Broadway Celebrates Earth Day Concert hosted by Times Square Alliance and Broadway Green Alliance is back for the third year in a row!
Taking place on Saturday, April 20th from 11 a.m.- 3 p.m. in the heart of Times Square. The concert will be held on Broadway between 45th and 46th Streets showcasing performances from Broadway’s top talent and young performers from around the region.
“The Times Square Alliance is thrilled to partner once again with the Broadway Green Alliance and the Department of Transportation to present a free Broadway Earth Day concert as part of Car-Free Earth Day,” said Tom Harris, President of the Times Square Alliance.
Live performances include Broadway performers Lissa deGuzman (Wicked), Courtney Reed (Moulin Rouge), Nic Rouleau (The Book of Mormon), and Tony Award Nominee Anika Larsen (Almost Famous) and students from Cassie Okenka Voice Studio join the lineup of young performers taking the stage.
“I love the Earth Day concert in Times Square and am excited to be participating again,” said Tony Award Nominee Anika Larsen. “It’s always so fun and inspiring and galvanizing. This year, I’m especially excited about this celebration because if there ever was an election year to think about saving our planet, this is the one!”
The concert highlights the Broadway community’s commitment to raise awareness about the climate emergency towards a more sustainable future. Additional guest speakers include Earthjustice, Final Strike Collective, and Chantal Bilodeau, Founding Artistic Director of the Arts & Climate Initiative.
“Broadway in Times Square has been a leader in providing more space to pedestrians and we look forward to joining all the other neighborhoods throughout the five boroughs as we celebrate our public spaces and the great programming we can bring to them,” said Harris.
If you cannot make it, problem at all! Broadway Celebrates Earth Day Concert will be live-streamed, offering audiences around the world the opportunity to join this musical celebration of sustainability.
