The Binghamton Pride Coalition is presenting its fifth annual cabaret performance of Twisted Broadway. “It's Broadway numbers with a twist,” said this year’s director, Jarod Hinton. “They're performing Broadway numbers and doing them with people of the opposite gender from what they're traditionally done. So men do women's numbers, women do men's numbers. And it's a whole lot of fun.”
Some of this year’s performances include numbers from Newsies, The Book of Mormon, and Spamalot.
The cabaret also raises money to provide scholarships to LGTQ+ youth. “It's been successful to get youth some money for college or whatever their continuing education is,” said Binghamton Pride Coalition’s Director Chris Water. “ It's been a good way for us to give back to the community. So twisted Broadway has been fantastic because it helps us raise that money to be able to give those scholarships out every year.”
This year’s Twisted Broadways will be at the Cider Mill Stage in Endicott on June 15th. The show begins at 7:30pm.
