Broadway is back! A swag of productions that were forced into an extended hiatus, upstaged by Covid, are back in theatres on the Great White Way. The return to the business of show coincides with the 74th Tony Awards ceremony. The event takes place on September 26th at The Winter Garden Theatre on Broadway.
