Talk Radio powerhouse Rush Limbaugh is planning a one-man Broadway show to benefit the victims of Hurricane Katrina.  "Rush on Broadway" will open for a one-day-only performance on Tuesday Oct. 18 at the New Amsterdam Theater on 42nd Street in New York.

Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. today (Tuesday) for $77.

The NY Post reports that Sean Hannity will provide what the station calls "a special introduction."

"Rush is the Babe Ruth of our business. He's adored by tens of millions of people, and this event will help raise more sorely needed money for the relief effort. I am honored to be part of it," Hannity said.

The Post speculates that Limbaugh will perform an updated version of his "Rush to Excellence" show.

There is no mention of the charitable show on www.rushlimbaugh.com but NewsMax notes that WABC - his flagship station in New York - began running commercials for the show Thursday night.
