Broadway Inspirational Voices Launches 30th Anniversary Season With Celebratory Concert

Broadway Inspirational Voices (BIV), the Tony Award honored nonprofit and renowned Grammy nominated choir composed of Broadway performers, will commence its 30th anniversary season with a “30th Year Kickoff Concert.”

The celebratory concert will take place Monday, September 9th, 2024, at St. Paul & St. Andrew United Methodist Church (263 W 86th St), with all tickets priced at $30.00 in honor of BIV's 30th year. Dedicated to spreading positivity and fostering change through the power of music, Broadway Inspirational Voices has touched the hearts of audiences worldwide since its inception 30 years ago.

The kickoff concert centers around the anniversary season's theme of “Celebrating the YES!” honoring the way it all started. Through powerful songs from gospel to Broadway, personal stories of inspiration, and surrounded by community, BIV will celebrate 30 years of “Yes,” bringing feelings of joy and jubilation to every heart in attendance. BIV is under the artistic direction of Allen René Louis.

“Founded nearly 30 years ago by Tony and Grammy-nominated artist Michael McElroy, Broadway Inspirational Voices began in 1994 when many of those impacted by AIDS and AIDS-related complications came from within the Broadway community and saw a profound need for hope, unity and inspiration,” said Angela Grovey, Executive Director of BIV. “Three decades later, we've been honored to serve communities in need through uplifting choir performances and our signature arts, education and outreach community programs, including children to seniors to criminal justice initiatives.”

All proceeds from the event will go towards Broadway Inspirational Voices' initiatives, which include community outreach programs, music education efforts and collaborative projects that bring the joy of music and the arts to underserved populations.
