Change of plan: Just got a press release from The Broadway League affirming that all the Broadway theatres will go in on the dimming of lights on March 12. Good to hear, and it means that the theatres where he had his successes will be part of the event.
“After further consultation among the Committee of Theatre Owners and reflecting on the impact of Hinton Battle, the Committee has shared with his family that all Broadway theatres will dim their lights in his honor on March 12, 2024, at 6:45pm for one minute,” said Jason Laks, Interim President of The Broadway League. “As we continue to remember Mr. Battle’s remarkable talent and array of roles, the decision was made to dim all lights as the most appropriate way to recognize his legacy on Broadway and within our community.” |
