The concert is directed and produced by Robert W. Schneider, host of the podcast Behind the Curtain: Broadway's Living Legends. Schneider and host of the podcast Backstage Babble, Charles Kirsch, will co-host the evening, introducing performances and anecdotes from some of the show's original cast and creators. Frederick Miller is the dramaturg and Michael Lavine will be the music director.

The works of such artists as Cy Coleman, Barbara Fried, Carolyn Leigh, Johnny Mercer, Bob Merrill, Sandy Wilson, and more, will be featured.

The third edition of Broadway Bound: The Musicals That Never Came To Broadway will feature songs from such lost musicals as Arthur: The Musical, Daddy Goodness, Goodbye to Berlin, The Graduate, and many more.

A portion of the event's proceeds will be donated to the Dramatists Guild.

Tickets, starting at $35, are still available.
