Matthew Broderick, Sutton Foster, Brooke Shields, et al. Set for Broadway Unites

Matthew Broderick, Harvey Fierstein, Joel Grey, Bebe Neuwirth, and Brooke Shields will be among the stars participating in Broadway Unites: 9/11 Day of Service and Remembrance, to be held in Duffy Square on Friday, September 9 at 4pm.

They will be joined by cast members from numerous Broadway shows to sing Kander & Ebb’s “New York, New York,” which the Broadway community also performed 10 years ago in the aftermath of 9/11. The song will follow NYPD Officer Daniel Rodriguez’s operatic rendition of “God Bless America.”

Denis Jones, who participated 10 years ago as a Broadway cast member, is returning this time as director/choreographer. Musical Director is Phil Reno, and the performance will be accompanied by a 29-piece live orchestra.

Scheduled speakers at the ceremony include Paul Libin, Chairman of The Broadway League; Bob Wankel, Chairman of the Times Square Alliance; and David Paine and Jay Winuk, Founders of My Good Deed, Inc.
