BroadwayCon, the theatrical gathering that brings fans together alongside Broadway’s biggest talents, returns January 27-29, 2017, at the Javits Center with an expanded slate of programming.
Co-presented by Playbill, Mischief Management and Anthony Rapp, the one-of-a-kind weekend includes panels, performances, one-on-one star moments, seminars, autograph and photo sessions, a booming Marketplace and other activities.
After a successful inaugural event at the midtown Hilton, BroadwayCon is increasing its theatrical footprint, which will allow more attendees to experience the one-of-a-kind event.
The BroadwayCon MainStage will seat over 5,000 guests (more than three Majestic Theatres), while the second stage will now seat more than 2,500 (comparable to last year’s Main Stage).
BroadwayCon 2017 will also offer six programming rooms, and a BroadwayCon museum that will double in size. Attendees will also enjoy a larger BroadwayCon Marketplace that will welcome even more Broadway-affiliated organizations, book and play sellers, independent crafters and exhibitors, Broadway-inspired charities, and official BroadwayCon merchandise.
Confirmed to appear at BroadwayCon 2017 are George Takei, Carolee Carmello, Okieriete Onaodowan, Reed Birney, Julia Murney, Tina Landau, Ryann Redmond, Jay Armstrong Johnson, Kelli O’Hara, Cynthia Nixon, Christopher Jackson, Christine Ebersole, Santino Fontana, Norm Lewis, Ana Gasteyer, LaChanze, Des McAnuff, Seth Rudetsky, Jonathan Groff, Celia Keenan-Bolger, Lena Hall, Lisa Howard, Lorin Latarro, Laura Osnes, Lesli Margherita, Alex Brightman, Jenn Colella, Christopher Gattelli, Marc Kudisch, Geneva Carr, Beowulf Boritt, Kathleen Marshall, Max von Essen, Jeremy Jordan, Tony Yazbeck, Rob McClure, Ann Harada, John Cameron Mitchell, Benj Pasek, Justin Paul, Javier Muñoz, Fredi Walker-Browne and Rebecca Luker.
