NYMF's Next Broadway Sensation 2014 Names Winner

Kathryn Allison has been chosen as the winner of NYMF's Next Broadway Sensation 2014 (NNBS). The competition took place at New World Stages (340 W. 50th Street) and gave nearly 200 singers the chance to be crowned this year's champion.

Produced by NYMF in association with New World Stages, with support from the ASCAP Foundation's Irving Caesar Trust, this annual talent competition seeks to find the newest musical theatre star. Allison will receive a special solo concert produced by NYMF.
