The Broadway League and The Coalition of Broadway Unions and Guilds will now present the third annual Broadway Salutes at the Times Square Visitors Center, on Tuesday, September 20 at 4:30pm.
This public celebration honoring the myriad of artists who have helped make Broadway great, was previously announced to take place in Father Duffy Square, but has been moved indoors due to the impending weather forecast of rain.
Special guests will include Raul Esparza, Kathleen Marshall, Bebe Neuwirth, Christine Quinn, and Leslie Uggams.
The event will honor the achievements of professionals celebrating 25, 35, and 50+ years in their respective theatrical craft. Among the 2011 honorees are 25-year inductee Paula Chase, 35-year inductee Pat Dale and 50-year inductee Gerard Burns.
Broadway Salutes recognizes a wide-range of theatre professions — including stagehands, actors, producers, managers, theater owners, press agents, ushers, agents, make-up artists, dressers, designers, directors, choreographers, musicians, casting agents and more — who have dedicated their careers to the Broadway industry.
