Meet the Endangered List.

We’re working to preserve history before it’s history. Whether the team involved with the show is aging or passing away, the Broadway run was short, or there are active political efforts to erase narratives related to the show (like attacks on historically marginalized voices), this list serves as a guiding light in Wait in the Wings’ preservation & documentation efforts.

Do you have stories to share involved with the Broadway or pre-Broadway history of these shows? Send us an email at juliannawitw@gmail.com!

To suggest additions to or upvote shows on the Endangered list (and to add ideas to our documentary brainstorm list), check out this form.
