The Broadway League, formerly the League of American Theatres and Producers, Inc., created in 1930 as the League of New York Theatres and Producers, is the official trade association for the commercial theatre industry. The League’s 600-plus members include theatre owners and operators, producers, presenters, and general managers in 240 + North American cities, as well as suppliers of goods and services to the theatre industry. Each year, League members bring Broadway to almost 30 million people in New York and across the US and Canada.

On behalf of its members, the League negotiates collective bargaining agreements with all theatrical unions and guilds; coordinates industry-wide marketing and communications initiatives and corporate sponsorships; oversees government relations for the Broadway industry; maintains research archives and databases; works to make Broadway tickets and information more accessible to the consumer; invests in the future of the theatre community through audience development programs; and supports charitable efforts for the benefit of the entire theatrical community.
