Video: Watch Tributes from BroadwayWorld's 20th Anniversary Celebration

Sunday night was a very special occasion here at BroadwayWorld. The best of Broadway gathered at Sony Hall to celebrate a huge milestone- our 20th Anniversary. The concert event benefitted Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. The night was hosted by legendary Tony-winner Chita Rivera and popular BroadwayWorld host Richard Ridge and even included a Proclamation from the Mayor's Office, naming May 21, 2023 as BroadwayWorld Day in New York City.

Under the musical direction of Kevin Stites and the direction of Richard Jay-Alexander, the star-studded concert line-up included performances and appearances from the previously announced Shoshana Bean, Liz Callaway, Mario Cantone, Jenn Colella, Kurt Domoney, Myles Frost, Debbie Gibson, Olivia Hardy, Brittney Johnson, Constantine Maroulis, Donna McKechnie, Orfeh, Hugh Panaro, Seth Rudetsky, Marc Shaiman, Christopher Sieber, Blair St. Clair, Paulo Szot, Elizabeth Teeter, Natalie Toro, Jessica Vosk, and Josh Walden.

Broadway legend Chita Rivera co-hosted our big night alongside BroadwayWorld's own Richard Ridge. Which Chita moment does Seth Rudetsky live for? He explains in this very special deconstruction!

The celebration also unearthed two vintage videos. The first made by Marc Shaiman as a hilarious tribute to BroadwayWorld's message boards community in 2004. The second a flashback to one of Randy Rainbow's most beloved Chewing the Scenery episodes from 2014- Randy Rainbow Lip Syncs Patti LuPone's Autobiography.
