The 30th Annual Easter Bonnet Competition, produced by and benefiting Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, will be held April 25 at 4:30 PM and April 26 at 2 PM at the Minskoff Theatre, home to the Tony-winning musical The Lion King.
The Easter Bonnet Competition is a two-day event that celebrates six weeks of intensive fundraising efforts by Broadway, Off-Broadway and national touring productions.
Performers from participating shows sing, dance and wear elaborate Easter bonnets made especially for the Competition. The winner of the Easter Bonnet Competition is the company that raises the most for BC/EFA in weeks of curtain-call fundraising, beginning March 11. Awards also are given for best bonnet design and best presentation.
Hosts, judges and special guests will be announced in the coming weeks.
Last year's Easter Bonnet Competition raised $4,711,386. Since 1987 the 29 editions of this annual event have brought in more than $63.3 million.
