The evening will allow artists to explore what it means to “open doors” for themselves such as navigating ambition, setbacks, and opportunity as part of the next generation of performers. Blending sincerity and humor, Opening Doors celebrates community and collaboration, connecting artists from across the city to share their stories through song. It’s a heartfelt, high-energy night about the process, the people, and the pursuit of creative dreams in New York City.
