Fans and stars flock to BroadwayCon

Theater fans came from near and far to the first ever BroadwayCon at the Hilton Hotel in Midtown. The three-day event features performances, workshops, autograph signings, and more, with some of Broadway's biggest stars stopping by.

For the performers here, the event offers a unique opportunity. And for the thousands of guests who gathered for the opening show, this event is about more than entertainment.

BroadwayCon runs through Sunday evening. While the storm is on its way, the show will go on come snow or shine.
