2016: Nerds…

1976: The Baker’s Wife…

1965: Pleasures and Palaces…

Those three titles alone can stir the hearts of musical theatre fans who ask, “What could’ve been had these shows debuted on Broadway?”

Broadway Bound: The Musicals That Never Came to Broadway offers a behind the scenes look at the musicals that were supposed to come to Broadway but never did…told by the actors, writers, and directors who were there!

From producers with no money, to actors who wouldn’t go on, to shows that were way ahead of their time, Broadway Bound will introduce New York audiences to the shows that were supposed to find a home on the Great White Way, all sung by an all star Broadway cast.

The concert will be co-hosted by author of The Untold Stories of Broadway, Jennifer Ashley Tepper, and host of the podcast, Behind The Curtain: Broadway’s Living Legends, Robert W. Schneider.
