The 2015 Broadway Teachers Workshop -- 3 days, 4 shows, 8 workshops and master classes -- will kick off in July, featuring special guests: Broadway legend Chita Rivera (THE VISIT), Tony winner Christian Borle (SMASH, SOMETHING ROTTEN), Tony nominees Brad Oscar and John Cariani, Broadway music supervisor David Loud, Broadway choreographer Josh Rhodes, the Story Pirates, and the cast and creative teams from all the shows included in this year's lineup!

This is a 3-day intensive workshop on Broadway that includes your ticket to 4 shows with post show cast discussions; 8 workshops and master classes with Broadway performers, creative teams, and production staff; and peer sessions throughout.

The Broadway Teachers Workshop is designed to inspire teachers and directors of middle school, high school and college theatre and arts with new teaching methods, enhanced production skills and an exchange of ideas with peers and professional Broadway artists.

3. SOMETHING ROTTEN: From the co-director of THE BOOK OF MORMON and the director of ALADDIN - and producer of AVENUE Q and IN THE HEIGHTS - comes something original, something fresh...a world-premiere musical comedy about the musical comedy that started it all.

4. KINKY BOOTS: Winner of six 2013 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, KINKY BOOTS features the first-ever Broadway score by Grammy winner Cyndi Lauper, a hilarious yet moving book by four-time Tony winner Harvey Fierstein, and direction and choreography by two-time Tony Award winner Jerry Mitchell (LEGALLY BLONDE, HAIRSPRAY.)

All sessions are held at Broadway's Lyric Theatre. Enter through the Stage Door at 214 West 43rd Street, between Broadway and 8th Avenues.
