'REBELS! ON BROADWAY' Coming to The Ordway This Fall

Ordway Center for the Performing Arts will present BROADWAY SONGBOOK: REBELS! ON BROADWAY, Sept. 23-25 and Sept. 29-30, 2016.

Whether dealing directly with racism in shows like Hamilton and Shuffle Along, religion in The Book of Mormon, anti-Semitism in Cabaret, political corruption in Fiorello or sexuality in RENT, Broadway has always been, and will always be, subversive. Broadway Songbook: REBELS! on Broadway will explore the many shows in which Broadway has held a mirror up to society and challenged the status quo.

Tickets: $37. Visit www.ordway.org/performances/broadway-songbook-rebels for tickets and more information.
