A bevy of Broadway’s brightest stars joined a sold-out audience on March 11, 2019, to celebrate and motivate the LGBTQ community and its allies through gender-reversed renditions of beloved show tunes, spectacular choreography and a record-breaking fundraising total at Broadway Backwards.
The 14th annual edition of the show raised $704,491 to benefit Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS and The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center in New York City. The previous fundraising record was set last year at $680,273.
Broadway Backwards (#BroadwayBackwards), which was produced by Broadway Cares at the New Amsterdam Theatre, featured a cast of 130 performers and a live, 12-piece orchestra.
Broadway Backwards creator Robert Bartley wrote and directed this year’s show. Mary-Mitchell Campbell served as music supervisor; Ted Arthur and Christopher D. Littlefield were music directors. The evening's choreographers were Robert Bartley, Karla Puno Garcia, Paul McGill, Mimi Quillin, Stephen Reed and Robbie Roby. The creative team included lighting designer Timothy Reed, costume designers Johnna Fettinger, Jess Gersz and Natalie Loveland, prop designers Jenna Snyder and Alexander Wylie and sound designers Kurt Fischer and Marie Renee Foucher. The production stage manager was Jeff Brancato.

that almost kiss was exactly what kevin price would've wanted
restingsarha price on price action?? h m m
TURN IT OFF!!!
ThAt'S iT
tHe MiSsIoN pReSiDeNt!!!
Eventually it’ll be “and Tony Winner Andrew Rannells”
...but for the moment it's "and Tony winner Gavin Creel". Rannells can't be far behind.
After being robbed from his Tony like half 1 million times
It'd better be
as techie I just have to acknowledge how good the spot operators are
Same!! I’ve been spot op-long for years and hopefully someday I can do it professionally, watching videos like this I always end up focusing on the spot ops and it just makes me happy to see :)
i feel bad for all the techies that worked w us in our musical, i move around alot when acting or singing and the poor spotlight guy had to follow me around during my scenes T_T my teacher had to keep telling me to stop pacing around
ANDREW’S SMILE IS MY FAVOURITE THING
I love these men more than I love some members of my own family.
Also, Andrew was having *so much* fun, it made my little heart happy.
Update: Watching this for the millionth time and Gavin's little "Hi, Andy" at 0.55 is so damn cute.
Ikkkkk
gavin did not come to PLAY with that choreography i love him so much
this is the most iconic masterpiece i’ve ever seen
the amount of gay energy i-
i need these two to always work together from now on please and thank you
this and the take me or leave me duet with aaron tveit and gavin and the most amazing duets broadway has ever seen i'm speechless
Linda Leonzini Gavin is very successful
I’d like to raise you the 16 going on 17 one with andrew
@@karmic_punishment aww i love that.
YES!
Yes! I also saw Gavin and Andrew preform Youre Nothing without me thats another one of my favs
Did anyone else notice the doorbell and wave as a reference to BOM at 3:55? Life = complete 😍
Oh myyy God, damn well spotted!
That entire little dance a second before it is basically spooky mormon hell dream as well tbh
ok I know that im late to this but following the BOM reference there is a West Side Story reference with the clicks. :)
i dont know much dancing so these might not be specific to the musical but the references i got in that section were:
3:35 the jump from newsies and maybe more idk??
3:43 the dancers in the middle doing the thing from the jellicle ball in cats, while the ones behind doing the bottle dance from fiddler?
3:45 gavin and andrew doing the hot honey rag from chicago
3:49 the rich mans frug from sweet charity
3:50 idk what the group in the middke are doing (is it turkey lurkey??) but the left one is jazz hands from pippin or maybe just fosse (also a lot of the beginning with the dancers seems to evoke fosse plus the outfits)
3:53 anything goes? it could be other things
3:55 as the other person said book of mormon and the group on the left do that west side story move
3:58 the bit from cool from wss
and then the chorus line bit which is one reprise from acl i think?
If it has Andy Randy in it its already great add Gavin Creel aka the owner of my heart to it and you have the most awesome duet ever
ANDY RANDY OH MY GOD
Gavin’s dancing is underrated.
Super underrated
They've picked some interesting songs and shows this year. I love it!
DAMN GAVIN SIS WENT OFF
Gavin and Andrew's talent takes my breath away.
Their harmonies are kill me. I love it!
I don't think they did harmonies?
King Boo Lowrey they didn’t lol
This is a dream come true?
Andrew Rannells on his own is incredible but Gavin Creel owns my heart so these two together? Make me so incredibly happy?
This performance is amazing 💕
WhenFairiesHelp I guess you could say it was something.... incredible
Can we please take a moment to appreciate those beautiful suits?
This is beautiful. But why in the description is BOM not part of Andrew's bracket?
Also...
Hi AnDy - Gavin Creel
Pretty sure they only include recentish projects to remain topical for the year? Idk most people already know Andrew was in bom at this point so they're just mentioning other things he's done.
Two pretty best friends
i don't understand how i can feel so star struck
so i'm ready to put this on loop till the end of time
Rannells quit saying you can't dance. Babe you are amazing. Omg I didn't know how much I needed andy in a fadora til this moment
The way their voices melt...Plus at the end I was like Kev don't kiss yourself pretty pls (Gods I have problems)
BIG PRICE ENERGY
My skin is clear, my crops are watered, I'm so damn gay and this is amazing
Andrew Rannells and Gavin Creel make a very cool duo. They should do another duet together.
the most powerful duet broadway’s seen in a while
my heart is actually beating along to the beat of the song i’m shook
At the start i was like: OMG WAIT IS THAT ANDREW RANNELS?!
then i see the entire title and i crie of happiness.
“hI aNdY”
0:55
they did the BOM "hello" wave at 3:55!
Their voices sound. SO. GOOD. TOGETHER. WHAT. IS. LIFE. I feel blessed to exist at the same time as this video
I am fricking mesmerized
WHO ALLOWED THEM TO BE THIS ADORABLE?!
I’ve watched this so many times and I cannot peel my eyes from Andrew. Gavin could be doing literally anything and I wouldn’t know.
literally entirely vice versa for me!! they both seem to have done well but i couldn't look away from gavin, he is magnetic
I love how happy Andy Randy looks to be in this
that one girl backup dancer without heels is chef kiss
there are so many robbed tony nominations in this video
The duo I never knew I needed.
