How is Broadway reacting to the inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris?
January 20 marks the inauguration of the 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden, alongside the first-ever black, Asian-American, female vice president Kamala Harris.
How is Broadway reacting? We've compiled their posts across social media as they rejoice in the new leadership of our country, the moving performances from stars like Lady Gaga (who sang the National Anthem- watch here!), Jennifer Lopez, Garth Brooks, and the first National Youth Poet Laureate, Amanda Gorman.
For the next month I'm going to tingle every time I hear the words "Madame Vice President"

I'm breathing again, deep and full. I'm weeping for the beauty of this moment and the hope of our nation. May we be guided by our better angels and blessed by a forgiving and gracious God. ??

Grace, decency, unity, truth, justice. These are words that make up the fabric of our democracy. These are words that will reverberate through the sacred halls of our government. A new day begins. The work begins.

When I met @JoeBiden he treated every person with such equal respect and attention - no matter who they were. He makes you feel like an instant friend.
That's the kind of President I believe he will be - a President who cares about everyone.
Happy Inauguration Day! ?? pic.twitter.com/LjXQXkJgkC- Megan Hilty (@meganhilty) January 20, 2021
