A BroaderWay Foundation Note from Idina, 2011

Hello Friends! It's called Camp BroaderWay! Go to the link below to read more and send us your thoughts and positive vibes!

A BroaderWay Foundation (ABW) was created in 2010 by Idina Menzel, Taye Diggs, and a passionate group of artists, activists and social workers with a basic goal — amplifying the power of young women through the arts. I want to share some very exciting news... I am opening a performing arts camp (with my husband Taye Diggs and some of our closest friends), for young girls from underserved communiti

es. This Summer, August 2011, we will collaborate with a special group of girls to create a completely original piece of theater to be performed on a New York City stage. We are still connecting all the dots, but I am proud to say that Jeanine Tesori, composer extraordinaire, will be up at camp with us, guiding the girls and structuring a piece around them. My fans are the most generous and kind in spirit so I couldn't wait to tell all of you about this new endeavor. All my love,

Idina

PS- This has been a dream of mine ever since I played Nancy in Oliver at Camp Olympus back in 1982.

What a night! ✨ Celebrate This Way was an unforgettable evening honoring 15 years of ABW’s impact and coming together in support of youth across NYC. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we raised over $1 million to help power life-changing programs and opportunities for young people through the arts.

During the global racial uprisings in 2020, ABW's songwriting cohort collaborated to create lyrics and melodies for a song that would reflect their thoughts.

Several ABW artists from the Broadway community recorded vocals remotely, to give voice to the words of our Future Leaders. Singers: Lilli Cooper, Samantha Williams, Sophia Stephens, Abby C. Smith, Bongi Duma, Sydney Morton, Aaron Kaburick, and Darren Biggart. ABW Graduate Songwriters: Briana Dent, Bianca Marcelino, Sienna Maloney, and Alyssa "Little A.T." Turton.
