This event is produced by James Wesley Jackson, Seth Rudetsky, Bruce Cohen, Robb Nanus and Jeff Metzler. Directed by Schele Williams with music direction by Seth Rudetsky, the evening will include musical performances and energizing calls-to-action by a diverse slate of leaders, celebrities and surrogates.

Broadway Rallies for Kamala will be performed in front of a live, invited audience and live streamed nationally for free right here at BroadwayWorld at 7:30pm ET.
The evening event will be paired with a daytime virtual phone bank, Kamala Dial-A-Thon, with volunteers participating in making one million phone calls alongside Broadway and Hollywood talent to help get out the vote. Broadway for Harris is partnering on the dial-a-thon with Swifties for Kamala, Women for Harris, White Dudes for Harris, Musicians for Harris, Queers for Kamala and more. Sign up to join here.
