After watching Broadway’s best on NBC and CBS this Thanksgiving, combat your turkey-induced coma with Kristin Chenoweth, Matthew Morrison and Michelle Obama. On November 26, TLC’s Broadway at the White House will follow an all-day symposium on show business for students in public arts high schools and after-school programs.
The event is hosted by Chenoweth and Morrison (currently starring in Finding Neverland), produced by Harvey Weinstein, with special appearances by the First Lady, Something Rotten! Tony winner Christian Borle, Whoopi Goldberg, Gloria Estefan (subject of the bio-musical On Your Feet!), The Gin Game’s Cicely Tyson and more.
The program gives about 40 students the opportunity to attend master classes, workshops and Q&A panels exploring acting, directing, design, composition and more. The event will aso feature performances from Fun Home, An American in Paris, School of Rock and more.
