Joy Behar, host of Current TV’s “Joy Behar: Say Anything!” will headline a special night of comedy to benefit victims of Hurricane Sandy, the recent super storm that affected New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. “Joy Behar’s Comics with Benefits” will feature Behar and an all-star lineup of her stand-up comic friends.

The show will air on Current TV on Friday, December 14th at 9pm ET, with subsequent airings throughout the holiday season. Proceeds will benefit two local charities providing Hurricane Sandy relief: UJA-Federation of New York and Rebuilding Together. The live event will take place live at 92nd Street Y on Monday, December 10th at 8pm ET.

Current co-founder Vice President Al Gore, actress and singer Liza Minnelli and others will appear in special videotaped appearances during the special. “I know that so many of my fellow New Yorkers have been deeply affected by this terrible storm,” said Behar. “I also believe that laughter is essential, now more than ever, as we rebuild after this disaster.”

You can buy tickets here or tune in to Current TV on December 14 at 9E/6P for an exclusive screening of the benefit event. Donate to the cause here.
