Broadway Barks

Broadway Barks, the starry dog and cat adoption event benefiting New York City animal shelters and rescue groups, will return for its 27th edition this summer to help four-legged friends find fur-ever homes.

The event, produced by Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, will again take place in Shubert Alley. Festivities begin at 3 pm and celebrity presentations of pets from citywide shelters and rescues begin after 5 pm. It will be hosted by Bernadette Peters, the legendary, Tony Award winning co-founder of Broadway Barks and star of this season’s Stephen Sondheim’s Old Friends. She’ll be joined by co-host Beth Leavel, her Old Friends castmate and fellow Tony winner.
