Tony Award nominee Norm Lewis, currently starring in The Gershwins’ Porgy and Bess on Broadway, will be the Master of Ceremonies for the third annual Broadway Salutes. The event will be presented by The Broadway League and the Coalition of Broadway Unions and Guilds (COBUG) at the Times Square Visitors Center on Thursday, September 20.

The event recognizes the myriad of artists, technicians, and craftspeople who have made Broadway great for decades. There will be a meet-and-greet and pinning at 3:30pm, followed by the ceremony at 4:30pm.

Broadway Salutes will also give special recognition to those individuals working today who have worked 25, 35, and 50 years in their respective theatrical craft — including stagehands, wardrobe workers, hair and makeup artists, theater owners, actors, producers, playwrights, casting directors, general managers, publicists, ushers, designers, musicians, directors, choreographers and more.
