June is Pride Month!

Join us as we celebrate Pride Month and honor the rich contributions that members of the LGBTQIA+ community make to our society. Broadway Stages values diversity and promotes inclusion of experiences, talents, and culture. We stand in solidarity with members of the community in seeking respect, equality, and justice for all, in all areas of life.

NYC Pride’s 2021 official theme is “The Fight Continues.” We are excited that this year’s Pride March programming includes “March Pop Ups” that will “reimagine the typical Pride March Float experience,” supporting Manhattan businesses by using their outdoor seating areas while engaging out of work designers and artists. This is a great way to show your support for local businesses and artists that have suffered as a result of the pandemic, something we are committed to do every day! Learn about 2021 New York City Pride events, including the June 27 NYC Pride March, at NYC Pride (check their website for program and schedule updates).
