Broadway is coming to Brooklyn for FREE!
Calling all Broadway enthusiast and lovers of a good FREE show! The Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment has announced the full line-up of its popular Broadway in the Boros series. The free performances will feature cast members and musicians of hit Broadway musicals in neighborhoods throughout New York City, excluding Manhattan.
“We are thrilled to present a stellar lineup for this year’s Broadway in the Boros, a program that enables New Yorkers throughout the five boroughs to experience the extraordinary talents of our Broadway community,” said Media and Entertainment Commissioner Julie Menin. “We invite all New Yorkers to come out to parks in their neighborhoods to enjoy these musical performances and hope to even inspire some future Broadway stars in the audience.”
Broadway in the Boros aims to increase access to the magic of Broadway to all New Yorkers in Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. For many families, Broadway in the Boros may be their first or only opportunity to experience a currently-running Broadway musical. These unique outdoor events are presented in public parks and plazas in neighborhoods where live music programming is generally infrequent.
Brooklyn will kick off the series on Friday, June 15, at The Plaza (300 Ashland) with performances from Broadway cast members and musicians from A Bronx Tale and Come From Away.
“I’m proud to welcome A Bronx Tale and Come from Away to Fort Greene,” said Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams. “I remember seeing my first show on Broadway and how transformative it was for me. I hope children and families from all across Brooklyn can have that same enriching experience at this free performance in one of our borough’s most unique open spaces.”
The series is set to take place from noon to 1 p.m. every other Friday, ending in the Bronx on July 27. In addition to performances, each event features Broadway tickets and giveaways, trivia games and more! All performances are hosted by the Julie James, host of the popular SiriusXM Radio show “On Broadway.”
