Lea Michele, Keanu Reeves, Ethan Slater and More at Variety’s Broadway Breakfast
This Broadway season’s biggest names — from Lea Michele and Aaron Tveit to Keanu Reeves and Kristin Chenoweth — gathered over frittatas and coffee at Variety’s annual Business of Broadway Breakfast.
A preview of the fall’s buzziest shows, the event featured conversations with “Chess” stars Michele, Tveit and Nicholas Christopher; “The Queen of Versailles” actors and creatives Chenoweth, F. Murray Abraham, Stephen Schwartz, Michael Arden and Lindsey Ferrentino; “Waiting for Godot” leads Reeves and Alex Winter,” as well as “Ragtime” stars Caissie Levy, Brandon Uranowitz, John Clay III and director Lear DeBessonet.
“What a beautiful thing it is to be a part of a community where people devote their time and energy, whether or not they’re getting paid, to creating art, to creating something that speaks to people,” said Ethan Slater, star of “Wicked: For Good” and the upcoming play “Marcel on the Train,” who hosted Monday’s event. “And thank you, Variety, for giving this community a place to eat without having to pay the bill.”
