A starry lineup of A-list talent has been newly announced to take part in the eagerly anticipated return of The Rosie O'Donnell Show. The previously announced event, presented in support of The Actors Fund and co-produced by Erich Bergen, is scheduled for March 22 at 7:00pm ET on Broadway.com and Broadway.com's YouTube channel.

For six remarkable seasons, The Rosie O'Donnell Show remained the hottest thing in daytime television. From its first season to its final episode, which culminated in a giant Broadway medley, The Rosie O'Donnell Show devoted more airtime to promoting theatrical productions than any other national program in television history. Even after ending her show, O'Donnell has remained a tireless supporter of Broadway, as a performer, producer, outspoken fan and a three-time host of the Tony Awards. In 2014, the Tony Awards honored O'Donnell with its Isabelle Stevenson Award in recognition of her commitment to arts education.
