The inaugural Broadway Festival of South Florida (BFSF) will take place from July 21 – 23, 2017 at Miramar Cultural Center. On July 23, the closing event of BFSF will be a Broadway song contest with as many as 30 participants singing their best Broadway song. New York Broadway Director/Choreographer/Actor Baayork Lee (A Chorus Line, Promises Promises, Flower Drum Song), Writer/Lyricist/ Director Gerard Alessandrini (Writer/Director of Forbidden Broadway and Spamilton), and Carbonell Award Winning Director/Choreographer Ron Hutchins will serve as panelists, giving participants valuable feedback in an open forum and selecting a winner.
We invite performers, aged 18 and up, and all styles to participate.
