LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -

Performers from a number of shows on the Las Vegas Strip are volunteering their talents for one night to help children battle cancer.

Proceeds from "Circus Couture," which is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 28 at 5:30 p.m. at The Smith Center, benefit Children's Specialty Center of Nevada and St. Baldrick's Foundation.

Organizers say "Circus Couture" features a night of art, fashion and performance. Two of the shows stars, which comprise Duo Resonance, gave a preview of what to expect during a visit to FOX5 on Tuesday.

The benefactors of the show both support causes that help children with cancer. Children's Specialty Center treats kids with cancer no matter the level of medical coverage, according to organizers.

St. Baldrick's Foundation funds the most promising research in finding a cure to cancer.

Tickets to Circus Couture's presentation of "86 Peculiar Place" start at $15. Tickets valued at $75 include VIP seating and a meet and greet with performers.

Tickets are available at www.thesmithcenter.com.
