See Kelli O’Hara, Jessie Mueller, and the casts of Wicked and Chicago at the 5th Annual Broadway Celebrates Earth Day Concert in Times Square. Full lineup, show times, and neighborhood location info for April 25.
If you are using our Virtual Office services, you already know the prestige of having a Manhattan presence. But this Saturday, April 25, that neighborhood presence comes with a front-row seat to one of the most exciting free events of the year. Whether you are swinging by the office to check your mail or you are in town for meetings, you will want to clear your afternoon for the 5th Annual Broadway Celebrates Earth Day Concert.
The energy in the neighborhood is going to be incredible. As part of the citywide Car-Free Earth Day, Broadway will be closed to traffic from Union Square all the way up to our neck of the woods in Times Square. It’s a rare chance to see the Crossroads of the World completely open to pedestrians, filled with art, music, and community action.
