ORIGINAL PROGRAMMING RECEIVES 2021

EMMY AWARD® NOMINATION

New York, NY (June 30, 2021) – Broadway On Demand was honored with a 2021 Emmy Award® Nomination in Outstanding Arts and Popular Culture Programing for their original series Broadway Master Class. The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) announced the nominees Monday, June 28^th during a virtual event hosted by Courteney Cox on Emmys.com.

The critically acclaimed series Broadway Master Class is part of Broadway On Demand’s wider offering that is dedicated to bringing training from Broadway stars and creators with over 250 episodes of content, featuring more than 100 Broadway icons and 45 Tony Award® Winners including programs on acting, dance, producing, directing, audition technique, accent courses, business coaching, performer focused fitness and more.

Broadway On Demand, a division of Broadway Licensing, celebrates and encourages diversity and inclusion in the arts. In service of this mission, and amid the COVID-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement, Broadway On Demand created a series of arts programming, featuring Broadway’s finest and most diverse artists from various fields in the industry.

“Last year we saw a need for theatre lovers and theatre makers at all stages to continue feeling connected to Broadway during the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Sean Cercone, President/CEO Broadway On Demand. “We set out to create a series that encourages diversity and inclusion and that would allow industry legends to share their insights, challenges and their craft directly with those audiences. It is a true honor to have the Emmy’s recognize the importance of Broadway Master Class to our industry.”

Producers for Broadway Master Class are Sean Cercone, Ken Dingledine, and Jeffery Keilholtz.

The Daytime Emmy Awards Lifestyle Programming ceremony will be presented on the Emmy® OTT platform on Sunday, July 18, 2021 at 8 p.m. ET.
