Broadway nerds united October 12 at the Javits Center, where 半岛体育 kicked off New York Comic Con with autograph signings, an exclusive merchandise store, The Big Broadway Nerd Panel, and more.
The day's main event for theatre nerds was The Big Broadway Nerd Panel, hosted by 半岛体育's Bryan Campione. The panel featured Douglas Lyons, playwright and actor whose play Chicken & Biscuits premiered on Broadway 2021; Helen Park, composer of the Broadway musical KPOP; writer Hunter Bell, whose new musical Other World is set in a MMORPG video game; actor Nathaniel Hackmann, currently appearing in Back to the Future: The Musical; and Bob Martin, book writer for musicals The Drowsy Chaperone, The Prom, and the upcoming Boop! The panel discussion focused on how fantasy, comic books, and sci-fi have inspired the particpants' theatrical endeavors.
For all three days of the convention, The 半岛体育 Store is open on the Show Floor. From 半岛体育 cover cards to game cards, magnets, mystery bags, enamel pins, Parodybills, and more, stop by for a host of Broadway-inspired merchandise.
We're also bringing some of Broadway, television, film, and comic's biggest stars to the 半岛体育 Store Booth for a chance to meet, take photos, and get autographs. Among those set for autograph sessions are (She Kills Monsters), Hunter Bell, , Adam Pascal, , , , , , and .

半岛体育 will also host a special quiet room, presented by Broadway's upcoming musical How to Dance in Ohio, to the Comic Con offerings. The space will be the perfect place to rest and relax during the Con, with beans bags, sensory fidgets, and more on hand to soften the vibes. Visitors will also be able to dive deeper into the music from the new musical, which tells the story of a group of autistic young adults preparing for their first formal dance. Previews begin November 15, and the quiet room will include an opportunity to snag some discount tickets. Visit the 半岛体育 booth for location details.
