kind,” Broadway Cares Executive Director Tom Viola said. “We are so thankful to the stars from ABC Daytime for joining us again as we relive moments from this delightful tradition, while helping to provide lifesaving medication, healthy meals and emergency support to those struggling during this ongoing pandemic.”
“It was such an incredible privilege and joy to join my fellow co-stars to perform in the seven ABC Daytime Salutes concerts to benefit Broadway Cares/ Equity Fights AIDS,” said former All My Children star Susan Lucci. “There are no fans like ABC Daytime fans. Their love and support continue to astonish us. We can’t wait to share these special performances with them and help raise money for so many in need during this difficult time.”
Lucci also shared her excitement on her Instagram account expressing: “We’re getting the fans and cast back together!!! Join us on Thursday, February 11 at 8pm for “ABC Daytime: Back on Broadway”—a fabulous online event revisiting seven years of singing, dancing and plot twists, featuring your favorite ABC Daytime stars. And it’s all to help Broadway Cares support our friends and neighbors who are struggling during this pandemic. Watch the stream at

Mr. Fairman,
What do we have to do or say for you to have an interwiew with Kelly Monaco?
I believe to have seen an intervew with everyone on the daytime canvas except
Ms Monaco?
Is it deliberate?
Does this have to do with personal or professional reasons?
Please enlighten me?
Thank You for you time. I apologize in advance if this was not a complete
disregard for a frontburner actor on her show. Pardon my french…. Après tout
je suis Française, je n’ai probablement pas saisie un de vos commentaires sur
cette actrice.
Au plaisir Mr, Fairman
Hello Reine:
Thanks for reaching ou…
We have attempted in the past to interview Kelly Monaco and due to cirumstances at the time with her schedule, it was not able to move forward.
She is someone always on my radar and when the opportunity presents itself, we will of course do an indepth feature on Kelly.
Best always,
Michael
Mr. Fairman,
Hopefully, in the near future, when the opportunity presents itself; I will have the pleasure of seeing you interviewing her. Till then, I’ll look forward to your
many other interviews.
I thank you for response, to be honest it was unexpected but greatly appreciated.
Au plaisir,
Reine
