"'Broadway on Broadway' is a great way to kick-off the new season with the best of Broadway performing live on a giant stage in the heart of Times Square," stated League of American Theatres and Producers President Jed Bernstein. "Every fall, this is a unique opportunity where thousands gather for a live sneak preview of the hottest Broadway shows on the coolest street in town. New Yorkers and tourists alike will enjoy this free Sunday concert."
