Xena Warrior Princess Lucy Lawless will play a special concert in San Francisco this weekend to raise money for AIDS research.

The New Zealand-born star will perform at the Herbst Theater this Saturday to benefit the Richmond/Ermet AIDS Foundation, an organization dedicated to raising money for AIDS service providers in San Francisco. Born from the grass-roots efforts of two mothers – Barbara Richmond and the late Peggy Ermet, who lost their only sons to AIDS – the Foundation honors their sons’ memories by helping to alleviate the suffering of many of the other sons and daughters living with HIV and AIDS. The Foundation has now become one of the leading sources of funding for many local AIDS service providers.

“I am going to Feel the Love this year with a concert at the Herbst Theatre in San Francisco, September 27,” said Lawless. “I am inspired by the fans and their incredible generosity of spirit. I will take none of the proceeds from the box office. Anything that might have been my portion will go to the REAF organization, which does such a great job with AIDS-related charities in the Bay Area.”
