Why is it important to you to be a part of Broadway Bares?:
You can talk about the magic & the support of the Broadway community, but to actually be in that room when hundreds of people come together to be creative in giving back to those who need this help is aspirational. You leave with an overwhelming feeling in your heart like it’s going to burst. Feeling that energy, I think, reminds everyone that this community only gets stronger every year.
