Chris Rock is one of “Too Many Stars”

Chris Rock will be joining the likes of Lewis Black, Tina Fey, Steve Carell and Ricky Gervais as part of the lineup for “Night Of Too Many Stars.” The charity event is being hosted by Jon Stewart, whose production company, Busboy Productions, is presenting the gathering along with Comedy Central. There’s no denying the Daily Show connection.

“Night Of Too Many Stars - An Overbooked Concert For Autism Education” is scheduled to take place October 2nd at the Beacon Theatre in New York City. Ticket prices are designed to bring out the rich and famous to support the cause… to the tune of $5000/tkt to $500/tkt. Packages of 10 tickets are available for a mere $25,000 up to $100,000.

With Stewart as host, you can expect an evening of hilarity provided by live performances, sketches, and short films coming from the roster of stars participating. The event raises money for autism education and family service programs across the country.  At this writing, tickets are SOLD OUT, even at those prices.
