"I am thrilled to be honoring such a hardworking, talented and committed group from the entertainment and business communities," said Inside Broadway executive director Michael Presser in a previous statement. "Inside Broadway's aim is to pass down the rich legacy of musical theatre to future generations so that the magic, music and universal themes of the genre are not lost but rediscovered and made relevant for today's youth and our honorees this year have each without a doubt greatly contributed to that cause."
