BROADWAY CARES FLEA MARKET GOES VIRTUAL ON SEPTEMBER 20
September 14, 2020, 6:24.33 pm ET
The coronavirus may have shut down theaters, but it won’t stop the biggest day for Broadway fans as the annual Broadway Flea Market & Grand Auction returns on Sunday, September 20 in a virtual format.
That’s right, Broadway Cares is moving the highly anticipated event online with all the features you love from the in-person event: live and silent auctions, one-on-one video chats with Broadway stars and the opportunity to bring home theatrical collectables.
Early bidding has already begun on many silent and live auction items, including virtual Zoom meet-and-greets with Jonathan Groff, Bernadette Peters, Sarah Jessica Parker, Matthew Broderick and John Benjamin Hickey, Ben Platt, and Alan Cumming, as well as a Halloween costume worn by Tom Hiddleston, a musical phrase from “Waitress” handwritten and signed by Sara Bareilles, and a signed edition of Barbra Striesand’s Christmas CD, to name a few.
As always, every dollar donated during this event will help those across the country affected by HIV/AIDS, COVID-19 and other critical illnesses receive healthy meals, lifesaving medication, emergency financial assistance, housing, counseling and more. The donations also support and champion organizations focused on social justice and anti-racism.
