Broadway By the Year concerts open time capsules to some of the Great White Way's most memorable seasons and songs. This year’s concerts celebrate music, anecdotes, and behind-the-scenes stories on various themes, the first being the groundbreaking work of a fresh new crop of writers and the defining elements of our new, contemporary Broadway.
“We are thrilled with the wonderful lineup for our first Broadway By The Year,” said Siegel in an earlier statement. “Musical theatre is an ever-evolving art form and we look forward to showcasing the work that has pushed the boundaries on what Broadway shows were, to what Broadway shows have become.”
The two-time Tony recipient will reprise some of his most loved numbers from The Boy From Oz, The Greatest Showman, and more in From New York, With Love.
Performing material by Stevie Nicks, Pat Benatar, Carole King, and more, the one-night-only concert aims to empower, inspire, and uplift the ferocity of women.
