Broadway Backwards, the annual Broadway extravaganza celebrating the LGBTQ+ community through the great songs of musical theater, returns to Broadway’s New Amsterdam Theatre on Monday, March 13, 2023. The beloved evening, produced by Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS and benefiting Broadway Cares and New York City’s Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center, and its star-studded cast will embrace love and self-expression in true Broadway fashion. Your favorite Broadway stars, backed by a live orchestra, reinterpret classic and current songs of musical theater into anthems of LGBTQ+ experiences. Broadway Backwards creator Robert Bartley takes up the director’s mantle again this year, joined by associate director Lauren Gemelli. Bartley, Mimi Quillin, Adam Roberts and Luis Salgado are the show’s choreographers. The event began as a grassroots concert performed at The Center in 2006 and has grown into one of the most anticipated annual celebrations on Broadway, raising a record $758,582 in 2022.
