A new festival format debuts from 14 to 16 August in Kingston, New York. The three-day event is presented as the first open-air festival built entirely around Broadway performers and musical-theatre fans.
Performers include Audra McDonald, Christopher Jackson, Kelli O'Hara and Renée Elise Goldsberry. A highlight of the programme is a 30th-anniversary reunion of Rent's original cast.
Alongside concerts, the programme includes cabaret shows, sing-alongs, comedy segments, themed raves and unexpected artistic collaborations, in a deliberately community-focused format of two to three thousand people.
