The Show Must Go On: Broadway’s Response to the 9/11 Attacks

9/11 marked one of the few times in Broadway’s history that the Theater District dimmed its marquees and shuttered their doors. Reopening two days later, Broadway would play a major role in New York City’s revitalization in the aftermath of the attacks. In conversation with Museum Director Clifford Chanin, Tony award-winning actor Matthew Broderick, Tony award-winning actress Judy Kaye, Tony award-winning director and choreographer Jerry Mitchell, and former Broadway League president Jed Bernstein reflect on the history of Broadway following 9/11, how the industry responded to the attacks, and the role of the arts in times of tragedy.
