[October 26, 2010]  NEW YORK (AP) --Some of entertainment's biggest names -- including Eva Mendes, Elijah Wood, Julia Stiles, Claire Danes, Christopher Meloni, Leslie Bibb, Gloria Estefan and Kyra Sedgwick -- have signed up to be frazzled.

 

InsuranceThey'll be appearing next month in the 10th annual benefit "24 Hour Plays on Broadway," which tasks 24 actors, six writers and six directors to come up with six original short plays and perform them over the course of a day.

The playwrights will gather at 10 p.m. on Nov. 14 and must pen a 10-minute play by 7 a.m. the next morning. The actors will then rehearse the work for the next 12 hours. At 8 p.m. on Nov. 15, the plays will be performed for a live audience.

The one-night-only shows benefit the Urban Arts Partnership.
