PNC Broadway in Louisville
“We are beyond thrilled that Broadway is back!” said Leslie Broecker, President of PNC Broadway in Louisville. “We were able to bring back two long-awaited returns and four Louisville premieres this season, all of which provide a kaleidoscope of cultural experiences and themes. This programming also creates an opportunity to expose more youth and underprivileged students to the arts in 2022-2023 and we take that responsibility to heart.”
