Jed Bernstein Broad Quotations

It is truly history in the making that the country music world is coming to New York, and joining with Broadway for such a wonderful, unusual and entertaining event. This special concert, performed by some of the superstars from both worlds, will not only highlight the similarities and universality of these two seemingly different genres, but also help expand the audience for each style of music.

The New York Education Grants have been extremely successful in helping to provide unique Broadway experiences to young people, many of whom may not have had the opportunity to go to the theatre before. Education programs are crucial for the growth and survival of Broadway, as they encourage young people to develop a lifelong appreciation of the arts.

The cost of producing both the live show in Times Square and the television broadcast was prohibitive this year. We look forward to bringing BOB back to television next year.

Unlike books and products that are available everywhere, Broadway isn't distributed that way. Even if you love everything Oprah tells you to do.

Broadway now is presented in about 90 cities across the United States, and the touring business seems to continue to be very healthy.

Broadway has had a long tradition of performing even during the most difficult circumstances, and we look forward to continuing in that tradition during this transit work stoppage.
