The casts of dozens of Broadway shows, as well as such stars as Kevin Spacey, Vanessa Redgrave, Jennifer Ehle, Xanthe Elbrick, Swoosie Kurtz, Jan Maxwell, Martha Plimpton and Julie White, took part in the annual concert "Stars in the Alley," which was held in Shubert Alley (West 44th St., west of 7th Ave.) on June 6th at 11 AM.
Stars in the Alley featured performances and special appearances by Broadway's most popular musicals and plays, including Tony Award winners and nominees. Participating shows included: Beauty and the Beast, Chicago, Company, Curtains, The Drowsy Chaperone, Frost/Nixon, Grey Gardens, Hairspray, Inherit the Wind, Jersey Boys, Journey's End, Legally Blonde, Les Miserables, The Lion King, Mamma Mia!, Monty Python's Spamalot, A Moon for the Misbegotten, The Phantom of the Opera, The Pirate Queen, Radio Golf, Rent, Spring Awakening, Tarzan, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, Wicked, Xanadu, and The Year of Magical Thinking.
For the first time ever, Broadway fans were invited (through June 3rd) to vote online for their favorite play and musical and enter to win a "Night on Broadway" prize package. Spring Awakening and Coram Boy earned the titles of "Fan Favorite" at this year's concert. Nominees included currently running shows, as well as any show that opened in the 2006-2007 season. Announcing the winners were Max Crumm and Laura Osnes, who were voted the favorite "Danny" and "Sandy" by America and will star in the new production of Grease, opening on Broadway on August 19th. This year the annual Star Award, which recognizes an individual in public or government service who has demonstrated significant support for Broadway, was presented to The Actor's Fund of America to honor the Fund's 125th Anniversary.
