Rosie Kicks off 12th Annual Kid's Night on Broadway

Rosie O'Donnell, a13-time Emmy Award-winner, will serve as the National Ambassador for this year's Kids' Night on Broadway. Sponsored by Madame Tussaud's New York and The New York Times, Kids' Night allows young people, ages 6 - 18, the opportunity to see both Broadway and Off Broadway shows for free when accompanied by a full-paying adult. It will be held February 5, 6, 12 and 13.

Ms. O'Donnell will cut the ribbon prior to the three-hour "Fan Festival," which is being held at the Madame Tussauds on West 42nd Street. The ribbon cutting is scheduled for 2:45 PM today and will be followed by brief remarks by O'Donnell and a performance by Rosie's Broadway Kids.

According to newsday.com, The Madame Tussauds event, on Feb. 5, will showcase a theatrical makeup station, dance lessons and offer karaoke show tunes. Broadway actors will be on hand to sign autographs. No doubt....this is a very special opportunity for ALL kids.
