The initiative was announced today by Job producers Hannah Getts, Alex Levy, Craig Balsam, and P3 Productions. Job is running at Broadway’s Hayes Theater through Sunday, October 27.
“When we had our world premiere [Off Broadway] last fall, aside from our beloved Peter Friedman, the oldest person on the Job team was 35 years old,” said Friedlich in a statement. “Now that we are at the Hayes, it is important for other emerging artists to see that there is a place for their work on Broadway. Thanks to a team of amazing donors and in partnership with Broadway For All, we are able to make that dream a reality.”
Broadway For All artistic director Osh Ashruf said, “Creativity fosters creativity. We’re grateful to everyone associated with Job for recognizing the importance of sharing this work with the next generation of theater makers.”
Donations and grants for the Next Gen Ticketing Initiative can now be made through Broadway For All.
