our table sponsors and underwriters, whose contributions lay the
foundation on which to build a successful event.
A special thank you to the members of Musical Theatre West

of Charlie Baxter, a street performer (or busker) and Libby, whose star is about to be on the

Since 1991, MTW’s Education and Outreach
Program has held special weekday performances
to introduce children to live musical theatre. We
are pleased to say that to date over 165,000 kids
have attended these performances.
Over the last six
years MTW has also
gone into the schools
with specially-written
assemblies that demonstrate both the educational
and entertainment value of musical theatre.
With the current cuts in arts education in the
schools, these experiences may be their only
exposure to live musical theatre, as well as
their only field trip during the year. Judging
by the expressions on their faces and their
interactions with the cast, it’s an experience
they won’t soon forget!
Since the inception of the program 11 years ago,
our Footlighters have awarded over $56,000 in
scholarships to deserving local students. We are
particularly honored that since the inauguration
of the NHSMT Awards in New York City 5 years
ago, MTW Scholarship Winners have won 3 out
of the 5 years.
Thanks to your support, MTW has been able
to expand its conservatories and workshops
and to help Wilson High School reinvigorate
their drama program, helping produce their
first musical in ten years. We look forward to
continuing these programs in the coming years.
Your participation in Broadway in the Park helps ensure that Musical Theatre
