Last year's spectacular 10th anniversary celebration raised a record $466,717. It featured a spirited 66-person cast of Broadway and screen stars backed by a live 13-piece orchestra.
What began as a small, grassroots concert performed at The Center in 2006, quickly grew into an highly anticipated event presented in Broadway's best theatres. In its 10 editions, Broadway Backwards has raised more than $2.4 million for Broadway Cares and The Center.
