Inside Broadway

Inside Broadway is a non-profit performing arts education organization and children's theatre company based in Midtown Manhattan, New York.

It began when Presser was asked by Bernard Jacobs, then-president of The Shubert Organization, to create a student ticket program for the Broadway production of Cats.

Taking place inside the Broadway theatre where the show is playing, these presentations consist of performances from the actors and demonstrations from the stage crew with the set, props, lighting, and sound design.

The goal of these programs is to educate students about the various different careers present in the theatre industry, as well as to highlight the contributions that behind-the-scenes workers make to a Broadway show.

Other honorees in recent years have included Chita Rivera in 2019 (specifically the recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award),[17] Ramin Karimloo in 2017,[18] and Renée Fleming in 2015[19] Inside Broadway receives annual funding from the following New York City and State government agencies:[20]
