Event Calendar.

Latiné characters, narratives, and performers have been part of Broadway since Broadway began, yet that history is rarely at the center of the story Broadway tells about itself. Drawing upon the research that went into his book-length study of the topic (Latin Numbers: Playing Latino in US Popular Performance), award-winning performance historian Brian Eugenio Herrera will invite questions from those assembled to guide a lively interactive discussion about the history of Latiné presence (and absence) on and beyond the Broadway stage.

This panel brings together some of the most visionary Latiné and Hispanic creatives in the Broadway industry to explore their background, the importance of representation, and the role of mentorship. The conversation will also focus on attracting Latiné and Hispanic audiences to Broadway, empowering the community, and what currently fuels their creative passions. Moderated by Bianca Marroquín, featuring Maija Garcia, Moisés Kaufman, Sammy Lopez, and Sergio Trujillo.

Concord Theatricals Recordings has released the original cast recording of Here We Are, David Ives and Stephen Sondheim’s critically acclaimed new musical, on 2-LP, 180g opaque baby blue vinyl. In celebration of the vinyl release, the all-star original cast will sign copies of the album at the Museum of Broadway, just off Times Square (145 W 45th St, New York, NY 10036). The event will take place on Wednesday, October 9 from 5:30–6:30pm. Museum admission must be purchased separately. All attendees are required to purchase a copy of the album onsite.

Join us for a special live reading by journalist and author Barry Singer from his book EVER AFTER, the definitive history of the past forty years of the Broadway musical. Mr. Singer has invited a central figure from his EVER AFTER narrative to read with him: Rocco Landesman, President Emeritus of Jujamcyn Theaters, legendary producer of the original Big River, Into the Woods, Jelly’s Last Jam and The Producers, as well as Angels In America, among many others. Performing songs from Big River will be the original, Tony-nominated Huck from the 1985 production, Daniel Jenkins.
