About Us | Broadway In The Park

About the Festival
Broadway In The Park is a four-night summer event in Recreation Park that features a family-friendly Broadway musical, pre-show performances by community groups, local vendors selling fresh and tasty box dinners, and early evening picnics on the grass. Themed like a turn-of-the-century town square, complete with popcorn lights and roaming costumed performers, guests can enjoy a unique and memorable night out under the stars.

Our Mission

The mission of Broadway In The Park is to serve the South Bay with professional summer theatre, provide a forum for local artists to present their work, and foster community support of the performing arts.

To sum it up...

Food, friends, and a Broadway show... under the stars!

"Excellent! Reminded me of my childhood when this kind of experience was common."

Community Pre-Show

Each night before the main event, we showcase local performing arts groups on our stage – from youth theatre troupes to barbershop quartets to dance companies – helping them put their talents on display and get more exposure in the community.

Community Outreach

Broadway In The Park is dedicated to serving the South Bay in a meaningful way, sharing the joy of the performing arts and community togetherness with people of all ages. We achieve this by:

Offering free tickets to under-served youth from Los Angeles County.
Providing deep discounts for children (40% off) to purchase tickets.
Charity Partners: featuring a local charity each night at our festival, donating 10% of our gate sales for that evening toward their program. Additionally we give their representatives a chance to speak directly to our audience before the show begins. Last year's Charity Partners included The El Segundo Education Foundation, Tree Musketeers, ES Community and School Bands, and the El Segundo Auxiliary of L.A. Children's Hospital.
