The Broadway League and the Coalition of Broadway Unions and Guilds took time November 7 to honor the artists, designers, staff, and crew who have been keeping stages lit on the Great White Way for 25, 35, and 50-plus years.
Tony Award winner David Hyde Pierce, currently starring as Horace Vandergelder opposite Bette Midler in Hello, Dolly!, hosted the ninth annual Broadway Salutes, which took place at Sardi’s Restaurant in New York City.

The event honored not just actors, but agents, attorneys, box office treasurers, casting directors, choreographers, composers, designers, directors, dressers, managers, musicians, orchestrators, producers, publicists, stagehands, stage managers, stylists, theatre owners, ticket sellers, ushers, writers, and many more theatre professionals “who have dedicated their careers to the success of Broadway.”
