Laura and celebrated music director and accompanist Grammy Award winner Billy Stritch provided a sold-out Worcester audience with an unforgettable night.

Eric Butler Nurtures City’s Thriving Theater Scene

November 18, 2022 – For quite a while Broadway in Worcester has been giving its Facebook page a very Worcester theatrical look by having pictures of local personalities superimposed on Broadway shows, and pictures from Broadway shows superimposed on local settings and landmarks.

Broadway In Worcester is a wonderful organization. I always enjoy talking with students and offering my advice whenever I can. The BrickBox Theatre is very versatile and both Seth Rudetsky and I had a ball performing in the space. It was a pleasure to work with Eric Butler.”
