Peters will be joined by Urinetown's Charles Shaughnessy and other Broadway stars for the Macy's kick-off event.

To date, Kids' Night on Broadway has provided hundreds of thousands of kids the chance to attend live New York theatre. In a statement last season League President Jed Bernstein said, "The Broadway community is committed to providing opportunities for young people to experience the magic of live theatre. Kids represent the next generation of our audience, and we believe that by making it easier for parents to introduce young people to theatre, Broadway is making a vital investment in its future."

Tickets to Kids' Night on Broadway will be available Oct. 31-Nov. 13 only. For more information, go to www.kidsnightonbroadway.com or call the Broadway Line at 1-888-BROADWAY.
