10 Videos To Kick Off Black History Month
Celebrate the black artists of the industry all month long.
It's February 1st, 2023, and Black History Month begins today. For the next twenty-eight days, everyone should celebrate our Black citizens, support their work, enjoy their artistry, read up on their achievements, and learn, recognize, acknowledge their greatness. Hopefully, when March 1st rolls around, we will all have a little more history in our brains, a little more reverence in our hearts, and some memories of great shows presented by our Black friends and family members working in cabaret and concert.
When it comes to the business of show, the Black artists of Broadway and cabaret have left an indelible mark on the industry and art form through contributions that have changed the world and our lives. These consummate creatives have given generously and continue to, every day, and Broadway World Cabaret is proud to start Black History Month with these videos of ten such performers, all of whom will be appearing on the New York City stages of cabaret and concert in the upcoming weeks.
