Photographer Jenny Anderson (who shot our Classic New York Films and our Broadway Replacement Stars series) brings BroadwayBox backstage for an exclusive series capturing Broadway companies getting ready to take the stage. Most recently, Jenny went backstage at Broadway's Longacre Theatre, home to our favorite musical of 2018, Broadway's acclaimed, new musical comedy The Prom
. Scroll on to see this incredible company preparing to bring joy and laughter to Broadway audiences.
Let’s kick it off with The Prom queen herself, Tony winner Beth Leavel, whose performance as Dee Dee Allen must be seen to be believed.
